And isn't it S2 that gave us David Duchovny in drag?
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Yep! I loved, TP, and was horribly, tragically disappointed by Fire Walk with Me.

Just low blood sugar. Ate a Snickers. Thanks for coming.
House of the Dead is showing on Showtime this week. The 5 minutes I watched looked pretty awful. I'd watch anything Caroline Dhavernas does, but Tyron Leitso - not so much.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Out Cold may change your mind about that... I walked out before the opening credits finished rolling. And this is coming from someone who sat through Daredevil until the end.
Tyron, for the record, played a gun savvy underwear model who inexplicably stayed fully dressed throughout the movie and spent the first half speaking in a faux British accent to impress chicks.

If you were expecting a Twin Peaks movie, I totally understand how you'd feel this way, but I absolutely adore FWWM as a David Lynch movie.
Hella disturbing, and Sheryl Lee was absolutely amazing. But decidedly not the fun ride (no matter the occasional odd digression) that Twin Peaks was overall.

Plus Profit. Which is now also coming out on DVD.
Awesome.
Caroline and DB in a movie. Neat.
I finished the WF DVDs over the weekend. Awww. The shot of Caroline Tim talked about... yeah.
Are your copies of animated Tick decent, Hec? That is, do I have a decent shot at getting watchable stuff from e-bay? I mean, I know it's a crap shoot, but that's something I'd risk it for.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Jen, the copies are decent. I think everybody's pulling from the same source pool anyway, and once it's digitized there's not much degradation. Most are at the level of a second generation video dub. Completely watchable.

As with most movie opinions, Frank and I are in agreement.

Ah, I discovered one big area here of disagreement - I adore LAST TANGO, and admire a lot of the Cassavettes, although I prefer his more genre oriented movies, like GLORIA and CHINESE BOOKIE (and MIKEY AND NICKY which is Elaine May channelling Cassavettes for all she's worth), to his suburban/domestic dramas.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Yeah, I've been meaning to watch Chinese Bookie. I did like Gloria a lot. Enough to understand what Mark Eitzel was singing about when he sang "The thing that holds the world together / is the wind in Gena Rowlands hair."
I had a copy of Too Late Blues that I loaned to Scrappy (and never saw again....tap tap tap). He sort of disavowed it, but it's still his second movie. And it's got Bobby Darin, Connie Stevens, Seymour Cassell and a cameo by Slim Gaillard.

I will admit I love Cassavettes as an actor more than a director. And his really love his more disreputable films at that: ROSEMARY'S BABY (a classic, I know, but still), THE DIRTY DOZEN, THE FURY.
