le nubian, nope. You have it backwards.
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
FYI, Avengers Labor Day Weekend reappearance lasts through Thursday. So you haven't missed your chance to see it big screen again.

P-C,

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Well, it doesn't appear to be showing anywhere nearby, anyway. Phooey.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
so are you telling me the imdb listing is wrong?
Correct. I don't know if we're still spoilerfonting Batman Begins, but just in case: Moviewise, it was apparently a fake-out. Ken Watanabe's character was a figurehead; when Ducard confronts Wayne in his manor, he reveals that he is the real Ra's al-Ghul.

a-ha. That is what I thought, but the imdb thing fucked me up.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I seriously could have sat in that theater all afternoon watching it over and over. DAMN, I'm glad I went.
Damn, now I wish I'd gone.
We saw it tonight; 5th time for me, 3rd for Tim. My god, Chris Evans' ASS. And Jeremy Renner's arms. Where is that picture of Renner with rope? Did I bookmark it?
t edit Oh, yes: [link] Hello.

6th time for me tonight, still the funnest. This time the new thing I spotted was that they made the Hulk's hair gray where Mark Ruffalo's is. Patterning the Hulk on the actor's appearance and doing motion capture with him really made a difference over the other two movies, I think. He seemed pretty real instead of like a figure from a videogame cut and pasted into the scene.
I watched Natasha's fight with Clint more closely this time around, and they had her pulling a lot of moves like biting and knocking him into objects rather than just out-punching him. I approve.

Every time I see it, I love Natasha more.

ITA. The Hulk seems as real as any of the actors. I wonder why no one did it before. I guess it's just much more expensive than CGI.
I love it that Hulk can talk and is clearly intelligent. Next movie I want a brief scene where Hulk looks over Stark's shoulder at some equipment and says something like, "MAGNET FIELD DEFLECT ION BEAM! GENIUS" and Stark says, "oh! uh, yeah, got it, thanks big guy" and everyone boggles. It's still Banner, after all. There's no reason to think he loses all his intelligence and knowledge; it's just that Hulk is normally too angry to give a shit about deflected ion beams.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
There's a great scene in one of the episodes of the current Avengers cartoon where Tony is looking over some schematics or something and Hulk asks him what he's doing. Tony replies with some techno-babble followed by "But I guess you wouldn't understand." Hulk looks at him and gives a curt summary of what Tony just said. "Oh, I guess you would."
