Host ,'Why We Fight'
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 saw Bridge of Spies last weekend: it's the right kind of movie to take your elderly father to.
... that's about all I have to say about it. It's a Spielberg historical drama in which Tom Hanks has integrity and all the women wring their hands.

In case anyone wants to save $15 tonight, don't bother with Spectre. It's awful.
I should have listened to you.
To be fair, it was late and I was tired and I fell asleep and missed crucial plot points probably but since the plot of the movie was basically "Bond goes here and then Bond goes here and then Bond goes here and then Bond goes here" welp.
It's like they thought, "Remember how everyone loved Skyfall?? Let's...completely disappoint everyone this time instead."
Not everyone loved Skyfall.
I liked parts of Skyfall. Not the parts where the beautiful house burned or M died or Vesper died, though. So. Really, not much of it. My memory of Skyfall is fond because the first thing K. and M. and I did on our first night in London was go see it at a fancy cinema. Like you do.
(Spoiler font in case someone hasn't seen it who might want to.)
Blood oath it is. Crimson Peak looks like it has already left my local theater, so I will make getting to a slightly more distant showing a priority this week before those go away, too.
I see from Natter that you take your blood oaths very seriously, -t!
Ha! The turnips will affirm, I mean to see these movies!
I did not hate Spectre. I didn't love it and do not need to see it again, but I enjoyed myself in a moderate fashion. Loved the skeleton-tastic pre-credit sequence, and both M and Q getting to actually have arcs. Doctor Bond Girl was dull, though, so the second half of the film suffered from having so much of her in it.
Does Craig get naked in this one?
Saw The Martian! Without even a blood oath. Good one.
