I agree with most of the above posters that this is anti-free-speech fascist BS … but I'll support it wholeheartedly if it keeps LVT from continuing to make crappy films. The guy is the art-house Uwe Boll.

So, who's the favorite for the Palme d'Or?
Based on my reading (of d'Angelo and others), The Tree of Life looks like it might be a favorite, especially with an American (DeNiro) heading the jury. And obviously Melancholia is out, thanks to Lars von Trier publicly stating what probably 1/4 of western Europe thinks in…

And was 11 years ago. Since then, he's morphed into a sort of art-house Uwe Boll, IMNVHO.

And if they're not, they should be.

I loved it when Flaubert asked "or is he full of shit?" about Lars von Trier. Haven't you seen any of his films?!? For the last decade, they've all pretty much played out like a long-form version of Farm Fresh Girl! Of COURSE, he's full of shit!

Stop.

People who sit through movies only to boo them at the end should be forced to wear a hat made of dog crap at all times. Not Chihuahua crap either — Rottweiler crap. Great Dane crap.

I agree with Angry. Michelle Williams is nowhere near that good-looking.

Tomorrow looks … accessible.
Toughest parts about reading reviews from Cannes are a) knowing that NONE of the films will ever show within 100 km of where I live, and b) how many of them sound unwatchable to me. But the three cued up for tomorrow seem like they might break out of both of those constrictions.

Just what the world needs — a creepier, skankier, less organized version of The Girlfriend Experience. Pass, thanks — bring on the Swinton.

Pugs is right. That's why Ellison is usually the guy featured in the classic joke about the short man (Ellison is maybe 5'2") coming up to a woman in a bar and asking "what would you say to a little fuck?" (Her rejoinder, of course, is "hello, little fuck.")

Actually, Tinkerbell …
… will be a Jodie-Foster-esque teenage hooker, who's working for Pan by luring other kids into his web. Chloe Moretz is rumored.

Nice use of the word "THRICE"
THRICE!

After three drinks. From the future.

"Here's my carrrrd …" Just creepy as fuck.

"WE CAME … WE SAW … WE KICKED ITS AAAASS!"

"I come from a long line of outlaws and frontiersmen …" (gets smacked by Holly Hunter)

You should be expecting the usual diseases, I expect.

"Stop leaking my motherfucking videos" …
… wait, there are videos out there of Lady Gaga fucking her mother?!? You need to post THOSE, AVC, not this piece of elephant shit!

I find myself agreeing with ^. I am suitably ashamed.
