What? Eccleston is hilarious.

Man, I just don’t know. I absolutely adore the Lumet version as the big-let’s-all-put-on-a-show outsized grandiose scenery chewing party version of the book, and even the BBC’s Poirot series had a great, much darker take on the story that manages to cast things in a new light (aided by the completely wonderful David…

Kenneth Branagh keeps being given the chance to direct blockbusters and I don’t understand it.

There are some things that I’ve thought, at several different points in my life, that I’ve gotten over, and then realized that I haven’t. I have a much younger sister and I’m finding that…

Ok, I shared it to Groupthink.

I can and do feel deep sorrow for them.

Ah, Prince. A cornucopia of gorgeous, high-cheekboned skepticism.

Also.... that a nationalised health service works pretty damn well.

well, I mean if you put a damper on Lumiere, doesn’t he die? So......

This isn’t a debate.

hold on a moment there, if they fall in love as an appliances, when spell is broken, they are back to human form, they are still in love, well you know........ It’s B&B part 2 or a spin off.

I see it! <3
