Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

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.

Have you seen Coraline in 3D in a theater?

While most of that movie used the 3-D to superb and subtle effect, it did have one Dr. Tongue's 3D House of Stewardesses moment with those floating dream mice.

OK, that sounds porny, and I can't imagine why mice would be porny.

ETA except in a human habit trail sort of way, and I really hope that's not what you're talking about.

Watching Shawshank for the five millionth time--can't pass up watching it when it shows up on Encore. Andy's about to bust out! Warden just gave him his shoes to shine.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Just caught up with 9 on DVD - it's joining Wall-E on my list of movies that really would have been better as silent films. (The original 9 short was dialogue free and WOW so much better!) The visuals are still pretty spectacular, but the exposition kind of made my ears bleed.

(Both 9 and Wall-E also joining 2001 on list of movies where round robots with glowing red eyes turn out evil, or at least pragmatic to a fault and to the detriment of human life.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Good advice for the 2010: Never trust a round robot.

move out and draw fire

So why has the Droid phone been advertised with a glowing red HAL eye background?

Sort of a "we have cookies" thing?

The 9 short was better story telling, but I liked the movie for its own sake.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'll take Gladiator in tights. I like Robin grim.

Owen just gave me his first spoiler! We rented G-Force for the kids. They went with a friend to see it in the theatre, but wanted to see it again. When Speckle gets crushed in the garbage truck, Owen looked at me and said, "He's going to die in the garbage truck and then he becomes the bad guy!" So I checked the plot on Wikipedia and it does, in fact, reveal that the star-nosed mole is actually the evil mastermind behind the plot to destroy humanity. *sniff* I'm so proud.
