Xander ,'Showtime'
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.
In Snow White and the Huntsman, I thought that Chris Hemsworth had a STRONG Heath Ledger vibe. It was slightly creepy.
Re: Iron Man 3, I'm not really seized with the overwhelming need to see it again (which is good, since my next 2 [at least] weekends are taken up with Gatsby and then Stark Trek). But then nothing between Star Trek and Much Ado at the beginning of June. So I'll probably see Iron Man again, just not right away.
Stark Trek
I LOVE THIS TYPO.
DH wasn't allowed to bring guests to the IM3 screening (it was in the morning anyway) so I don't know when I'll get a chance to see it. Maybe I'll ping my sisters tomorrow night and see if we want to have a girls night out with RDJ.
Stark Trek

Ahahahahahaha!!! Hello, my brain. I kind of want this mash-up, now.
Actually, I was joking with P-C on FB yesterday that the only parts of Iron Man 3 I was spoiled for was the Joker being in it, and The Flash being Iron Man's sidekick, and of course the part with Sailor Moon.
...and then I suddenly wanted to see that movie.
Damn you, Teppy. So far nothing about the Avengers world has made the ficspaces in my head twitch, but your typo made the plot bunny ears perk up.
And I'm being very good about avoiding *most* spoilers.
Still, I can't help but think that with a better actress in the lead role, the script could have lost at least half of the "She lights up the room! She's so lovely! She breathes life into everything she touches!" exclamations by the other actors.
I just couldn't suspend disbelief enough to imagine Charlize Theron being intimidated by Kristen Stewart's beauty.
If only Kristen would close her damn mouth! When she's not talking, that is.
She could go ahead and close it then too.
I think K-Stew's acting could be greatly improved if she stuck a post-it to her forehead with the word SUBTEXT written on it.

Seriously. And, while I think Charlize was way overacting in this role, I like to think that in part she was hamming it up that much to try and show K-Stew what acting is.
See, Kristin? Emoting! Pretend like you have emotions, and show them on your face. like this! No, MORE!
Like trying to smash through a brick wall with a sledgehammer.
I thought that Chris Hemsworth had a STRONG Heath Ledger vibe.
He doesn't look like him (to me), but he really feels like him here. Almost like Heath was in the movie, wearing a Hemsworth suit. I could easily see Ledger in the role.
And I liked the dwarves. (Edit: Of course, I'd watch Ian McShane do almost anything)

Part of it was Hemsworth's darker-than-Thor hair (having seen Avengers at least 3 times before Snow White really made that difference stand out), and IIRC, Hemsworth used a different accent (his real accent?) in Snow White, which sounded very Ledger to my ear. And yeah, it was just...a vibe. Strong enough to creep me out.
