I wanted Sky Captain femslash.
I want examples of Angelina Jolie's character in cosplay.
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

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.

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

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I enjoyed Sky Captain for what it was. I think the big screen helped. I vaguely recall being disappointed by the ending.

I wanted a great-looking steampunk/1920s-1930s/pulp thing. And it was. Except the story was so bad it kept killing my enjoyment.
And the style of the pulp kept changing.

The Hurt Locker: awesome awesome wholelottawhaththefuck. I mean, the end, WTF? Maybe I'm not clear on the timeline, whether scenes were flashback or chronological. The former, huh. the latter, wtf? Lots of little awesome moments and character beats, but, where? who? with the what? Maybe I need to not have wine whilst watching...

They replayed the interview by Teri Gross of Kathryn Bigelow on NPR today. It was pretty fascinating.

I haven't heard that, but from the opening quote "war is a drug", I guess I was hoping for a less obvious outcome/sendoff. Or, rather, a story where the status quo, you know, changed, one way or the other, for good or for ill or for indifference.
I should have known the movie would piss me off the moment James knew Beckham was alive and brushed him off.
Right now, this is one of those movies that I enjoyed at outset, but the more I think about it, the more it pisses me off. Shit like Avater, which evoked nothing noteworthy to think about for me, I was able to enjoy for the pretty and the worldbuilding (although the end was too rah rah hero hero epic battle (read that all in caps, which I am to tired to initiate)).
