Aw. I have such a ridiculously huge soft spot for #9. Which I may need to watch again sometime this weekend, possibly.
Why couldn't Giles have shackles like any self-respecting bachelor?

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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Or that.

Given that it came out the year I started Georgetown, I have a ridiculously huge soft spot for #8 (except for Andie MacDowell, of course).

Every movie she's in is sort of like that. "I have to go now, Mrs. Robinson. This conversation's getting a little strange." Yes, I watched the Graduate a bunch of times.

Because books.
Alice in Wonderland is at the second-run theater here for a dollar. Is it worth it to see it on the big screen, or is it really bad enough to skip?

I hope it's worth it, we're heading to see it in an hour.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I finally saw Avatar. I'm glad I knew how awful it was going in so I could enjoy it for the beautiful CGI. Predicting the dialogue was a fun game, too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I saw Just Wright, my rom com of the moment. It was charming, and had a vocal audience "She's full of shit!" And she was. Queen Latifah plays a tomboy who doesn't get a makeover--she dresses up during the movie, but it's pretty much glossed over that she could be sassily dressed all the time, but she wears what you like when she wanted,

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I've never heard of Just Wright, so my first thought was of the Wright Brothers. Now I'm trying to imagine a rom com movie about the Wright Brothers with Queen Latifa in it.
Maybe Latifa is a time-traveling FAA agent, who comes to Wright Brothers to offer constructive criticism on their new plane. Wackiness and romance ensues.
(Maybe I shouldn't post before having coffee....)

Now I want to see this.
I watched The Comancheros on AMC. John Wayne was wonderful as usual. I love the way he keeps saying monSOOer. But I feel terrible for complaining about Rock Hudson playing a native american in Winchester '73 that treatment was quite gentle compared to the portrayals in The Comancheros. Oh dear dog when the "tame indian" pantomimed whisky it was so awful I had to rewind to be sure I'd seen it right.
