Fuck.
Disney Writing Down $50 Million Loss Rather Than Finishing Henry Selick’s Next Movie.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Double fuck!
Fucking Lasseter.
Same thing happened with Chris Sanders (Lilo and Stitch).
Selick shouldn't have left Laika.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
From an AVClub question about movie marathons. This sounds pretty great:
Every year since 2004, a friend of ours hosts The Kegger Of The Rings, a back-to-back marathon of all three Peter Jackson LOTR films—full, uncut versions, so about 12 hours total—with beer and themed food provided. (I don’t think she’s ever made lembas bread, but she makes a mean rabbit stew.) These days, she and her husband live in a two-story townhome, so they show the films on both floors, with the upstairs as the MST3K chat-along room, and the downstairs set aside for Shut Up And Watch The Movie Dammit types.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Okay, everyone was right, 21 Jump Street was really fun and surprisingly hilarious at times.

Basically the movie had me at Ice Cube yelling, "Hey! Stop fucking with Korean Jesus! He ain't got time for your problems! He busy...with Korean shit!"

Hey. New board.
Hot Tub Time Machine is mostly really dumb with some very brilliant writing moments. And Rob Corddry's performance is a hard-to-watch masterpiece.

Yeah, HTTM has some really great moments. And everything Craig Thompson says is gold.

move out and draw fire
I was just mentioning HTTM because we watched The Muppets last night, and I said both movies were aimed exactly at my generation, just one was aimed at teenage me and the other aimed at child me.
The Muppets was a surprisingly bittersweet and hard movie. I really liked it.

brillig
I found The Muppets kind of creepy, especially our human heroes.
