Why is Piz in the movie? No one likes him. He is yukky.
River: The human body can be drained of blood in 8.6 seconds given adequate vacuuming systems. Mal: See, morbid and creepifying, I got no problem with, long as she does it quiet-like.

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.

Some interesting omissions, as mentioned.
I want someone to explain to me how the Academy decided that The Lone Ranger deserved a nomination for best visual effects, but NOT Pacific Rim.

DO NOT APOLOGIZE FOR THE ASSCAPS ABOUT THIS. I HAVE BEEN RAGEFLAILING AT THE INFAMOUS BLUEJAY ABOUT THIS SINCE THE NEWS BROKE.
I figured Pacific Rim wouldn't get many nominations. But to not even be nominated for Best Effects? WTF.

It'll be THE HOBBIT: WE'VE GOT AN AMAZING FUCKING DRAGON anyway, so I can't be too bitter. Much as I loved giant robots versus monsters, Smaug kicked ass.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I totes give it to the dragon, because DRAGON!, but I'm guessing it'll go to Gravity.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I would have liked Smaug more if he had been punched in the face by a giant robot.

And now I'm picturing Sherlock facing off against a transformer. Hilarious.

I finally saw Catching Fire tonight. It was good! And made pretty good sense out of the crazed ending of the book.
And I did not get carsick watching it, although now I have a headache and feel a little nauseous. Bah.
