I got to see Where the Wild Things Are for my birthday!!! (Me, the woman who almost never gets to see a movie in the theater, let alone on opening weekend.) I really loved it.
The whole earth may be sucked into Hell, and you want my help 'cause your girlfriend's a big ho?

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.

That's a hard one. "Eye candy" is used without translation, but I can't think of an equivalent for "man candy."
You can always go with the standard "il est canon/craquant" or "c'est une bombe", all of which basically mean "he's hot."

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

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 else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Speaking of, I saw Doomsday last night. I...have not seen a movie with that many decapitations in a while. It's not a very good movie, but Rhona Mitra is pretty badass. In one scene, she takes down an armored gladiator in her civvies! Then later she drives through a bus.

Newsflash: James Cameron is a douchebag.

I think the douchebags have found their patron saint, Scola.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm interested to see how douchey Mr. Cameron is, but not interested enough to read that many words about him.
Anyway- I'm not done talking about Banlieue 13. Did you know that the lead actor is largely credited with having created the sport of parkour?

Just start at a random point in the article, and read for a few paragraphs!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Bless him for creating Sarah Connor and Ripley, but I wouldn't spend five minutes talking to him. Nor him to me, from as much of that as I could stand to read.
