    Forgetting Sarah Marshall

    There's a lot of shit out at the moment, but this was pretty solid. Mila Kunis was especially gorgeous. I quite liked the puppet musical, along with the clips from the crime show that they played throughout. I liked it well enough.

    Forgetting Sarah Marshall

    You've done two "bumps" this thread. I don't think you know what a bump is.

    Liberal party leadership speculation (already)

    Nelson has been an MP and was a cabinet minister for some time longer than Turnbull?

    Hillary Clinton OR Barack Obama?

    Because God knows Eleanor Roosevelt contributed nothing.

    Superhero movie

    I've recently started work at a cinema, and so have seen many parts of many films. I must admit, seeing Drake Bell explain to Leslie Nielsen about his superpowers made me chuckle. That said, we wait until all the patrons have left the theatre until we clean it. I've had quite a few...

    Scarlett Johansson sings Tom Waits

    Three tracks from Scarlett Johansson's debut album, Anywhere I Lay My Head, have been leaked. http://ailmh.muxtape.com/ I don't really know what I expected from it all, but this certainly wasn't what it was. I think I like it a lot more than I expected to though.

    O Superman turns me on, personally.

    trailers for upcoming movies that look awesome.

    I came in here to facetiously add Prom Night. Seeing it already in here has made my day.

    songs that turn you off

    Reading this thread, I've become convinced the majority of posters here don't understand what a boner entails.

    Voting at 16

    I think perhaps bringing in voluntary voting for people aged 16-18 is an idea, so that those who do have some opinion on politics are given the opportunity to vote if they so want.

    Anthony Minghella 1954-2008

    Pretty surprising. While I can't say I ever much liked a film he made, I never thought he lacked the potential to make a good film. Tragic death, though, and too soon.

    Modern rock is pathetic, we rule - Kiss

    Modern rock is shit, but so is Kiss. If I had to choose one or the other, I'd go with modern rock. That said, anyone else seen the Gene Simmons sex tape? http://fleshbot.com/358417/calling-dr-love-to-please-euthanize-us-the-gene-simmons-sex-tape Definitely what the world was waiting for.

    What was the first CD you bought?

    The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. I really loved Doo Wop so went ahead and bought the album for $4, I think. Good get! Only had two CDs cheaper: The Hold Steady's Separation Sunday for $3 and The Band's Music from Big Pink for $1. Good times. Never bought a single in my life. Am almost...

    oscar nods

    Everything more or less went for what was my first or second guess, with the only exception being the curveball of Tilda Swinton. Strange, also, that The Bourne Ultimatum won the second most awards for the night. In that sense it wasn't a particularly exciting night, but by the same token...

    Best Movie?

    My favourite movie has lately kind of alternated between Ikiru, Vertigo and Winter Light. Depends on my mood, really.

    Hillary Clinton OR Barack Obama?

    As I saw a commentator recently say, Obama's a change in the sense that he's slightly to the right of where the Democratic Party generally is. His great popularity puzzles me, I look for policy and I just hear him going on about things starting as whispers in cornfields that ended up in some...

    Parliament Discussion Thread

    Gillard's been pretty good though. Her slams on Bishop and Tuckey have been great to behold.

    is smoking weed bad?

    Not excessively, for the most, no. I'll have a couple, get tipsy at most, but I don't enjoy losing control of my actions. I enjoy sobreity. I socialise and have fun, but why can you not do that sober? Never played, but I am a Mario Kart fiend, I must confess.

    Juno

    Those first ten minutes were painful, as every line tried to be some great one liner and generally failed. After that (about the time Michael Cera's character got introduced, and they were done setting up Juno as this super-quirky character) I grew to enjoy it quite a bit, though I never got...

    oscar nods

    I exaggerated a touch. But, really, I haven't seen it in anyone's top five movies of the year list. Solid, but hardly spectacular. Also, I just noticed that Spider-Man 3 didn't get nominated for Best Visual Effects. That's a pretty big snub when you consider that it had the largest special...
