I just got back from it, Scrappy! Yes to everything you said, and also Mary Elizabeth Winstead rules. She does some great face-acting in this movie, and her character is resourceful as fuck.
I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I told my mom she might enjoy it, but my nose is too out of joint about them slapping the Cloverfield name on Valencia/The Cellar at the last minute as a blatant cash grab. Stick to Star Wars JJ, it seems like you're actually doing things right for that franchise somehow.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I hope all the Matrix/Zack Snyder slo-mo is just for the trailer and not in the movie.

Ladies who like Sebastian Stan (and Fed Pete, if you do too), do yourselves a favor and go see The Bronze while it's still playing on the big screen. Trust me, you'll thank me later.

Apparently, appreciating him is the best thing you're going to get out of the movie.

True, but I do think the movie is worth seeing apart from him. Melissa Rauch's character is very hard to like, but after the first 20 minutes or so I did find myself rooting for her. And Gary Cole is his usual awesome self.

Airplane trips were full of movies this past week:
Creed, The Danish Girl, Mr. Holmes, and Gravity.
Creed was amazing. Gravity anxiety attack inducing.

Gravity seems like a terrible movie to watch on a plane!

In hindsight not the best choice, but I managed. Interesting compared to The Martian which in many ways is similar, but did not ping me in the same ways.

I tried to watch Gravity on TV at home and that first crack-the-whip spacewalk scene with Bullock and Clooney sent me diving for the remote. I'll just have to take everyone's word for how great the movie is.
