Got a couple of matched pairs in this set, older film connected to a recent/current one.

I've seen the Reduced Shakespeare Company twice here in Dublin, and the live show is a blast. Especially when the guy next to me who I'd persuaded to attend got dragged on stage for the audience participation bit.

About Dreamcatcher.. I saw that movie on TV once when I was bored on a friday night. It was fucked up, but amusing as anything.

Also, I should watch Iron Man again. I love that movie.

Haven't seen Inception yet. Must get around to that.

I must ask this: would Sherlock Holmes have been better with Jason Statham in the title role?

[crisper]

What movie would *not* be?

[jwgh]

Hmmm. Capote?

[crisper]

How would Capote not be totally improved by Jason Statham head-butting every motherfucker in sight?

We also saw "Without a Clue" recently, and what struck me about it was that it seemed like the sort of movie they used to crank out in the late Sixties or early Seventies, with very little to indicate that it was actually from 1989. Anyway, it's a perfectly cromulent example of the Holmes Pastiche With A Twist subgenre, though certain content aspects of the climax are very dated.

I saw a live production of Shakespeare Abridged last year and thought the exact same thing.
