Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

After watching the Hulu featurette, I'm even more excited about Les Miserables. Vocal performances on camera.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wow. I'm watching Cabin In The Woods (yeah, last person ever) and it's really hard to look away from. Like, I can look away from anything, but this has made me paranoid of missing stuff. Good job, team.

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

I will be interested in your reactions to the ending of the film. I was really with the movie until the last third.

I still don't know what I think about that last third of the movie.

I'm not finishing it before tomorrow at the earliest, so I'll be back then.

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

Whereas the last third was what made the movie super awesome for me.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I'm with P-C on this. I loved the all-hell-breaking-loose...literally of it. Plus Bradley Whitford's final moment made me laugh and laugh.

Hey. New board.

I liked the last third. I thought the last 2 seconds was kind of a dumb shot, but was thematically just fine.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

The literal-mindedness of the last 2 seconds made me laugh almost as much as that other thing.

I pretty much liked the whole thing through. They made it about The Cabin in The Woods from moment 1 in a way that I was surprised by I--I liked not having to work things out, just wait as they revealed more--they weren't ;treating like the mystery formula was new or amazing or surprising. I liked all the characters pretty much too, across the board .

Jesse and Chris looking hot, but I bet Johann auditioned for it. I wonder if Colin did...

Rian Johnson poses as an Arclight employee and gives the opening spiel for the midnight screening of Looper. Awesome.
