geeky film post

[faux_teak]

I just went poking around on imdb, which I haven't done in quite some time, and it totally re-invigorated my interest in films coming out later this year.

Plenty of projects I already knew about and was excited for:
Narnia
King Kong
Corpse Bride
Serenity
The Wallace and Gromit movie
Elizabethtown
Rent
Harry Potter

And then there are these gems in the lineup:

The Libertine is not only done filming but has a release date set for September. Let's just hope it didn't get edited to death.

Valiant with just about the best collection of British actors' voices ever for an animated comedy about homing pigeons in WWII. Ewan McGregor, Ricky Gervais, John Cleese, John Hurt... and the list goes on.

Transamerica is coming out in December, which I'm very excited to see in spite of the fact that it stars Felicity Huffman, whom I object to on principal because of Desperate Housewives, but who I also think is an excellent candidate for a MTF tranny.

Brokeback Mountain. The gay cowboys are coming!!

Memoirs of a Geisha. I had just plain forgotten this was coming out in December.

Hooray for movie dorkiness!!!
