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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
That scene perfectly encapsulates the core problem with this movie, too - absolutely gorgeous visuals that are 100% destroyed as soon as anyone opens their mouth. Except Eddie Redmayne, who understands.

But it passes the Bechdel test!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
So in this Kingsman movie, is most of the focus on Colin Firth's character, or on the kid with the annoying voice who plays Millar's stock snotnose punk protagonist?

I have been conned into go to see 50 Shades tomorrow. It is a testament to my friendship with K that I am doing this. So, I think I will need a drinking game to get through the movie. I'm afraid to Google.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
When something onscreen makes you want to drink, drink?

Suzi, smuggle in some rum. I hear it's even worse than I thought.
Regarding Kingsman, I read a disturbing spoiler about the end of the movie and I don't want to go see it if it's true. When someone here has seen the movie, I would like to know if it's true.

No need to smuggle in booze (though I may bring my flask anyw) as the theater we are going to delivers alcohol to your seat.
I have incredibly low expectations. At this point I'm hoping it is so bad that everyone will be laughing at it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
