When I saw the trailers for "Land of the Lost" my first thought was: "they are trying to fuck up some of my fondest childhood memories. I will not tolerate that."
Anya: Are you stupid or something? Giles: Allow me to answer that question with a firing.

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.

Is it too much to hope for that this movie will be a $200 million anchor wrapped around the neck of Will Farrell's career as it's thrown overboard?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Emmett will make me go see Land of the Lost. He's deeply invested in the Farrel ouevre.
I have to say, I really like Elf and Talladega Nights. How can you not like a Nascar movie that ends with two men making out on the track?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'd like to see Will Ferrell do more like Stranger than Fiction.

If it was supposed to make 200 mill and it made 199, I've heard that is a gun-in-the-mouth disappointment, so those are like, "Dang, were the theaters *open*?" kind of numbers.Del Taco numbers. I used to like Will Ferrell, but then he made whatever movie I liked twelve more times and killed it for me. Pray for a blackout in San Diego, buddy.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I think you mean 19.9, right?
I heard 19.5 - but that's not really a big difference is it when you are discussing failure.

Oh, yeah, STF was good. And I liked "Talledega," too, actually. ETA: My bad. I've got dyscalculia and read it wrong...I could kill agentkind, just by tracking opening weekend.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was just watching Will Farrell on last Thurday's Daily Show, and he didn't really indicate that anyone should go see the movie, so there you go. He actually changed the subject when Jon Stewart brought it up.

yow...that's bad. I haven't heard of that since that Dana Delany dominatriz flick.
