Movies: The Losers (no spoilers)
May. 29th, 2010 05:22 pmSo, my local (and only, but I won't rant about that now) cinema FINALLY got around to showing The Losers.
I'll admit it, I was there for Jeffrey Dean Morgan.
(I'm now half convinced that Clay is our universe's version of the Comedian, btw. Yeah. Um...)
Also, and this may be a sign of the rather worrying extent to which fandom has taken over my brain, all it took was for one character to use the word "leverage", completely in context, not referring to a certain TV show/"consulting" group at all, and I started thinking "...hey, that would actually make a pretty awesome crossover".
Then I thought some more about it on the way home. I think I may have to actually write that now.
(completely unrelated, but I also thought that, were circumstances a little different, Clay would make a rather awesome Christopher Chance. Not that I want anything to happen to the current encumbent of that name, but, you know, if the situation was different....)
Anyway. Awesome movie. Unpretentious, lots of shit blowing up, but not "just a dumb action movie" either. Also, not lacking in the pretty. I mean, Cougar, guys. Just Cougar on his own would be enough. The others as well is just spoiling us.
Oh, and there was an ad for The A-Team before the movie, too, and I remembered why I want to see *that* movie. The reason? His name's Bradley Cooper. Yeahhhh....
