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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I feel like shit about it now, of course.

Pfft. Seeing stuff that's not age appropriate is actually an important part of growing up. Everybody does it. Everybody survives it.

I would actually think a kid was too sheltered if they never saw stuff outside their ability to grasp it, or was too intense or too whatever.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Well, my next door neighbors took me to see Friday the 13th when I was 10 and I spent the next few months sleeping with my twin sister. At least I didn't drag her to a slasher horror film.

We shared a bed a lot as kids (and a few times as teenagers). The only problem is she talks a lot.

In her sleep, or just in general?

She did turn out to be an attorney.

In general. She's well suited. I'm always shocked to think I'm the quiet one. Because I talk A LOT.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ooooh! Up is playing at the dollar show! And on Tuesdays I'm pretty sure it's 50 cents! I think I know what Em and I are doing tomorrow!!

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

You know, while I usually dislike it, I can understand why Hollywood makes an "American" version of a foreign language film. However, can anyone--seriously--expound a rational reason for Neil LaBute remaking the 2007 British movie, Death at a Funeral ??????

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I saw The Time Traveler's Wife last night. Pretty good, and sad enough that it wasn't overly sappy like I feared it might be.

I have no idea who the physics consultant was that told them Eric Bana's character would vanish out of his clothes and reappear naked when jumping through time, but I owe him or her a drink .

He needed a followup to his unnecessary remake of The Wicker Man?

Oy. And wasn't a chunk of the cast American for that movie anyway? I KNOW Alan Tyduck was in it.
