I enjoyed Hansel and Gretel much more than I thought I would. If I hadn't seen it with friends, I probably would have given it a miss.
Anyone else seen a movie called Alter Egos?

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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Jeremy Renner's arms do make an appearance.
We watched Ghost Protocol last night (I know, I know; I hate Cruise, but it was pretty fun) and I kept screaming, "WHERE ARE THE BARE ARMS??!!"
My husband is pretty forbearing, but then we watched Haywire, and I was like "He rack is amazing!" and he was like "And those muscled thighs!" So I kept a Thigh Watch for him: "THIGHS, honey!"
The things that make a marriage work...

Just out of curiosity, what's everyone's read on WTF is going on with James Franco here?: [link]

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Choose one:
A) Franco having an overinflated sense of importance
B) I think he may have a crush on Cavill.
C) Cavill had a one night stand with him and discarded him like used kleenex and Franco hasn't gotten over it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
In a world of primo journalism (i.e. not this one) I can't believe someone would write an article on something James Franco "gets the feeling" about. Jeez. I want to like the guy, but I do have to really limit my intake.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Always late to the party, H and I finally saw ST:ID yesterday. Consensus: It was purdy. Shit blowed up. Bobblehead blond Barbie was a jarring insert and the 10-second undies flash had a ridonkulous amount of buildup for minimal payoff. And why don't women crew rate sleeves and pants?
Also, even though I knew the line was in there somewhere, when Kirk told Chekov to "put on a red shirt," I gasped audibly, "Nooooo!" There was a general snicker through the audience.
So yeah, it was pretty, and stuff blowed up.

Franco's all put out that everyone's panties are in a knot over Cavill's hotness and is trying to make it all about him.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My main question is why is a newspaper basically just reprinting James Franco's blog.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
But everyone's panties are all in knot about someone's hotness at any given time. And, honestly, I haven't heard as much about Cavill as other guys playing superheroes.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Yeah. Maybe there's extra sting to Cavill's success because Franco had super hero movie ambitions himself that have been tanked with the Spider-Man reboot, but Robert Downey Jr. gets more attention for his forays in the field and he has indie darling cred that's more like what Franco's trying to build to boot. It really reads as being written entirely in Bitter Ex-speak to me. I half expected him to finish the blog entry by quoting Adele lyrics.
