Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Thanks le n. It's funny how one reference...Peter Jackson, of all people...can set off an interesting conversation. That's one of the many things I love about this community.

InMovieNews, I watched Bottle Shock the other day...I confess it was because I'm an Alan Rickman completist...and enjoyed it more than I expected to.

I remember when that blind taste test occurred. I lived in Northern California and my father was into wines and my grandmother lived in Napa. The lowly NoCal vineyards were completely gobsmacked and that area just exploded with commerce.

"Bottle Shock", as a malady? Never heard of it...but I'm no man's oenophile.

I just saw an ad for a new miniseries on IFC - Bollywood Hero, starring Chris Kattan, apparently as himself (there's a clip of a guy begging him to do the Roxbury dance, and Kattan doesn't want to do it). He's apparently in India to star in a Bollywood musical. I'm not a very big Kattan fan, but I really want to see this.

Those are some awesome T-shirts. I have a friend who totally needs the "Big Trouble..." and "Tron" tees.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What was the Federation called in the Mirrorverse? 'Cuz I love their symbol of the Earth with a huge knife running through it. I need a t-shirt with that design....

According to Wikipedia, it's the Terran Empire.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The 2009 Venice Film Festival line-up was announced today, and one of the more interesting-looking films screening out-of-competition is Alex Cox's Repo Chick, described by the director on his blog as decidedly not a sequel to his own Repo Man, but "a story of different characters in a different world." And yet, Cox notes, that hasn't stopped Universal Studios from sending him a "cease and desist" letter, which he's chosen to ignore. So Universal has apparently decided to pull a two-year-old Jude Law organ-stealing vehicle called Repossession Mambo off their shelves and release it next year as Repo Men.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Oh for goodness sakes.

Versus is an excellent time. It's sort of like Evil Dead 2, but with Yakuza. And then you add in a little bit of Highlander, and a touch of Police Squad.

And the zombies with guns are fantastic.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

I just picked up that DVD, Strega. Will try to watch it very soon. Heard good things about it, so nice to hear some confirmation.
