Most disturbing part is when she tries to seduce the father.

Ew.

I assume you've never seen/read Lolita

no no, ive read/seen it...but that whole concept still makes my skin crawl.

Here's something that exists, and may require a one man show.

That's a bummer that Juliette Binoche is a truther.  Though maybe if I hear the theory in that cute accent I will be swayed!

Jbissell, I guess you're not in NY?  I think there are still plenty of tix available.

Also going to see the Rifftrax Live event tomorrow night -- anyone else?  It's MST3K under a different name and is happening nationally at various theaters.  They're doing Plan 9 From Outer Space.

I saw Ponyo on Saturday and it was great! I and my friend were the only adults in the theater who were there to see the movie for themselves. All others were there for their kids.

Nope, Chicago.

I really wanted to go to this but have to work late tonight.

Cinematic Titanic are doing some live shows here in Sept. that I'd like to check out but $40 is a bit pricey for me.

I rather enjoyed this, though it's hard to avoid comparing it to the book, from which it's very different.

oooo! I love all the guys in this movie, but i know absolutely nothing about soccer. Soccer movies tend to go over my head.

Well, except for Victory, of course. I think you'd have to be dead not to be into that movie.

Avatar looks awful, based on the trailer.  A bunch of hippy jive.  Cool airplanes, though.

The faces on those girls look exactly the same.  Twins?  Photoshop?  Something worse?

Plus, the girl on the right has a belly button located maybe an inch under her sternum.

Air Bud: World Pup is pretty heady.

I've watched Night Moves 3 or 4 times and I still don't understand what the hell is going on. I don't think Harry Moseby does either.

It's a solid film, The Damned United. I don't think you have to be too clued up about British football in the mid-70s to keep up with it, although maybe that's easy for me to say. At its heart, it (the film, unlike the book) is a story of a man with too much ambition, and his relationship with his best friend.
