So, with the Thanksgiving holidays and everything, my Netflix shipments have been backed up. This is actually pretty good, because it’s been giving my brain a break from all those awful, awful movies I’ve been watching (I feel a little fried, I can’t lie), so tonight I’m making hot chocolate and tucking in with Witness, which I have not seen in approximately ten years and eight days. Viggo Mortensen’s first film role and all that. Plus, Amish people! Who doesn’t love the Amish? I hear they make fantastic quilts…and friendship bread.
And any thoughts of forming coherent thoughts about any movies whatsoever flew out the window when I saw this … first pictures of Bale and Depp in Public Enemies. Michael Mann, you have just put my rear end in a theater seat.
So that’s all for now. Once my new movies get here, I guess I’ll have something more, although I suspect I’ll need to dig out the thesaurus I haven’t used in ages. I’m getting sick of using the word “awful” over and over and over again.
Bale is sex.
Agreed, J.D., but Depp beats Bale any day, much how rock beats scissors.
Witness is one of my all-time favorite movies and I’m always so happy when other people like it. I could watch them dance in the barn all night. Love it, love it, love it.
Um, Bale is the rock in your RPS comparison. He’s also paper when necessary, AND scissors. He beats everyone, I’m thinking.
Depp is fucking overrated.
Heather, I just hit that scene…amazing. I love Witness; I hate that it seems to be one of those movies where people always forget it.
J.D., how dare you speak ill of Saint Johnny! How darrrreeee you! (He is so not overrated and I will always adore him for Edward Scissorhands and Cry Baby.)
I HAD TO. You honestly believe that prick is hotter than Christian! That is BLASPHEMY! *sobs*
He is! He is hotter than Christian! And I can’t believe that you called him a prick. Hmph! ::throws martini glass::
*screams, pulls off your weave*
YEAH. I went there. And I brought property.
:itotallyjustquotedhannahmontana:
WHAT.
J.D., that is wrong.
Ha! Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
*pouts*
I just watched Witness a few nights ago. It was much better than I remembered. My dad used to watch it every time it showed up on USA. Each time I would moan and groan about the “Amish movie” which I had convinced myself was long, stupid, boring, and long. This time, I felt differently. Danny Glover running around with a shotgun? Yes sir, I’d buy that for a dollar.
J.D.: Hugs.
Danny Glover running around with a shotgun? Yes sir, I’d buy that for a dollar.
I had (shockingly, enough) forgotten that Danny Glover was one of the bad guys in Witness.
My dad watches any movie on the Sci-Fi channel, so I sympathize, Scott.
I had forgotten how good the little kid from Witness is (Henry somethingoranother, Elliott from E.T. His real name escapes me). Amish people for the win!
