My father worked on How to Train Your Dragon as a Character TD Supervisor. The film is dear to my heart. And Toothless always makes me smile.

This is truly an amazing achievement. It’s a nice little contained film, even if you don’t know too much about Portal.
Kevin Spacey impersonates Jimmy Stewart, Johnny Carson, Katharine Hepburn, Clint Eastwood, Sir John Gielgud, Marlon Brando, Christopher Walken, Al Pacino, and Jack Lemmon.
Jolly good show, I must say. :D
A Day at the Movies
Let me get this out of the way first: I watched Prince of Persia today and it was awful. Don’t go see it; not even the fight scenes were particularly well-constructed.
My real delight today was watching the film adaptation of Hamlet with Mel Gibson. For what it’s worth, I think that it is the best film adaptation of that play. Its emotional depth is surprising given most other adaptations are rather dreary.
And what lovely acting! Mel Gibson presents a memorable Hamlet, but it’s fascinating to watch the other brilliant actors in the supporting roles. Ian Holm gave a memorable performance as Polonius—witty and wise, just as Shakespeare intended. I was shocked to discover that Helena Bonham Carter (who played Ophelia) is a talented actress when she doesn’t hide behind eye liner and Alan Rickman.
Horror Movies I’ve Seen
As mahgreggah has done, I have checked off my “Have Seen” from The Vault of Horror’s list of Best Horror Movies.
Anyone else a little annoyed that there’s now a remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street?
I know this came out a year ago, but it being Friday the 13th and all, I thought I’d share. Enjoy!
