We died at "I don't have a skull. Or bones!" He's just so matter-of-fact!
There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

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.

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

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I've heard naught but good about Frozen. Am definitely planning on seeing it.
Also miss Velvet Goldmine.

Did anyone else notice the reindeer with his tongue stuck to the ice stairs when Anna and Kristoff slide past? It was such a throwaway moment, but it was so funny! I thought for sure they'd pan back to him, but they never did!
I love Frozen so much! I actually had no desire to see it because the snowman looked extremely annoying, but I ended up really liking him.

I know! I loved that. Poor Sven.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
We're watching "Room 237", which is all about these crazy-ass conspiracies people have about "The Shining." My favorite one so far (spoilers!) is the guy who believes the movie is about Kubrick's experience faking the Apollo moon landing footage for the U.S. government.
He supplanted my previous favorite, the guy who said it was about the massacre of the Native Americans.

Because books.
I keep meaning to watch that.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I had to stop that film when the minotaur stuff came up. I laughed so loud for so long I gave myself a headache and nearly passed out. I was no more good for the rest of the night. The minotaur stuff is EVERYTHING.
The other stuff is absolutely batshit, but the minotaur thing is just amazeballs.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Desolation of Smaug was a lot of fun. It's still at least half an hour too long (there's a couple of set pieces I'd happily trade for more time with Beorn) but, you know, three more hours in Middle Earth! So yay!
Smaug is magnificent. Truly incredible.
Watching Thorin and Thranduil glare at each other, priceless.
Jilli, if you are planning to see this and want to avoid the scene with the...well, you know...hide your eyes from right after Bilbo sees the butterflies to when Thorin says "Where's Bilbo?" and then again after that little bit is done, until you hear Elvish.
Neither of the screenings I've been to have had the HFR version, so I guess I'll be seeing it a third time in theaters at some point.

My kids are already clapping their hands with glee over that movie, Jessica. It seems I'll get to see it in theaters this time. Lucky me!

Thank you for the warning points, Jessica!
Watching Thorin and Thranduil glare at each other, priceless.
That's pretty much why I want to see the movie. All hail Thranduil, King of Bitchface!
