One of my students, wanting to recommend a film to me ("Blow Dry"), just asked me if I knew who Alan Rickman was.

BWAAAAHAHAHAHA...*choke*

I didn't do that, though. I merely asked him if that was a rhetorical question.

ETA: I should mention that this was an especially thickheaded thing for him to ask, because two days ago he had seen over my shoulder onto some post I was writing or reading, pointed out "Oh, did I just see the word 'Snape'?" and I confirmed that that was exactly what he saw. I suppose it's not 100% that someone who has read the books has seen the films, but still.

"Oh, yes- wasn't he in Galaxy Quest...?"

Blow Dry and Galaxy Quest are both outstanding films.

So he said, and I should see it, along with Mesmer. Right now my library is Harry Potter, Dogma (both good) and Prince of Thieves (which is terrible).

Prince of Thieves (which is terrible).

You take that back! I shall hear no ill of the Sheriff of Nottingham!

He has hideous hair and doesn't redeem the fact that the movie is just so irritating in the slightest. (IMO of course) I can sit through many bad movies (MST3K gives you some immunity), but I couldn't sit all the way through Prince of Thieves.
