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.
So is that picture they use for Troll 2 actually from the movie? I mean, that's not some Troll 2 cosplay with shitty rubber masks going on?
From what I'm reading in our user reviews there aren't any actual trolls in Troll 2.
Also if you like Boondock Saints, have you seen Overnight?

I suspect that's where bonny's dislike of Troy Duffy came from, unless it was from personal experience (and i have no reason to believe that).
Frank gets it in one.
So, currently at the house I have Firemen's Ball, Disc 2 of Neverwhere and Perfume.
I have heard that people say there are underlying messages in Fireman's Ball having to do with the Soviet takeover of Czechoslovakia, though Forman denies it, and I was wondering if anyone knows what I should be looking for.

I just read the Wired article about Troll 2 this morning. And it was from over a month ago.
Random!
The Italian film fest continues. After seeing Vincere in theaters (amazing performance by Giovanna Mezzogiorno as Mussolini's mistress/wife), I Netflixed Buongiorno, notte, an earlier film of Bellocchio about the Aldo Moro kidnapping. I was happy to have seen it before renting Il divo, since the Moro kidnapping is referenced several times.
I highly recommend both, Il divo in particular, which makes some very interesting stylistic and musical choices. At one point, I almost felt sorry for the bastard. And the opening few minutes are very cool.
I just got my dvd of Passion of Joan of Arc in the mail today--got something to watch this weekend!!
I just watched The Hangover. I don't understand what all the fuss is about. Apart from a few amusing lines here and there, it wasn't all that funny.
I was really appalled at what happened to the groom. I couldn't get over that and after I learned where he was the whole time, that cast a shadow over the rest of the movie. I mean, damn.
