I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

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.

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

Now the live action is being merged with CG animation and motion-capture creatures, and then transferred into 3-D.

Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen

Is the Red Queen a motion-capture creature? Her body looks distorted.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

It looks like either mo-cap or some sort of hybrid of mo-cap and live.

Juliebird (and Scrappy, and anyone else), if you want to see Jeff Daniels portray a well-known historical figure in what I think is a just-about-perfect performance, watch The Crossing (usually seen on History Channel or Biography around July 4 or Christmas), where he plays Washington during the whole crossing-the-Delaware and Battle of Trenton. He is terrific in the part--in charge, beseiged by Brits and Hessians opposing him in the field and backstabbing Yank generals opposing him in camp, and yet able to crack a joke about Henry Knox not swamping the boat during the river crossing.

Who knew that Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter would look like Madonna?

move out and draw fire

Hmmm....now I may have to convince the DH to go as the Mad Hatter for Halloween, so I can go as the Queen of Hearts. Nifty costumes and makeup! (DH will no doubt prefer to be Chris Lee/Jabberwock)

It's the gap toothed smile. I really like the production design. The color scheme seems to come out of 19th century picture books.

so I can go as the Queen of Hearts.

Are you going to shave your eyebrows and hairline for this?

Movie Review: Year One.

Eh.

Pretty much exactly what you see in the trailers. Cera and Black do play off each other pretty well. Michael Cera is not only ubiquitous but he's also growing up tall and handsome. He's considerably taller than David Cross now which is hard for this Arrested Development fan to grasp.

It reminded me of really old comedies like Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein and the Three Stooges Meet Hercules, more than History of the World or Life of Brian.
