Flist. I have an unbelievable revelation.

ONCE UPON A TIME DAVID CARUSO COULD ACT.

Like, really well. I have no idea what happened but in the miniseries Mum rented for us, The First Olympics: Athens 1896, he was amazing. It was so shocking, it took me over an hour to realize it was actually him ( Read more... )

So. Avatar.

Yes, it is Ferngully 3D. Yes, it is Dances with Wolves. Yes, it's the usual white guilt fantasy and it does have moments of flinch-worthy racial insensitivity. Yes, you've probably seen this exact same plot before with little to no variation. The good guys are Good, the bad guys are Bad Bad Bad people.

But you know what?

It's the ( Read more... )

SO I WATCHED "NEW MOON" RIGHT.

don't ask me how, you either know or you don't.

All I can say is, goddamnit, Bella, you stupid bint. I WOULD DATE JACOB. He's a nice boy. MUCH BETTER THAN EDWARD OH GOD. I mean, Jacob, Alice, and Carlisle remain the only tolerable people in the movie.

Not to say it's a good movie. Oh jesus god, it's not a good ( Read more... )

Mum: Grandma selling her assets... You know it's because of us, right?

Yeah, I did. Thanks for the reminder.

OKAY YOU GUIZE

TWILIGHT. Watched it with Mum, who's never read any of the books.
FILM: :ends:
LUCY: That was such a great movie.
MUM: Are you insane? That was complete shit.
LUCY: Really? It was so much better than I was expecting.
MUM: ... Just how bad are these books?
LUCY: Edward was such a catty bipolar bitch! Alice was perfect! Carlisle and ( Read more... )

Just finished watching Religulous. Enjoyed it until the last five minutes. Oh, Maher. That editing was just GOP-style scare tactics. I didn't disagree with a word you said- and I often don't!- but you're such an asshat about it, you can turn off a total antitheist like me.

Really great overall though. I liked Dawkins' The Root of All Evil BBC ( Read more... )

Don't watch if you haven't seen The Dark Knight, but this was pretty cute. The kid playing the Joker is actually okay.

ETA: Oh, and remember the "What if Michael Bay wrote TDK" script? Oh, lolarity.

I saw The Dark Knight.

I have no words left. I'm still kinda shaking. Aaron Eckhardt was astounding. He was just... I loved him to death ( Read more... )

So Michael Clayton had one of the most amazing endings ever.

Hell yes. \o/

So where are the Shiva icons hiding?

ETA: Neil Gaiman is making American Gods free online for a month. It's over here. Can anyone tell how to actually DL it? :confused:
