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.

I don't suppose it will be about people buying scores of booster packs in search of the one card that will complete their deck or arguing about whether or not the card their opponent just played was made illegal by the latest rules revision.
Or about 10-year-old card brokers who rip open a pack and dicker their cards to the people standing around till they've parlayed their mediocre rare and uncommons into a 300% increase on investment.
That kid is either a millionaire or in prison by now. Or both.
The news was met with baffled laughter in our house.
