Stardust

It's been a long time since I walked out of a movie theater saying "I need to see that again. No, I mean like RIGHT NOW."

Stardust had me saying that.

Yes the plot is as thin as a small town's phone book. So what? It's a fairy tale, people. You know the destination; it's the journey that's important.

And what a lovely, funny, beautiful, hysterical, delightful, perfectly cast journey it is. And did I mention hysterically funny? Smart-funny, the finest kind. And everyone in it shone.

Wanna go see it again. It's going on my pre-order list as soon as it's available.

As [livejournal.com profile] smoemeth said, it's THE PRINCESS BRIDE of this generation. Yeah. Only (dare I say it?) better.

(also: Nathaniel Parker? Would not kick him out of bed for eating crackers, no.)
