Ah, the week I've been waiting for. Two of the movies I've most wanted to see came out this week. Pirates of the Caribbean on Wednesday, and League of Extraordinary Gentlemen yesterday.
Pirates, as everyone seems to know already, was fucking awesome, and a slasher's wet dream. Johnny deserves all the praise and awards he could possibly get for this one. Orlando played our stoic hero well, and Keira Knightley wasn't as bad as I was afraid, though it squicks me to realize that she was only 17 when it was made. She's a cutie. And a nice, spunky heroine.
( And then, there's LXG. )
