(no subject)

I only have enough time to see one movie tomorrow. On one hand, I have tangible proof from the Wimbledon trailer that Paul Bettany allows his abdominal area a bit of quiet, thankfully visible introspection. On the other hand, Gwyneth Paltrow is easy to make fun of, and Jude Law is a half-ton of sex poured into a thimble.

I saw Wimbledon tonight. It's decent. Worthwhile just to see Paul Bettany smile. Yum.

Sky Captain: One of the worst pieces of trash I've see in a while, and even Jude is airbrushed so as to hide the natural pretty.

Wimbledon: Not just abdominal area but arse and (wait for it) hip bones. And Paul gets to run around in shorts and wife beaters while poor Jude is stuck in his silly fighter pilot outfit almost all the time.

Mmm, hipbones. Abs. Arse. Hipbones. *is dead*

See, the downside of telling me that about Sky Captain is that crap always makes for the best Q&A reviews.

Yes, but it is our duty to see that Wimbledon has a huge opening weekend so that the big shots in H'Wood will decide to make many more pictures in which Paul can show off his hip bones acting ability. It's your duty, man!

Also, Sky Captain is so bad that it'd just be too easy.

Paul Bettany's hip bones?

OUCH! I just spontaneously ovulated with the force of a double-barrel shotgun! Well, that will probably impair my future fertility.

*sigh* Disabled by another lanky brit. Such is the way of my life...

well, my vote is for sky captain, because not only do get almost three hours of jude law, you also avoid seeing kirsten dunst. the latter of which, of course, is enough reason for me to see a movie any day.

Such a no-brainer. Jude Law all the way.

I vote Sky Captain, because it looks phenomenal and has gotten a lot of buzz, which scares me in terms of what the movie will be like. It makes seeing a movie an adventure, no doubt. And it has Angelina Jolie AND Jude Law, which means the screen should spontaneously combust from teh sex. :)

Angelina Jolie in an eye patch. You know something's wrong when they make Angelina Jolie wear an eyepatch and Gwyneth Paltrow gets to be the leading lady.

I'd have to say go see Sky Captain. It's more like a ton and a half. And yes, Gwyneth Paltrow is very easy to make fun of. Lois Lane she ain't. :)

[personal profile] dayoff and I loooooooved Sky Captain. Plus, Kristin Dunst! Ew! This is the girl who said she hopes MJ gets "blown up or something" in the next movie!

Sky Captain, simply because the title is hilarious and it contains Jude Law. And airships. Airships!!

WIMBLEDON! Boost those opening weekend ticket sales! Otherwise darlingest Paul may be relegated to second banana roles the rest of his career!

Not that he isn't spectacular, whatever banana he's playing, but still...

Sexxay! In spite of Kirsten Dunst! Her asshattery and floppy boobs are emminently mockable!
