Hugo is to children what Graveyard of the Fireflies is to children.

If you put John Williams in a dryer, you get Jerry Goldsmith! You get the downside version!

Hugo is a painting in progress that only when completed do you see the entire picture and it is grand.
OH God, Joe is posting again, someone hand me my pills!

"You're not John Conner, I saw you die, said Kyle". "I was only injured, replied John". "No, your injuries were too severe, you died. Look at you, where are your injuries? You're, you're a Terminator." "Kyle, its still me, yes my body was beyond repair, but my essence is here." He points to his head. "No John". Kyle raised his pulse rifle and aimed it at John but before he could fire, John fired first. Knocked to the ground Kyle looked up at the Terminator in the form of the man he once idolized. All hope was lost. "If you kill me how will you ever be born?" "Thats a good question Kyle, all this time we've focus on Sarah, on John, when had we known the it was you we should have targeted all along." John pointed his rifle at Kyle's face. "The resistance is finished, the battle is won. We the machines are the victors, salvation is ours." Kyle never heard the second shot.

I was the first thing I read about Hugo on the internet. It said ... Scorsese's first movie for kids is fantastic ... or something like that. Lots of parents went to see it with their children.

I'm not only basing myself on that one review. I also saw the trailer and Joey loves it despite his hatred for classic Scorese movies. ;)

I just found a review or article which headlines read: "Hugo is not for kids!"

It's not even a family movie? What is this? Is it like Empire Of The Sun?

I only hate Cape Fear, I think Raging Bull is dull and boring but it's not for me. I like Taxi Driver and New York New York. His last with Leo was overrated.

Hugo is a beautifully shot film, it is worthy of all it's praise. I personally was skeptical but viewing the film won me over. I'm glad I had taken film history classes. It made my appreciation of the film even better.

Alex, Jason and I could easily tell you more about the film, but part of the film's charm is following the path of discovery yourself.

Battlestar Galactica Season 3: Well I am only 4 episodes in but this is a gripping season thusfar. The show is still going strong. Can't wait to finish!

Ars superior est vita hominum.

"We pop out and come into the world and music is there. We didn't invent it - it's all organised in the atmosphere by divinity or whatever. It's a miracle." - John Williams-

I think music is a stream of some kind. It could be blood. It could be water. It could be ether. Whatever it is it seems to be a living, organic force that’s in motion, that serves humanity and is part of humanity and part of what describes us as humans. We sing, play, dance, all the things that we do. And there is a vibrant and great literature we have been given. ... As musicians, we join the stream. We swim in the stream with all the other millions of music makers. It’s a life force, a strong one, surrounding us and we are part of it. -John Williams-

Karol
From a storytelling point of view, from a directing point of view, there is one thing I associate with what he does, which is calm. There is such an inherent calm and inherent trust of the one powerful image, that he makes me embarrassed with my own work, in terms of how many different shots, how many different sound effects, how many different things we’ll throw at an audience to make an impression. But with Kubrick, there is such a great trust of the one correct image to calmly explain something to audience. There can be some slowness to the editing. There’s nothing frenetic about it. It’s very simple. There’s a trust in simple storytelling and simple image making that actually takes massive confidence to try and emulate. - Christopher Nolan

Community is easily the best comedy on TV right now....you're nuts Steef.

I can't believe that Harmon isn't coming back! This is terrible news....
I'm almost certain these new guys are not going to live up to him....and here I was thinking that I could at least rely on one show to not dwindle into insignificance for me. This sucks. And with Community being moved to Friday, things aren't looking too good for the show.

See, that kind of attitude is as backward as any PC pussy idiots out there. Just because it's animation it automatically means its for children. You'd be surprised at how much cartoons have changed from the days of "big eyed cartoons" from the past. In fact I can vouch that today's children's are exposed to cartoons with the same atmosphere as Dexter and Breaking Bad.

And as for the ones I've mention, no they're not "big eyed cartoons" like you say. I'm not that juvenile to suggest little kiddie cartoons in an adult oriented forum (I've outgrown them anyhow).


Not when the subject matter involves r

eal guns that are frequently used (although lasers are also shown), there are fairly complex running storylines, innuendo-laced jokes are made, characters are killed, and there are also allusions to real world political situations such as in North Korea and the Middle East (albeit with obvious stand-ins

). It's made all the more baffling since the series is currently aired on Saturday Mornings rather than a prime time slot, where more adult-oriented content like The Clone Wars


is usually placed on Cartoon Network.

Who in their right mind would watch those? (The badly animated poorly dubbed I mean). No seriously, this is some top notch animation and this are made by American production, plus the story is tight.

And saying anime or manga are all badly animated or poorly dubbed is like saying all Muslims are all terrorists.

Well I meant that I loved the stuff and could not wait to watch the rest of the season. But you knew that didn't you. ;)

And yes 4th season was also terrific although there were a few weaker episodes in the middle and took away from the central plot but I really liked the ending of the show even though it was over so fast.

Most anything by Hayao Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli is perfect or damn near.

You should try the Airbender series. The first few episodes might be a little dull but it gets better.

If Lee doesn't like the quality of the animation it doesn't help if the plot gets better, unless you mean that he might be swept off by it and give the animation quality some slack?

I actually was positively surprised by the plot of Avatar the Last Airbender which was an imaginative mix of humor, action and growth story.

Lee - who things Spirited Away is one of the best fantasy movie's of all time.


Agreed!

Yeap. Even though the story still boggles my mind with quite foreign fantastical designs and concepts. But the animation is brilliant and the whole film captures very well the fantastical cause and effect of the world of spirits and faerie, where human ideas don't always hold true.

Ars superior est vita hominum.

"We pop out and come into the world and music is there. We didn't invent it - it's all organised in the atmosphere by divinity or whatever. It's a miracle." - John Williams-

I think music is a stream of some kind. It could be blood. It could be water. It could be ether. Whatever it is it seems to be a living, organic force that’s in motion, that serves humanity and is part of humanity and part of what describes us as humans. We sing, play, dance, all the things that we do. And there is a vibrant and great literature we have been given. ... As musicians, we join the stream. We swim in the stream with all the other millions of music makers. It’s a life force, a strong one, surrounding us and we are part of it. -John Williams-

I don't like anything Japanese.

Except Sushi.
