And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

That ep was creepy, especially when we see the daughter in the window at the end. t shudder

move out and draw fire

The only good thing in Cloverfield was that the HUD was named Hud. And that's my attempt to damn with faint praise, because otherwise I would have just repeated what Jilli said.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

That ep of Carnival was just fucked UP. That bothered me too! I turned to Beau afterward and said, "what kind of twisted shit are we watching?"

Because books.

I loved that episode of Carnivale. Totally creepy.

I forgot Tep doesn't watch horror. Oops. But I'm gratified everyone else thought Cloverfield was as stupid as I did. Characters were completely too stupid to live. Halfway through I was rooting for them to get to Central Park West and find Beth dead. Ah well. Lesson learned.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Haven't read it yet. Ebert is often spoilery.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

For serious! Speaking of Cloverfield, he spoiled Hud's fate in the very first paragraph. What the hell.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Also a test subject, have read Watchmen, am seeing it tonight.

With 13 other people, most of who have read it. I'm excited.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I enjoyed Cloverfield

I skipped Cloverfield, because of the whole unsteady-hand-held-camera-induced-nausea thing....
