[apocalypsos]

cleolinda linked to a USA Today article about the best and worst movie endings. And hey, where the heck is The Usual Suspects? I could remember sitting in a theater at college watching that and everybody in the theater gasping at the exact same time. Oh, and The Shawshank Redemption, too. That was a lovely ending, and absolutely perfect.

In related movie musings, yesterday they were talking on the Don and Mike show about the most romantic movie scenes ever, which apparently was a poll done by Blockbuster. (And I won't even bother to mention what came up on the list, because all of them were lame.) Do you know what was my favorite romantic moment in the last few years? Ewan McGregor giving Alison Lohman a field full of daffodils in Big Fish. Just ... just ... *swoon*

Also, I bought the Oscars issue of Entertainment Weekly. The photos they used for Jamie Foxx, Johnny Depp, and Clive Owen are so very, very yummy, and I loved the ones they took of Catalina Sandino Moreno and Kate Winslet, but I swear, every photo of Hilary Swank made her look like a crossdresser. Urgh.
