BLACK SWAN IS APPARENTLY AMAZING, SOMEONE C/D
pwhodges:
The Radio 4 program Front Row gave it a rather mediocre review (such that I wasn't planning to go and see it). The ballet person they had in disliked it a whole lot more than the other reviewer - but I guess this is not atypical when specialists review a non-specialist film that covers their area.
Wraith11B:
I liked it. I thought it was a good movie, along the lines of "Kiss Me Kate" but for a ballet and not Shakespeare. I will say that Natalie Portman nailed her performance, and Mila Kunis rocked as well.
And just for the bwuh-huh about the new Trek movie: you know, they also build very large ships (say, for instance, a San Antonio-class LPD or Essex-class LHAs, or even an Nimitz-class CVN) on dry land... and the LHAs are ported over land and for over a mile into the nearest water from Bath Iron Works... so, to say that a starship couldn't be launched from the ground is silly.
I also have had carnal knowledge and an extended relationship of/with members of the opposite sex, who were of age. None of the knowledge/trivia above prevented me from doing so.

I think the main problem is that a San Antionio-class LPD doesn't have to escape the Earth's gravitational pull

i've thought the ballet review community's reactions have been pretty hilarious just based on how like outrageously angry they've all been

i read one that was like "her dancing isn't even CLOSE to masterful, she spent a mere year learning what it takes a lifetime to do" and i just laughed my ass off
