Zombieland was fun. I think Shaun of the Dead was funnier, but Zombieland was a more successful blend of both drama and comedy. It was unexpectedly affecting at times. And, yes, the cameo was pretty great.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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.

The NYT has a pretty glowing review too.
Even so, it startles and charms and delights largely because Mr. Jonze’s filmmaking exceeds anything he’s done in either of his inventive previous features, “Being John Malkovich” (1999) and “Adaptation” (2002). With “Where the Wild Things Are” he has made a work of art that stands up to its source and, in some instances, surpasses it.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Jessica - do you think Emeline could handle it? She loved Coraline and watches JLA cartoons and such.
