Someone should make a movie where a man and a woman fall for each other while for some reason pretending to be lovers. And something supernatural with ghosts and children.

Go see Inglourious Basterds. If you can't stand to watch a couple of people getting scalped, go watch it and just close your eyes when someone starts talking about scalping. Tarantino's best since Pulp Fiction and my favorite movie of the year.

Think I'm going to see this tonight! I've wanted to see this since February. Can't wait!

I really, really want to see Moon...

Saw Moon two nights ago. It was very good. Lots of 2001 homages. The twist is the story, so I won't give it away. Lots of themes in the movie (Living with yourself, compassion, self-sacrifice...) It apparently was filmed in a self-contained set with built-in lighting. They used small crews due to claustrophobia. And Kevin Spacey didn't agree to be in it until the film was completed and he watched the whole thing. He jumped at the chance. Sam Rockwell is a sleeper for Oscar nod.

Moon is wonderful. Very understated, often minimalist. The scene where Sam Rockwell finally gets to make a phone call (you know which one I mean) is heartbreaking.

Moon still not showing around here. I've conceded that I'll have to wait for blu ray...I just hope it's a quick release there.

I'll second the Inglourious Basterds praise. Did not feel like 2 and a half hours at all. I could have kept watching that for a while longer, so I'm hoping the dvd release has the extra footage I've read Tarantino had to cut.

The Hurt Locker is an intense picture of a bombs- defusing squad in Iraq- great film. Inglourious Basterds is very entertaining.

[thrill]

Inglourious Basterds is very entertaining.

It was. I know there was a truly great movie in there somewhere too, but instead it was just fun. Too Tarantino'y

Not to be a spoiler, but I just realized the line where Brad Pitt says, "It's the closest thing to television we've got..." is a joke within the joke, TV wasn't widely available until 1946.
