Hannibal: [spoiler]was that Honey Bunny?[/spoiler]
[spoiler]Yeah.  I didn't realize the joke until I saw it on a comments section.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Picasso Hannibal was one of the creepiest things I've ever seen on TV.  [/spoiler]

[spoiler]Yes, that entire episode was downright disturbing, what about that live lobotomy on an aware person and the following reveal to that poor girl? Fuck.

Oh and when the camera started to follow that bee I knew shit was coming, but it still took me by surprise.[/spoiler]

I'm not convinced Emma Watson has that much talent as an actress.  Wallflower was incredibly dull and unconvincing.

Reasonably. :)

Latest Hannibal was also great, as has been previously noted.  I especially like that they've remembered that Mrs. Crawford 1)has cancer and 2)exists. :lol:

I really liked the staging of the cliffhanger sequence.  Suspenseful, playful, oblique, yet completely unambiguous.

One of the few films DeCraprio is in that I'll watch.

Not as good as Inception, much better than Titanic or Django.
Inception put me to sleep

Ha ha.  I get it.

They were initially going to cast Rupert Grint. So, you know, small blessings.

Maybe 2 of these are good movies and The Wrestler is better than all of them.

I hate the Fountain, but at least it's pretty. The others are great though. The Wrestler is one of my favourite films.

Well, not the muslims

http://www.theguardian.com/film/2014/mar/07/darren-aronofsky-noah-banned-muslim-countries

cause Noah is supposed to be a prophet of islam who's history and record was falsified.

also, not with the christians

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/rough-seas-noah-darren-aronofsky-679315

since they choose to ignore the fact that god murders (almost) everybody and noah is a drunken wife beater.


but I'm happy with the icelandic locations they picked. It's down on the south coast near where Game of Thrones shoots and the Gerard Butler Beowulf was shot. And of course near Eyafjallajökul - y'know the volcano that stopped air traffic.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.
