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.
Oh, as usual, dear.
Not much to contribute on the Hughes front. I enjoyed Sixteen Candles and Weird Science back in the day, but have no desire to really see either again (maybe SC). Was meh on The Breakfast Club. Missed most of the others.
And HATED Ferris Bueller with the fury of a million fiery suns. The character moreso than the movie (and I generally like Broderick). I think he is to me what Duckie is to Plei. Hate HATE HHHHAAATTTEEEDDD HIM!!!
Ahem.
NEVER TO SOON!!! POst post post.
I don't know where the link is. I just remember the slashy-slashness of it all.
Right there with you on the Ferris hate, Frank. I'd still root for the angry principal played by the creepy pedophile actor if Cameron wasn't tagging along.
New trailer for Where the Wild Things Are: [link]
That trailer looks great. I'm even more excited now!
Whoa. Me too. Fantastic.
So, I saw "Sliding Doors" for the first time since it was originally shown, and I don't think the movie is as bad as I thought I remembered it to be. It isn't a great work, but I was still very much interested and Tripplehorn makes a wild "villain."

I haven't seen that in years. I'm going to dig it out and rewatch it. Just what a Saturday night take-out, on an evening when you're not feeling 100%, needs as a cheering-up movie.
Not being a serious, hard core kaiju fan, I don't know if this is the first, but last night I saw something remarkable: A Japanese monster movie that was about 9/11, and not Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
And being a Gamera movie, it's right up Jess' alley.
I saw Julie & Julia today. It was pretty good. Not something I'd go back to every weekend it's in the theaters, but worth a matinee. My friend and I left the theater hungry for really good food, and we ended up at a Durham restaurant called Revolution. Durhamistas—their food is delicious!
