'The Killer In Me'
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.
I'm making the song my theme song. Ironically.
You know, I loved Legos as a kid so seeing the movie was fun for me. And we have superglued some of Frisco's Legos cause he can't handle it when they break. But the sheer WTFness of the movie kept me interested.
And I loved Batman.
Seriously, I can't get that song OUT OF MY HEAD.
And Batman stole the damn show.
Batman was great! Loved his dance mix theme song:
"Darkness...No Parents...."
It doesn't seem that funny now but "I only build in black" had me laughing.

"...and sometimes dark grey."
"Darkness...No Parents...."
Blacked out curtains....in a basement.....
Webcomic relevant to the Lego movie: [link] (To my shame, I had to read the mouseover text before I got it. In my defense, it's after midnight and past my bedtime.)
We laughed more than the kids in the audience. That was fucking hilarious. And it had the best Star Wars joke ever. Ever.
I was pretty much in from "piece of resistance," and it only got better from there. It was all so clever and fun and there was that moment with the cat poster where the BELIEVE sparkled and I really really wanted something to happen with the cat AND IT DID AND I WAS SO HAPPY.
Everything is awesome.
It should come as no surprise to anyone that my kids and I have been asking each other "Where are my....PANTS?" for the past week.

The 50 Most Romantic Movies Ever Made – Flavorwire
I haven't seen a lot of these but this list includes a lot of my favorites: My Beautiful Laundrette, Amélie, Go Fish, Maurice, Secretary, Roxanne, Lost in Translation (my fave of all these), Harold and Maude, Before Sunrise, and The Princess Bride. (I still need to see Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Brokeback Mountain and Blue Is the Warmest Color.)
