Despite knowing, in some sense, that Jessica Chastain was in the movie, I completely did not recognize her, between the hair color and the accent.
Me neither! She just vanished into that role.
Oh, look at the pretties!

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.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I sort of recognized Jim Beaver, and I knew it was someone from Deadwood, but I had to check the cast list to be sure. He was quite good.
I thought it was Jim Beaver, but I wasn't positive, and it took me a long time to be sure because I realized I'd never heard him speak with a non-Southern/Western accent. I started to hear the Beaver in his voice after a while and felt more confident it was him, and the credits confirmed it.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I have to be honest: The Night Before does not look like my type of movie at all...but it has Anthony Mackie and JGL. Damn it.

In case anyone wants to save $15 tonight, don't bother with Spectre. It's awful.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Friend of mine said he couldn't review Spectre because it was so boring he couldn't remember what happened. So, I fully expect my movie-watching friend* will want to see it next weekend.
\*The friend I usually go to the movies with. Not the only friend who watches movies.

I'm going to see it next week as part of a work gathering. At least it's at a theatre that serves snacky food and booze.

That's too bad, I was liking the ads. Not that I have had any success in getting to a theater, but it was on my list of movies I might try to see.
Still working on getting to The Martian and Crimson Peak.

"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
I'd say either of those should be higher priority.
I think I'm going to go see Girl in Woods next week at the indie film fest, as it's near a place I want to go for Memphis Downtown Dining Week. Alas, Carol and the Whit Stillman-hosted anniversary showing of Metropolitan were sold out.

Oh, wow, Metropolitan! I love those movies. Barcelona is probably the one I quote most often, but they're all so good.
Also, dining week! I'm jealous. I think my local restaurant week is coming up in January which wifi be here before I know it, but still, Memphis Downtown Dining sounds great.
