Because the heat fried my brain I'm watching Hentalia a 26 part anime series of 5 minute vignettes.

The series is silly (a scene is about France proposing marriage to England and attempting to force his hand ... based on the 1956 proposal from France), over the top, I disagree with some of the historical analysis, but overall it's like an Anime version of basically any Languish WW2 argument. :P

Actually, there was another project in 1940 submitted to Reynaud by Monnet just before the Armistice. It was even approved by de Gaulle...

Great anime or so it seems: perfect for all Ségolènes! :D

Coraline 3-D on DVD. The 3D is underwhelming compared to what they can do in a theatre these days. The story though is awesome and lifts this scary and beautiful fable above the need for 3D or any gimmickry at all, actually.

I completely agree with you.  :)

I forgot about that short, now that's something I'd like to see.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I wait for the collector's DVD of Watchment that's supposed to come out near christmas:
QuoteIn December, 2009, an "Ultimate Collector's Edition" will be released. The five-disc set will include the director's cut of the film with Tales of the Black Freighter woven in, new commentaries by Zack Snyder and Dave Gibbons, the complete Watchmen Motion Comics, and over 2 hours of bonus content including Under the Hood, which was previously released on the Tales of the Black Freighter DVD.

Watched the 1st season of True Blood and liked it.

Just watched the Great Escape (Film night, stay up late, make pop corn together, light fire and drink hot chocolate) and was struck by the richness of it - as well as the plethora of good actors of course.  They had the guys in the boat, the one on the bicycle, the aeroplane etc.  I've a feeling that if it was made now, they'd just have the train and Steve on his bike

Damn, I haven't been paying attention. I thought it was being released as a special feature on the DVD.

Great Escape was good.

Watched Daffy Duck's Quackbusters because it was there and having no cable made me crave something in the background.

I recently watched Chuck on Hulu.  I find it entertaining enough, though a bit heavy on the darkly humorous angst.
PDH!

Black Widow (Bob Rafelson) early 80's late 70's very low budget but with the great Connie Hall behind the lens it looks really nice. Teresa Russell is marrying (slightly) older men and then killing them, it's her hobby. a very very young and nerdy looking Debra Winger is an old school IT nerd crunching secret data collected by spying on The American citizenry.

She only has circumstantial evidence as Teresa ups the ante by marrying and doing away with Nicol Williamson (Merlin!) in quick order before Debra can get to her. Eventually Winger goes undercover in Hawaii and gets her spider. I won't give to many details other than to say that if palpable sexual tension between two women (and an oddly placed "pride" flag) does what is supposed to, you will quite enjoy the last half of the picture.

6.5 really really bad haircuts on everyone in the film outta 10
