Paul Rudd just went on Conan to promote his new movie, and instead of a clip of This Is 40 he gave them one from Mack & Me.
Strong like an Amazon.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
This 40 thing is the most tempting Apatow to me, like, ever, and that's no small amount due to the leads. I like them. Maybe DVD. Or if there's a gap after Hobbit 2D HFR.

The Hobbit opens here today, mostly in 3D with subtitles. Will the subtitles float in the air? That would be cool.

Jessica, regarding your whitefont,
I was vastly amused by how little of him they showed. Having seen Danny Boyle's Frankenstein via NTL multiple times, I'm really excited about the motion capture aspects of Smaug--Cumberbatch is ridiculously good with making unnatural physical motions for a human seem natural.

There are actually already a number of subtitles--elves dwarfs, each using their own.
No floating.

Art Crawl!!!
But floaty subtitles would have rocked.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
We saw Hobbit again last night, and, while the audience sees the Ring fall out of Gollum's...pocket(?), Bilbo can't see the ground from his hiding place. He doesn't go straight over there when he gets out, so I think it's a fair read that he does happen upon it and may not be sure that it came from Gollum until "What does it have in its pocket?"

So I finally saw Lincoln. That was a good movie with a killer cast (Hal Holbrook! I had no idea he was still alive), and surprisingly funny in spots. And not nearly as leadenly manipulative as I expected from Spielberg, except for the very end.
Plus, Tony Kushner in less than 3 hours, which must be some kind of record.

Hey. New board.
Apparently, the script for Lincoln they ended up using was essentially the first quarter of the original treatment he turned in.
I thought it was a phenomenal movie. As was Silver Linings Playbook. An interesting one-two punch, too!

Just saw Hobbit. Yeah, lots of extra stuff, but what was there was interesting. Andy Serkis is amazing.
