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 am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I feel like the overlap between dance movies and Marvel movies should be high

I don't know that it is, but it should be.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Dancing...Marvel...

Downey and Hemsworth are pretty great in this, but I think Hiddleston and Evans (gotta pay attention if you haven't seen this) are the stars

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I had see it and it took me a minute to remember Evans! This one seems longer, and includes more Clark Gregg and Mark Ruffalo (who are my favs), I think! Also, for some reason I do not like Jeremy Renner (He strikes me as a poor man’s Nathan Fillion, which is ridiculous because he is a much bigger star), but he seems like he has had professional training.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Honestly, that mostly made me want to watch 13 Going On 30!

Thoughts on the Oscar nominations today: [link]

I still have a lot to see in general, but I'm almost done with the main nominations for Indie Spirits and have seen a lot of fantastic stuff. Current Top 20 for 2021:
The Power of the Dog
Petite Maman
C'mon C'mon
Pig
Shiva Baby
The Lost Daughter
Drive My Car
Swan Song
Red Rocket
The Last Duel
Plan B
I Care a Lot
Fear Street Part Three: 1666
No Sudden Move
The Novice
The Matrix Resurrections
Zola
Don't Look Up
Black Widow
Fear Street Part One: 1994

ETA: That's the Swan Song with Udo Kier, not Mahershala Ali, because there are two Oscar eligible films with the same name this year.

Huh. I’m used to not seeing about half the nominated movies, but I don’t even recognize the names of most of those. It’s probably because I haven’t been going to the theater much this past year, so I haven’t seen many previews.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I've only seen The Lost Daughter and Black Widow from that list. Several others are on my to watch list.
