Mostly because people quote films they haven't seen.<br />The worst is hearing someone saying "I'm ready for my closeup Mr. DeVille". And they're not trying to be funny. But because, they think that's the quote - but 99/100 times they wouldn't be able to tell you that it's from Sunset Blvd. Yikes. It's horrible. <br />My entire life I've watched my father correct people when quoting 'Gone With The Wind' and 'Casablanca" incorrectly.KTibbs617https://www.blogger.com/profile/00445549357901169458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-91903520918853801582010-10-23T10:58:37.168-04:002010-10-23T10:58:37.168-04:00Liz -- yeah, Sutton has been disappointing to the ...Liz -- yeah, Sutton has been disappointing to the say the least in that regard. She had the chance to be one of the rare bankable young Broadway superstars and instead she keeps singing up for things that will make plenty of bank but don't even remotely need her to do so. not really the way to make yourself an "essential" star. I wish she had some of Audra McDonald's fervor in promoting new composers.<br /><br />Anna & Arkaan -- here's where I say "i don't get it" about BEING HUMAN. I like supernatural stuff (on TV at least) and i have seen both season but I just absolutely don't think it's good. The internal logic never makes any sense to me, the stakes never seem high at all (given the entire concept and limited cast), but mostly it feels extremely repetitive as if each hour doesn't exist and then the next week's is kinda the same. I don't get it. But i'm glad people like it because i understand loving supernatural serials (see BUFFY)NATHANIEL Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11597109147678235399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-20859138003274540312010-10-23T09:15:18.455-04:002010-10-23T09:15:18.455-04:00Poppy -- I'm pretty sure she can do.

I’m curious of the untimely death of his editor will make him write something deeply personal. Thinking about the emotionalism in the latter half[s] of Kill Bill Vol. II and Jackie Brown. <br /><br />Streep is, too accustom to being accustom, to having others fawn and bow. How does one remove their self from that when they believe they’ve worked damn hard to earn it? She doesn’t seem at all humble. There’s no questioning her sincerity when she’s genuinely moved by another actor’s performance by I suspect she still puts on a performance for the populist of the biz./3rtfu11noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-1678435962959286802010-10-23T02:54:05.463-04:002010-10-23T02:54:05.463-04:00I was kinda wondering what happened to the Deneuve...I was kinda wondering what happened to the Deneuve post as well : / I saw it, but didn't get to read it.

It's just wonderfully brilliant. When I first saw it, I actually said out loud, "Did Joss Whedon move to Britain to create and write this show?"
