I want to see Crazy Heart. I like it when Jeff Bridges sings.

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.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I figure I'll have to see Avatar at some point, just to see what all the hullaballou (or however you spell it) is about.
I have Inglourious Basterds and District 9 sitting at home from Netflix, and The Hurt Locker and In the Loop at the top of the queue. After that, I'd have seen... er, 6 out of the BP nominees? (I've seen Up, Up in the Air and An Education).
I have never even heard of The Last Station.

Serial: I'm a bit puzzled about In the Loop being in the adapted, not original, screenplay category. I mean, OK, it was based on the TV series, but the exact same writers wrote a whole new script just for the big screen, right? (Unless they took an episode they've done already for the TV and expanded on it.) Wouldn't it make it an original screenplay?

I think it only went into limited release in January. I don't think it's made it into very many theatres.

What is this one and why is it cheating? Did Sheppard play a younger version of the same character as Hoskins in the same movie?
They played TOTALLY DIFFERENT characters named Badger.

I've always wanted an MP3 of his Everly Brothers duet from Starman.
Tidbit: Jeff Bridges is friends with Tom Waits, which is how Tom got a role in The Fisher King.

I googled it and I see that it's that Tolstoy/Countess Tolstoy biopic. I have heard of it -- just didn't know the title. And it has Christopher Plummer and James McAvoy in addition to Mirren! Oooh.
I like Sandra Bullock a lot but I've been balking at seeing The Blind Side, on account of it looking like... well, "Nice white lady takes in a neglected black boy and we all get to learn how awesome she and her Christian charity is!" Is the movie better than that? The potential wince factor seems pretty high.

It is now at the top of my queue with District 9.

Ah, that was going to be my next guess.
