Movie: After Life: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0165078/

Series: ReGenesis: http://www.tv.com/regenesis/show/29414/summary.html?q=&tag=search_results;title;1

Ooh, thanks! Those both look really good. :-)

Baby's Day Out. It's very funny.

Thanks!

are you watching eureka? i can't ever remember who watches it and who doesn't. because that. :D

I'm not, but maybe I should be! I'll keep my eye out for a marathon or something so I can get caught up. Thanks!

I just finished the first season of HBO's Rome and I really enjoyed it; the second season is coming via Netflix any day now.

Did you see Latter Days (a movie about a gay Mormon, very cute with a happy ending)? I think you might like it. In a similar vein, Saved! (about a group of high school seniors at a very small town, very Christan high school) is unbelievably funny, and also has a sweet ending.

I don't think I realized that Rome was out on DVD -- I'll check it out!

I did see Latter Days and Saved! and really enjoyed both. Thank you! *Hugs*

Death at a Funeral (http://www.deathatafuneral-themovie.com/) for a bit of English comedy complete with sibling rivalry over writerly reputations and eulogy-giving, blackmail, accidental ingestion of illicit hallucinogens, and quite a bit of naked Alan Tudyk. Wonderful ensemble cast and humor of questionable taste...considering the setting. If you can find this one playing somewhere near you, I definitely recommend it.

I've seen quite a bit of talk about this one! I'll probably wait until it comes out on DVD, but I can add it to my Netflix queue now while I'm thinking of it. Thank you!

"Italian for beginners": An awesome Danish romantic comedy/drama with a low key, engaging cast and a story line that is both charming and interesting.

TV show....Hornblower? ( Actually, I think it's released as Horatio Hornblower in the US). Swashbuckling! Naval Engagements! Ioan Gruffudd having an excellent English accent! One scene of random male nudity! Implied sodomy!

Cool! I'd never heard of that movie and I've never seen Hornblower. I'll have to check them out. Thanks! :-)

Movie: Have you seen "The Departed"? It was definitely my fave movie of last year. I really liked "Hot Fuzz"--pretty hilarious, although "Sean of the Dead", which is with the same guys, is a bit funnier, IMHO.

TV Show: Have you seen "Deadwood"? Probably in like top 5 fave shows of all time. Swearingen is one of the most amazing characters I've seen come to life. There is a lot of swearing, though. I second the Rome recommendation of "Rome", which is fantastic. "Battlestar Gallactica" is amazing, but you really would have a lot of catching up to do (if you decide to see this one, definitely start with the mini series before going into Season One.

You know, I haven't seen The Departed and someone else mentioned it recently, so I'll have to put it in my queue! And nope, haven't seen Deadwood. Thank you!

Okay, here goes:

Movie- I'm going with an oldie, but IMO, a goodie-"much ado about nothing" with Kenneth and Emma. Those two are amazing. I actually watched Henry V for them, which it was totally worth, btw.

TV Show- Supernatural. Seriously, it's not high drama or anything, but it's a damned good show and you should give it a chance. I think it might remind you of the good parts of the Whedonverse plus an unbelievably good soundtrack AND '67 Chevy Impala. Perfection.

*Grin* We have the same taste! I love Much Ado and Supernatural. I want an Impala now, LOL. *Is easily suggestible*

Jensen AND Jared are going to be there. So is Ellen and the YED. I am excessively excited. I have to buy my photo-op time, but I get a free autograph and shwag.

I expect you to be horrifically jealous.

I am TOTALLY horrifically jealous. *Seethes with envy*

I want everyone to be pea-green with jealousy. I want them to gnash their teeth and swear and curse my name. I get autographs with both of the boys AND a bunch of other stuff.

hee. I made you jealous. Does this mean that U R juz a jealuzz fngrl??!11!!!

I want to hurt people who type like that normally, but I feel that a jealuz fngrl like U would understand it.

Meee!

OMG, I am such a jealuzz fngrl that I've been stewing about it all thiz time!!1!!

*Seethes with jealuzzy*

I knew it! I've managed to make the august WG jealuzz.

I'm pretty excited about the whole thing.

You should be! I'm sure it's going to be awesome. I expect to hear all about it afterwards (and possibly during!) :-D

Film: "Grandma's Boy" - Most certainly. Hilarious gamer/smoker movie that makes fun of a lot of stereotypes and has the characters from pretty much all the Happy Madison films.

TV: "Jekyll" - Awesome rendition/continuation of the Jekyll & Hyde story. Three thumbs up. It's now on BBC America, but you can also find it here: http://tv-links.co.uk

Oh, those both sound interesting and I hadn't heard of either! Thank you. :-)

TV Show: I have 2...Big Love and The Closer. Both are AWESOME.

Movie: Mysterious Skin. Because I just saw some icons for it someone made and it reminded me of the creepysadness of it.

I feel like I've missed a lot of The Closer. Is it too late for me to jump in now and have it make any sense, do you think? Hm, maybe it's out on DVD...

I've seen all of S1 of Big Love and thought it was really great. I'm looking forward to seeing more when it's out on DVD! And I really liked Mysterious Skin, too. I'd read the book first.

*Smooch*

I thought the book was way better than the movie. Way.

Movie: Disco Pigs, an Irish independent movie about an extremely (too?) close friendship that goes wrong when one of them falls for the other as teenagers.

TV show: Dead Like Me or At Home With the Braithwaites, if you have access to it. It's a British TV show about a family that wins the lottery.

Ooh, I hadn't heard of Disco Pigs or the Braithwaiters, and they both sound interesting! I've seen Dead Like Me and love love love it. :-) Thanks!

Disco Pigs is my favourite movie and it made me realise that I have a 'thing' for similarly themed movies of dependent friendships where the relationship changes and things go to hell. I've found a few and Me Without You is another very good one.

I did see Me Without You, and I liked it but didn't love it. I'm not sure why. I just recently saw All Over Me -- similar but not identical theme -- and that one was very good.

I'll keep an eye out for that one then, thanks :)

Seconding the Jekyll as a TV show worth catching. (It's a mini-series, only six eps long but brilliant fun.)

Films, hmm.
> Hot Fuzz (Black comedy that leaves you wanting to join the met.)
> The Weeping Camel (Short, sweet tale of a rejected baby camel in the desert and how the tribe of herders respond.)
> The Lives of Others (Brilliant, brilliant film about East/West Germany.)
> Pan's Labyrinth (Dark, gothic Spanish fairytale, loved the ambiguous ending.)
> Bedrooms & Hallways (Fun brit straight/gay/bi film about learning to keep an open mind.)

Thanks! I've been planning to see Hot Fuzz because I loved Shaun of the Dead, and I did see Pan's Labyrinth and thought it was amazing, but I'd never heard of the other ones. :-)

In the mood for some mysterious journeys?

Movie: Picnic on Hanging Rock by Peter Weir (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073540/) for the strangest vintage schoolgirl school outing in history. It's old, but the weirdness keeps.

TV: Mmhh..., with so many nice things in the list... how about something short: The Lost Room, which is a mini-series (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0830361/) that certainly builds a mystery.

Mind if I profit from some of those recs?

Strangely enough, I've actually seen Picnic on Hanging Rock (and yes, it is totally weird,) but not The Lost Room. I do love Peter Krause. Feel free to profit from the recs! Thank you. :-)

You should check out Summer Storm. I *just* (as in, two minutes ago) finished watching it, and my first thought was, "Hey, this was actually a pretty good gay film! I should recommend it to WG!" It seems that you watch enough gay cinema that you're the first one I think of when I see something good. :)

Lay it on me!
