Sorry, ita, the conversation about one of the Coreys(Thinking of old-school "Simpsons" now, on a lighter note) having been molested. Suddenly, the drugs, drinking, and...just carrying on, sort of fit more of a profile, not that being young with more money than a small African nation and lots of people kissing your (not-literal) butt leads to great judgement very often, either,
I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Michel Gondry film is Michel Gondry-y: [link]
Gondry and Wes Anderson should switch off and direct each other’s films, and see if anyone notices.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yeah, that doesn't sound good. Unless Cornish takes the mantle.

They have different flavors of twee.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

A friend of mine was in XM:DOFP. He played one of the reporters (that's his day job) towards the end of the pandemonium when Magneto rips the bunker out and drops the stadium over the White House (nice move!) he's one of the talking heads. Like chin to hairline, whole head. Freaked the fuck out of me (like he did in Nine Whole Yards) just appearing at a not particularly tense part of the movie and making me gasp.
Last time I checked, for his day job he has a drive time radio show in Toronto, so he's not exactly waiting tables in the 15 years between movies.

Dear filmmakers, movie named Godzilla, not Ford "Forrest Gump" Brody's Incredibly Monster-centric World Tour.
I was well entertained whenever the camera focused on the title character. Unfortunately, it seemed as if the other hundred minutes or so the director thought it would be more interesting to pan away and concentrate on Aaron Taylor-Johnson's flat affect and amazing ability to survive being repeatedly almost stepped on instead.
