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.
I loved Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang so much, I watched it twice in a row.
My RDJ love is similarly indiscriminate.
That movie was freaky - the protagonist puppet looked so much like Daniel Jackson that I couldn't think of it as the character it was actually supposed to be.
I absolutely adore the Puppet!Stargate episode, but have never seen Team America. I'll have to go find pictures to see if they used the same puppet.
No, the Team America puppet actually looked more like Daniel than the one used in "200."
KKBB is a great movie. I highly recommend it. Really entertaining.
We've been watching Toy Story 2 a lot this week to prep Matilda for Toy Story 3.
I don't know if there's a sadder song in the Disney canon than "When She Loved Me" (the song about Jessie the Cowgirl's previous owner). Dag.
Though now that I've been corrupted by Glee I've been imagining them doing a Disney/Pixar song selection.
They should do a Randy Newman episode.

Too subtle? Too much irony?
Though he's got amazing songs in his catalog like "I Think It's Going to Rain Today" and "You Can Leave Your Hat On."
Oh, I think it would confuse the hell out of most people. But I also think he's one of the best songwriters ever.

Awww, did you ever hear the song "For Randy Newman, etc." by The Chills?
It's a very affecting and pretty valentine to songwriters who have been overlooked and misunderstood, specifically citing Randy, Brian Wilson, Nick Drake, Syd Barrett, Scott Walker.

I'm also rewatching the movies in prep for the third, and that scene brought me close to tears, unexpectedly. Not only because, you know, she's a fucking toy, but because I found her character really irritating before then. They pulled the old "Ha, we will make you care about a character you don't even like, mwahahaha!" trick.
