Haole was mentioned in the movie a few times, did you understand any of that?

This is going to sound strange, but Snow White and the Huntsman was actually pretty decent. Enjoyed it more than I thought I might.

I had high hopes after watching the trailer and was disappointed. If I had gone in with lower expectations, it might have helped.

I'd have enjoyed it FAR more if Kristen Stewart wasn't the lead. Christ she's terrible. I ranted about it in the thread about it and caught some flack about not expecting it because she did pretty much the same thing in the twilight flicks. I then had to retaliate by stacking shit on them for actually watching twilight.

Anyway, I thought Hemsworth and Theron killed it. Production was good. I liked the story. Everything was excellent. Except Stewart. She is so so so shitty.

Ho-Lee-Chit.

Bale was great, Marky Mark was great, Amy Adams was great, Melissa Leo was great.

But this had the luck of a great story and great writers and directors to bring it to life.

I think it was actually all the small touches. Amy Adams being hot as ****, yet a little pot belly [sorry Omaha] to make her human. The little look she gave when Micky stood up for her at the bar and she was like 'OK, worth a shot.' Done a million times and that's the best one ever. Go back and look. How Dicky can legitimately both the life of the party and the bane of everyone's existence. Mickey's [sp] portrayal of when he was a wall flower and when he was assertive, and why,

And OMG, the way Dickey subtly fades back with a lot of love and amazement at his brother at the end as others gather around, then him tearing up about the new pride of Lowell a few seconds later.

And that doesn't even get into the fight mechanics. After watching about 80-100 HBO fights, including a number of Mickey's, that was the most realistic re-enactments I've ever seen in a film.

A big story that gets all the small things right. A Masterpiece.
