"Gilmore Girls" - Quotes from season 3

I've been busy last weeks, so it is probably the last post with quotes from "Gilmore Girls". But I still had time to choose the most interesting, sarcastic and wise from them.

"Gilmore Girls" is a mother/daughter story about life, love, managing problems and following their dreams. And also this show is very sunny, romantic, a bit dramatic and very witty. Its characters always make me smile, but with every season it becomes more dramatic.

Created by Amy Sherman-Palladino.
Starring Lauren Graham, Alexis Bledel, Jared Padalecki, Keiko Agena, Scott Patterson, Kelly Bishop, Edward Herrmann, Melissa McCarthy, David Sutcliffe, Milo Ventimiglia.

More "Gilmore Girls" quotes!

Episode 1

Lorelai: Last night, when I said to you "Tomorrow, no matter what, make sure I get up at seven," what I actually meant was "Tomorrow, no matter what, make sure I have the option of getting up at seven in case when seven comes, I actually wanna get up," which – as it happened – I didn't. Therefore, you're currently responsible for the great alarm clock slaughter of 2002.

Lorelai: Yeah. I wonder if Christopher and Sherry's baby is going to look like me?

Episode 2

Emily: At least she had a husband to kill.

Lorelai: Say "Sorry, Grandma, but if my mother sees you, she'll run screaming down the hall."

Christopher: She did not get there by herself.
Lorelai: Hey, have you ever met your daughter? She could get anywhere by herself! She could get to the third dimension by herself! She was helping the crossing guard when she was four.

Lorelai: By the way, I'm also a communist. Yes, because I look damn good in red.

Episode 3

Luke: Sorry, just missed my youth for a second. I'm back. Coffee?

Rory: You can't freak out, I'm freaking out!

Rory: No, this is not a gift. These are my records – grades, SATs.
Lorelai: It's Rory in a bag – you add water and her brilliance springs out.

Episode 4

Lorelai: I'm out hunting –
Rory: A favorite Lorelai Gilmore pastime.
Lorelai: And my shotgun backfires and my whole face spins around a bunch of times and winds up in the back of my head like Daffy Duck. [about her weird dream]

Lorelai: Lose the baseball cap, too.
Jess: You run the risk of his head falling off without it.

Episode 5

Lorelai: You don't need shoes! In my day, we walked twenty miles in the snow just to get to our shoes!

Lorelai: Okay now, if for some reason, he does turn out to have like a horn in the middle of his forehead, you will call me in one hour with a very high fever. [how to get out of boring date]

Episode 6

Lorelai: Check this out. [picks up a stack of catalogs] This is a stack of identical catalogs mailed to Lorelai Gilmore, Rory Gilmore, Lorelai Rory Gilmore, Lorelai V. Gilmore, Lorelai Victoria Gilmore, Lorelai Gilmo, Lorelai Gil, and Squeegy Beckinheim.
Rory: How would that get in there?
Lorelai: I once told a store my name was Squeegy Beckinheim just to see how many catalogs they would sell my name to, and apparently my name is to catalog companies what Brooke Shields' picture is to Chinese restaurants. [she knows how to entertain herself]

Lorelai: Aren't baby shower balloons supposed to reflect the sex of the baby? Blue for boys, pink for girls. What's green for, aliens?

Lorelai: I just wanna rearrange her whole house.
Rory: You can't do that.
Lorelai: Please? Let me just mess up her bed. You make a distraction, like setting a fire, and I'll run up and un-color-coordinate her sheets. [planning how to drive crazy Sherry]

Episode 7

Rory: Well, there's this big event that's happening in my town. . .
Paris: Pig race?

Jackson: My child-bearing arrangements are between me and Sookie.
Luke: And the Lord. Still not helping?

Luke: Do I look like a cobbler to you?
Lorelai: If I say yes, will you fix my shoe?

Episode 8

Lorelai: It's my fault, I'm not focusing.
Rory: Yes, that must be why we can't move a half a city block closer to us.

Episode 9

Rory: What is the oil for?
Lorelai: For pouring on Visigoths.

Natalie: You have your mother's wit.
Emily: Sometimes I wish she'd give it back.

Episode 10

Lorelai: I have a spider whose previous credits include the bathtub scene from Annie Hall trapped under that cup.
Dean: The size of a Buick?

Lorelai: Don't let his family see you. Spiders are vindictive.

Lorelai: You rented your house to Korn?

Episode 11

Maid: Your mother's in the living room.
Lorelai: So last chance to run, huh?

Alex: I actually called your inn. I was gonna leave a message, but this French guy just gave me your home number. Said I shouldn't worry about calling too late, that you usually stay up until three, four in the morning.
Lorelai: Yeah, don't worry about him, he's getting fired tomorrow. [about how Alex got her number]

Episode 12

Rory: We're not always going to like the same things. Like, you like Smashing Pumpkins and I don't.
Lane: But that's only 'cause you're close-minded and blind.

Episode 13

Emily: Yes, but you're not a kid, you're a grown woman. What are people going to think when they see a grown woman bunking down with a bunch of twenty-year-olds?
Lorelai: Well, if the twenty-year-olds are cute, they'll probably think: 'Lucky!' [about road trip to Europe]

Lorelai: It's heavy. Must be her hopes and dreams for me. [about a box from her mother]

Episode 14

Lorelai: That's the thing. I have no packing crisis. For the first time in my life, there is no packing crisis. See? This has never happened to me before. I'm all packed, ready to go, and fully confident that I have everything I'll need or desire.
Rory: So you're creating a crisis out of nostalgia?

Episode 15

Emily: I never really truly appreciated the Atlantic Ocean before. Three thousand lovely miles of water. [regretting that her anxious mother-in-law came to visit them from London]

Guest: Don't give me that attitude, Frenchy. You'd be speaking German now if it wasn't for me.

Episode 16

Lane: It's getting frustrating. I mean, there's so many great songs that have been written post-Cobain, but try and convince Zach of that.

Max: You really hate him
Lorelai: I smile, I say hi, I let him eat the good cookies.
Max: You wanna have him killed.
Lorelai: Only if I get a really good price. [about Rory's boyfriend]

Episode 17

Sookie: Jackson moved a table and just kind of nicked this spider. He didn't see the little thing, and just clipped one of its legs. And it was having trouble walking and we were so upset, but Jackson made a new leg for it out of a paper clip, but jamming the clip into the spider killed it instantly.

Miss Patty: Poor Edgar Allen Poe, he suffered so much. And now we gotta suffer along with him. [while listening to a very dull reading of "Raven"]

Episode 18

Lorelai: No comment on my lesbian hilarity. My, how far we've come.

Episode 19

Lorelai: Oh, I know! How about ... no.
Rory: No, no, you can't keep doing that. You can't just start a thought and then say no. Finish them or don't start them at all.
Lorelai: You're very totalitarian today.

Episode 20

Lorelai: Your first cop-raided party. I am just so proud.
Rory: Mom.
Lorelai: I just wish I could've been there.

Louise: Hopefully the pearls I get when she kicks.

Rory: I know. That's why it's fun. [giving him a wedding gift]

"The Muppets" (2011) - "The Pig With The Froggy Tattoo" parody trailer

I saw one parody trailer, where all Muppets along with two humans went crazy and made fun of some horror films. Then I just couldn't stop myself. I found another one and I loved it. It is a great parody of "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" trailer. All the details, very similar soundtrack, tense atmosphere and those huge blinking titles match perfectly. "The Pig With The Froggy Tattoo" is one more thing that makes me like this upcoming film even more (I'm talking here about "The Muppets").

Starring Jason Segel, Amy Adams, Chris Cooper.

Release dates - November 23, 2011 (Canada, USA), February 10, 2012 (UK).

"My Week With Marilyn" (2011) - Black-and-white poster

While I'm writing a much bigger post, I thought I should share this beautiful black-and-white poster from upcoming biopic about Marilyn Monroe. This film has already been presented at the New York Film Festival and some critics love it, but some dislike it. I'm trying not to listen to them, because I know I'll like it.

Moviefone revealed this new and gorgeous poster. Michelle Williams was photographed by Brigitte Lacombe, whose works you can see by visiting her official website.

Starring Michelle Williams, Kenneth Branagh, Eddie Redmayne, Dominic Cooper with Emma Watson and Judi Dench.
Directed by Simon Curtis ("David Copperfield" 2000, "A Short Stay In Switzerland" 2009).

Release dates - November 23 (USA), November 25 (UK).

Not very scary films for Halloween

If you aren't going to attend some huge event on this holiday or you're planning to throw a party at home, you will need to choose one or two interesting films to watch with friends or family. There are plenty of horrors, but I don't like to be very scared, so I've made my own list with interesting films, which are Halloween-related and harmless. Almost.

P.S. I promise it is not all just about Tim Burton.

1."The Nightmare Before Christmas" (1993)
What? Christmas? I know. But there are more pumpkins than Christmas trees, more skeletons than lights and the main character is the King of all Scariness. Tim Burton created an animated masterpiece, which is creepy and dark, but also charming and even romantic.

2."Fright Night" (1985)
Tom Holland wrote a great vampire story, which is way better than present horrors about these incredible night creatures. Chris Sarandon played a character, which I will never forget. His vampire is powerful, scary, hypnotising and bloody. His common scenes with actress Amanda Bearse are very intimate and sexy. And the atmosphere of this horror is tense and old style.

3."Corpse Bride" (2005)
Tim Burton shows that there is life after death and he does it with dark humour. Love story, dancing skeletons (Danny Elfman is singing with them in "Remains Of The Day") and a fatal proposal in the graveyard. It is beautifully made and you can hear there voices of Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter and Emily Watson.

4."Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" (2001)
You know I'm a fan of this story, but for Halloween I chose the first film. Why? Because there is one memorable scene in the Great Hall, where everyone is celebrating this scary holiday. Plus, there is lots of magic, which is very proper for our occasion.

5."Sleepy Hollow" (1999)
What can be better than a Headless Horseman, who is terrorising a little town? Maybe Johnny Depp as Ichabod Crane, who faints every time when sees blood. Or beautiful young Christina Ricci as an aristocratic lady. Burton can be scary, when he wants to make us look back every time we hear sound of the hooves.

6."The Crow" (1994)
Tragic, dark, horrifying... This film is incredible story about love and revenge. Brandon Lee makes me cry every time, because it was his last film, but he made his character memorable, strong and painful. I like his Gothic make-up and outfit. My favourite moment is when he plays "Inferno" on electric guitar.

7."The Addams Family" (1991) and "Addams Family Values" (1993)
The creepiest, kookiest, spookiest, ookiest family of all times knows how to make you laugh. Great cast, dark jokes and very old mansion with personal cemetery. Lovely, isn't it? Two masterpieces from Barry Sonnenfeld.

8."From Dusk Till Dawn" (1996)
Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino are here to make us scream. Their vampires are ugly bloodsuckers, who are going to kill every human left in that cursed bar. George Clooney rocks here along with Tom Savini, Danny Trejo, Cheech Marin, Harvey Keitel, Juliette Lewis and Salma Hayek, who played the sexiest female vampire of all times.

9."Van Helsing" (2004)
I chose this one over "Dracula" and "Interview with the Vampire", because I love this film more. Hugh Jackman became a great vampire hunter, Kate Beckinsale is feisty and Richard Roxburgh played one of my favourite vampires. As a bonus there are a werewolf, three female Dracula's brides, a Frankenstein and funny priest.

10."The Wolfman" (2010)
Ok, this one can be scary, but I can tell you it is more dangerous, Gothic and very tense than horrifying. Benicio Del Toro and Anthony Hopkins made it unforgettable father-son story. Also there is howling and a full moon...

11."Beetle Juice" (1988)
Michael Keaton makes an unbelievable performance, while Winona Ryder talks to ghosts and Catherine O'Hara is the best at making creepy stuff for home. With all those costumes this film is very Halloween oriented.

Want more not very scary films to see on this Halloween?
I can suggest "Zombieland", "Shaun of the Dead", "Die Nacht der lebenden Loser", "Once Bitten" with young Jim Carrey, "The Little Vampire", all Tim Burton or Quentin Tarantino films, "The Frighteners", "Ghost Busters", "Casper", "Elvira: Mistress of the Dark", "Coraline".

"In the Land of Blood and Honey" (2011) - Trailer and thoughts

Last week was full of interesting news, but my favorite is a trailer release of Angelina Jolie's directorial debut. It has a beautiful and dramatic title "In the Land of Blood and Honey", there are no Hollywood stars and it's the first time, when this talented woman wrote the whole script and then spent many months directing it in Eastern Europe. Interesting fact is that the film was shot in English and the Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian language, also known as BHS.

This story is about the Bosnian War, the loss and the big love. To be honest, this topic is very painful for those people, whose history it is. That is why some people say this film is a disregard of those, who died there.

A Serbian man and a young Bosnian-Muslim woman met each other and fell in love while there is a destruction and death everywhere. So their love is forbidden and fated. Main parts are played by local actors - Zana Marjanovic and Goran Kostic. You can also see there famous Rade Serbedzija, a former Yugoslavian actor, who started his career long time ago. His last part was in "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1" as the wandmaker Gregorovitch.

There is information that Angelina has already been a director of a documentary "A Place in Time", but did anybody see it? I think it was made for television in 2007. "In the Land of Blood and Honey" is more complicated and I hope it will be a great debut for her.

Release date - December 23, 2011 (USA)

"The Muppets" posters are going crazy, stupid... love?

Yesterday four new couple posters were revealed on "The Muppets" Facebook page. I like them, because they are funny, colourful and with very suitable titles. What can be good for an all-ages animated film? Wait a minute. Aren't these posters seem to be familiar? Yes, they do, if you've seen posters for this summer's romantic comedy called "Crazy, Stupid, Love". That posters were made in similar colours, with 2-3 characters and similar phrases on them. And did you noticed their background?

I post just two of "Crazy, Stupid, Love" posters, it you want to see them all, click here.

Top-5 movies of the week - 21.10 - 27.10

Hi, everyone! I hope you don't forget to watch good movie these rainy days. There are three directorial debuts, which you might like. Maybe one of their filmmakers will become world famous in the next few years. We'll see.

1."Retreat"
Nice couple lives in a picturesque and peaceful place. All seams fine, until one young man runs into their cottage and tells them there is a dangerous virus in the city, so they should be prepared. They've already turned a comfortable house into some sort of bunker when young couple understands that this danger isn't outside. Its trailer reminded me "28 Days Later", but there is a huge difference. You don't know whether out there is an epidemic or that guy is simply insane.
Directed by Carl Tibbetts, it's his debut.
Starring Cillian Murphy, Thandie Newton, Jamie Bell.
Trailer.

2."Oranges And Sunshine"
Based on a true story, this movie tells us about Margaret Humphreys, a social worker from Nottingham, who tries to fix the horrible government's mistake. Many children were forced to move from the United Kingdom to Australia. Now they want to find their relatives, to reunite with families and to discover who they really are. But there is a system, which doesn't like to admit its wrong and inhuman actions and just one woman, who fights it. I should say it is very inspiring story.
Directed by Jim Loach, it's his debut.
Starring Emily Watson and Hugo Weaving with David Wenham.
Trailer.

3."Martha Marcy May Marlene"
Martha, a young woman, calls her sister to pick her up in the middle of nowhere. After returning to their home, she experiences great difficulties to live a normal life. Painful memories and increasing paranoia don't give her a chance to start over. She might have done some horrible things in the past, which now are haunting her. This psychological drama looks to be very tense with some unexpected plot twists.
Directed by T. Sean Durkin, it's his debut.
Starring Elizabeth Olsen, Hugh Dancy.
Trailer.

4."Paranormal Activity 3"
It's the third movie and people aren't still tired of being scared of the same story. I'm not a big fan of horrors, so I haven't even watched its trailer. The one thing you should know: it's prequel, which has to show us how this chilling story begins.
Directed by Henry Joost , Ariel Schulman.
Starring Katie Featherston.
Trailer.

5."The Three Musketeers"
Don't expect from it something huge and impressive. It looks like this new story based on Alexandre Dumas' legendary novel is a disaster of this season. With such strong cast, impressive fights, gorgeous costumes and special effects, this movie hasn't become critics' favorite. Plus you have to over pay, because there is 3D. "The Three Musketeers" is very expensive pop flick and I won't compare it to Guy Ritchie's great "Sherlock Holmes" anymore.
Directed by Paul W.S. Anderson ("Resident Evil", 2002).
Starring Logan Lerman, Luke Evans, Ray Stevenson, Matthew Macfadyen, Milla Jovovich, Orlando Bloom, Christoph Waltz.
Trailer.

"Sherlock Holmes 2" (2011) - Second trailer

Brand new "A Game of Shadows" trailer has been revealed and it looks great. The Trio (aka Holmes, Watson and dangerously beautiful Ms. Adler) are in big trouble again. There are new villain, new secrets, new shootings and Sherlock Holmes has a new lipstick. Costumes, special effects and gothic decorations are incredible and created a dramatic atmosphere. And I'm glad that this film will be also full of witty jokes and sarcasm of the main characters.

Favourite line:
- What do you see?
- Everything. That is my curse.

Starring Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law, Rachel McAdams, Jared Harris (son of talented actor Richard Harris), Eddie Marsan, Stephen Fry and Noomi Rapace.
