Radcliffe is too damn young for Bilbo Baggins, who is a rapidly-approaching middle aged hobbit in the book. That's the whole point about him taking off for his Big Adventure--it starts out as a midlife crisis.
Can we maybe vote on the whole murdering people issue?

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 am the fly who dreams of the spider
ita, because I really despised what Jackson and company did with LotR and really like Ten Inch and McAvoy.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I highly recommend (500) Days of Summer.

Has anyone seen Public Enemies yet? I'm at the theatre to see it right now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Aw, I loved (500) Days of Summer, too! That Joey Gordon-Levitt sure has grown up well. Also, Sophia will be interested to know that Matthew Grey Gubler is the best friend.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Do other parents of Totoro-loving toddlers spend as much time as I do piecing together the loose ends? (Like, why do the kids hide from the guy they think is a police officer in the beginning? What's the deal with the mom's mysterious illness?)
My current scenario is that mom has a brain tumor and assaulted a police officer but got off on an insanity defense.

I was very "meh". I thought that considering the acting talent, it was pretty dull. I felt by the end of it that Mann wanted to having old-timey shootouts. Looks good and the acting was good.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Jessica, IIRC Totoro is set in the immediately post-War Japan, and the "policeman" might be an occupation soldier. But it's been so long since I watched it that I'll just have to make the sacrifice and watch it again soon....

Sue. I really liked it, but I was easily pleased by the pretty. I wish men still dressed that way.
