Other than a 5 to 10 minute segment towards the end, Argo was flawless. It's the best movie I've seen this year. Whoever opted to pull off the late 70s documentary-style cinematography should win an Oscar.

Speaking of Disney, hearing pretty good things about Wreck-It Ralph. The director worked on the Simpsons and Futurama. Lots of 80's arcade game references, so it ought to be fun for people old enough to remember them. Thinking about taking my son this weekend or next.

This wasn't as good as I hoped but there's some great stuff - especially in the first half hour - with all the familiar video game characters. Way too much time is spent in one particular video game - it paves the way for a lot of wacky stuff kids will like and shows off the pretty CG, but I just got kind of tired of it.

I'm hearing still no gadgets in Bond, even though Q is a character. I'm not familiar with the books at all and the new movies are quite good, but damn I miss the gadgets, the entendre and the camp of the movies I grew up on--from my point of view there ought to be an asterisk on 007. I also heard there's hardly even a Bond girl in Skyfall either.

So the Anchorman sequel was squashed? That really sucks.

I heart In Bruges big time, as I've said here before. Did anyone see Seven Psychopaths?

Anchorman 2 was squashed? Daaaaaaaarn

[TheoSqua]

It was initially squashed but that article was written before the sequel was announced

Bond was incredibly entertaining. See it. I wont spoil anything, dont read anything else about it. If you like Bond movies, go see it tomorrow.
