Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned  

A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Absolutely. Also, there should be a drinking game.

I'm trying to think of perfect movies for a double feature with it, but I keep defaulting to Army of Darkness.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Have you guys been to the website for the movie yet? A more ponderous, annoying thing I have not seen in a long time. Blech.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I have this sinking feeling I'm going to think the twist is ultraclever and brilliant or something, and you all will look down on me forever and ever.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm denying myself the spoilers, and it's slowly killing me. Arghh. How can I last until next Friday? Is it worse than Signs??

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

Is it worse than Signs??

Oh you poor innocent child. It makes Signs look like The Seventh Seal.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Wahh! I know I'd want to see it because of my weakness for creepification and Joaquin Phoenix, but not reading the spoilers is killing me.

It makes Signs look like The Seventh Seal.

Wow, really? Well, as long as it's not "It was all a dream"...

Whew. Thanks, Jim. That actually makes it easier, because I don't need spoilers for slapstick.

hip deep in pie

Oh you poor innocent child. It makes Signs look like The Seventh Seal.

I now have Rice Krispie square in my nose.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I don't even know what the twist in "Signs" was, because my Mel Gibson hatred pre-dates the Jesus movie. What was it in "Signs"?

And the reviews of CATWOMAN are about what you'd expect.

From the NYT review:

She overacts Patience's flaky timidity and then, to compensate, overdoes catwoman's suave self-confidence, swinging her hips and pushing out her lips as if she were trying to attract the amorous attentions of Pepe le Pew.
