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.

A look at Harry Potter World in Orlando and Prince William has a "Harry Potter scar".
I watched Dead Like Me: Life After Death. Mostly I was disappointed. I thought it started out with promise, that deeper mysteries would be revealed, and failed to deliver. In the end I didn't feel that it was a story crying out to be told. It felt more like the first episode of season 3.
DH and I saw Monsters Vs Aliens today and it was great. Really, really fun, great characters, great vocal performances, great animation.
It does earn its PG rating - the humor is pretty adult, and it's *very* violent for something being marketed as a kid's movie. The violence is all bloodless of course, but the body count is higher than I was prepared for. There were some really young kids in the screening audience who did not sound like they were having a good time.
But for grown-ups who like monsters and aliens and 3D animation and Stephen Colbert, I highly recommend it!

...for the love of heaven, don't tell the Empress!

Ha. The Empress is exactly the audience I posted that link for.

This is me! Thanks for the rec; I thought it looked good from the trailers.
Dreamworks is predicting insanely huge numbers for Monsters v. Aliens. I hope they're right. They sent us managers a gift box including our own stuffed Insectosauruses (Insectosauri?) and I must say they are cute as giant mutant insect larvae could be.
I would appreciate any more comments on Monster v Aliens, as Casper (5.5) is very interested in the previews.
She seems to be a bit cold-blooded, actually - we watched Animal Cops (by mistake) recently, and while she had a lot of questions, she wasn't distressed.
