Dream Girl ,'Bring On The Night'
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.
Oh, here's the funniest thing that happened at the movies: We're watching this preview, it looks pretty good, and then the screen changes to: "From M. Night Shyamalan," and I swear the audience as a whole went, "Oh. So much for that." There was an audible reaction.
Ha, a friend of mine has a very similar story.
I think Devil looks kind of neat, plus it has Caroline Dhavernas!
It's very clever, particularly if you like heist stories. There are many handsome men in suits, which is nice.
I like both of those things a great deal! Also air conditioning.
The Tweet from Screenrush didn't say he was cast as Bilbo just that he was cast in the Hobbit. Aren't there other hobbits he could be?
smonster and I went to see Inception last night with some friends and the exact same thing happened in our theater during the Devil trailer when M. Night Shyamalan's name came up! It's a nationwide phenomenon of disappointment.
We loved the movie also, and the first thing I did when I got home was look Tom Hardy up on the imdb. He was great.

Unless he just shows up in the beginning or the end, not really. About 95% of the book is spent away from the Shire, and Bilbo is the only hobbit.
There are a bunch of dwarves though.
And a few humans and elves.
Speaking of dwarves, I'm (finally!) watching the blu-ray of Snow White. The Evil Queen is still the best thing about the movie. Her and the Magic Mirror. The restoration is gorgeous.

I really love all the scenes of her in the dungeon mixing up her potion and mocking the skeletons of her former victims.
Tom Hardy played the young Picard clone in "Star Trek: Nemesis". He's been around for a while but lost a couple of years through substance abuse. Definitely one of the more interesting young British actors to appear in the past few years, though.
The Observer Magazine had an article on him a couple of weeks ago, though it wasn't particularly revelatory:
