I'd rather see things on the big screen if I can. The cheap theater is only $3 for matinees. I missed the opportunity to go today because I had to wait for a phone call, but I'll probably go see one of them on Monday.

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.

Into the Woods isn't going to lose anything in translation to the small screen as long as you have decent speakers; I'd say Big Hero 6 is the way to go.

But, Chris Pine's chest! Across a laaaarge screen! More chest to love, IJS.

The frosted pompadour pretty much negated the appeal for me. He goes barechested in other movies without the former.

X-posted from Natter:
Philly Flower Show mystery: a scene from a movie that had a lot of people saying ""Lost: The Movie"?". There was sand, a submarine with computer screens, a hatch in the ground glowing red, lots of fuel barrels, some liquor bottles hidden in the tropical bushes, lots of what seemed to salvaged metal from military vehicles, and a cooking fire made from a side-turned oil drum. The closest I could figure is the 1959 "On the Beach". But all the other movie scenes were Disney, unless that was a red herring in this instance.
Any guesses? It's driving me nuts.

FYI: There was a color remake of On the Beach at some point.

So I finally finally watched Waitress tonight, in which Nathan Fillion is an adulterous gynecologist. (Although a very cute one.)
For a movie about adultery (among other things), it's remarkably hopeful. And mildly surprising, although when I got to the end I could see that of course it had to go there.
Still, that was fairly charming, and I'm sad all over again about Adrienne Shelly's death.

Ugh. One of the most horrifically random and pointless murders I've ever heard of. It still makes me cringe and have horrible death penalty fantasies even though I'm a true non-believer in that particular punishment. She was so wonderful in those early Hal Hartley movies. I still need to see Waitress, though.

Hey. New board.
Waitress was wonderful.
