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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, bless, Tom.

It would be weird to see Chris Evans play Captain America after he's already been Johnny Storm in two movies, but aside from that issue I think he'd be a lot better in the role than Vogel or Hedlund.

I guess if Ryan Reynolds can franchise hop, I'm okay with Chris. He is my favourite of the three.

It'll make me a little sad if his doing so means no chance of Fantastic Four cameos in any of the upcoming movies. However good a Cap he might make, I haven't seen anyone so born to play a particular comic book character since Shelley Duvall was cast as Olive Oyl.

I get that concern.

I just think that precious few of the names that have come up for Cap can play against RDJ's Iron Man. Aside from sufficient acting talent and the clench-jawed good looks and heroic ability, that's what I'm judging them on. Oh, and shirtless potential.

I'm still sad Jensen Ackles had scheduling problems. But I doubt he would have made it this far.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Oh man, I hope this makes a wide release. It's about a guy who is always seen around our part of Dallas. Mostly I've seen him at shows with his keyboard. His Name is Bob [link]

I have a vague memory of being told I'd like Myrna Loy movies. Can't remember if that was here or not. Am not sure if I've seen anythign with her. Off to Netflix.

My favorite is The Thin Man. But one of my favorite scenes of hers is from Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House where she is picking out paint colors:

Muriel Blandings: I want it to be a soft green, not as blue-green as a robin`s egg, but not as yellow-green as daffodil buds. Now, the only sample I could get is a little too yellow, but don`t let whoever does it go to the other extreme and get it too blue. It should just be a sort of grayish-yellow-green. Now, the dining room. I`d like yellow. Not just yellow; a very gay yellow. Something bright and sunshine-y. I tell you, Mr. PeDelford, if you`ll send one of your men to the grocer for a pound of their best butter, and match that exactly, you can`t go wrong! Now, this is the paper we`re going to use in the hall. It`s flowered, but I don`t want the ceiling to match any of the colors of the flowers. There`s some little dots in the background, and it`s these dots I want you to match. Not the little greenish dot near the hollyhock leaf, but the little bluish dot between the rosebud and the delphinium blossom. Is that clear? Now the kitchen is to be white. Not a cold, antiseptic hospital white. A little warmer, but still, not to suggest any other color but white. Now for the powder room - in here - I want you to match this thread, and don`t lose it. It`s the only spool I have and I had an awful time finding it! As you can see, it`s practically an apple red. Somewhere between a healthy winesap and an unripened Jonathan. Oh, excuse me...
Mr. PeDelford: You got that Charlie?
Charlie, Painter: Red, green, blue, yellow, white.
Mr. PeDelford: Check.

Because books.

megan, that's my favorite screwball, and one of my favorite scenes. So perfect, her delivery.

Sadly, I couldn't find it on YouTube, or the paint commercial that used a clip from the scene in their ad.
