'War Stories'
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.
A pointlessly nifty thing about Apple TV is trailers on tap. Fewer movies should take me by surprise now. I toddled over because I was reading questions about the Get Smart trailer, but now I know about Forbidden Kingdom! How cool is that?
Well, okay, Get Smart looked lame, but the idea of the trailer thing is good.
Ooh! Harold & Kumar 2!
The only way Forbidden Kingdom could be any better is if Chow Yun Fat was in it. As Wong Fei-Hung.
I'm irrationally excited about Nim's Island.
That's too bad.
Jesus.
WHAT. Oh, man. He was still so freakin' young.
That was him who played the uncredited interviewer of the old Briony played by Vanessa Redgrave in Atonement, right?
Wow. RIP Anthony Minghella

Yup.
Holy crap.
Oh, that's sad. I really like his work. (Except Cold Mountain, but I hated the book so thoroughly you'll never persuade me to see the movie.)
