Super cool and fascinating Cindy Sherman film short from 1975 Doll Clothes. (Not exactly safe for work, though she is dressed in her underwear.)
Love isn't brains, children, it's blood, blood screaming inside you to work its will.

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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I get why Snyder did it. It just makes me tired, like all his super-slo-mo sequences.
I'd add, I found Rorshach to be much more believably dangerous when he won his prison fights through, as he put it, 'his perspective' than through simply being a harder hitter. It fits his character much better.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
answering the questions above re: watchmen
yes I think #2 was somewhat lost on me. I didn't think it was a Weekly World News, but I didn't think it was a legit news organization either running out of a storefront. I didn't know what it was.
#1: I'm not sure what the name of the Act was, but Nite Owl repeatedly talked about being arrested when he was in his mask and suit with Laurie, so it was pretty damn clear that superhero actions in capes and masks were outlawed.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I wouldn't read too much into walk outs. People walk out of Slumdog Millionaire all the time.
edit: OK, not 25% of the audience. We haven't had anybody walk out of Watchmen yet (that I'm aware of.)

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I wish I'd walked out of that one. I kept hoping for a scene that would redeem the rest of it...oh well.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Always Anti-fascist!
should I be impressed or concerned by my taste paralleling Oswalt's so much? Because I guess he was really good as The King Of Queens' fanboy geek, so it's hard to be all "Ooh! What Patton Said!" Except I really hate "Subway", but I like Patton's shout-out anyway because, by mentioning something other than "Subway", Mr. Oswalt has shown himself to be a true H:LOTS fan. Subway, is like, the easy choice to reference because it got a lot of ink...documentary on PBS, Emmy noms, etc.

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

I'm a little shocked people are calling a $56 million opening weekend a failure just because it didn't make as much money as 300. Well 300 was only 2hrs long so that's one extra show per print per day.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
I'm gonna go see it again when I go home, to see if I react differently, try and see it as a movie and not a graphic novel turned into a movie.
