'Trash'
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.
It's in fact an iteration of the character that I'm fairly sure would have the original chanting, "Kill it, kill it with fire."
Pretty much, yes. And I was so giddy with hope when the news of an Addams Family musical was first announced! But alas, no. And when it was here in Seattle last month, everyone kept asking me if I was going to go, if I was excited about it, and so on. I felt like such a killjoy (and not the MCR kind, dammit) for Holding Forth about the wretchedness of it.
Oh my God, Frank, you're completely right. I KNEW I knew that plot already, but the title kept slipping away.
The guardian movie--anyone have a first (or maybe second, amateur) hand opinion?
Wow, those commenters did not like your DH not liking it. His explanation seemed pretty simple, though. Not sure why it went over any heads.

It's more than a little rude to insist that anyone who isn't does, though. If you are backing things up to the the events they're co-opting, you're still excluding a fuckload of kids.
And if I'm to believe Ethan, the premise seems to be that if you do not believe, you're fucking the world over.
I'd flip the movie the bird too.
I was rolling my eyes at the people who would say that, because fuck them.
I was actually disappointed not to see (there might be by now, there should be) the "Actually, Easter ... Eostre ... stuff yadda" arguments, but I still think they are poopy heads.
Wikipedia says the following:
hence the saying, "to breed like bunnies"
Uh, that is not my bunny saying. Who are you, my grandmother? Mr. Bowdler?
Interesting conflation, tho.
Thanks, Jilli. Next time I'll ask before I buy tickets. Maybe it will at least be pretty? Our local theater was having a black friday sale, and it was the only musical I could get TCG to agree to. We're also going to see another silent film with the live Wulitzer like we did last year, and at least I know that will be fun.
