Missy, kerfluffle shoes are so Out for autumn fashions. You best give them to Goodwill.
Home schooling? You know, it's not just for scary religious people anymore.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I hate Autumn fashion. As soon as the Winter brouhaha boots are in stores, I'm all over them. In the meanwhile I have to make do.

On the other hand, my arch-support brogans of whining complement any outfit.

For those with plantar fasciitis of the soul?

I love my sandals of false superiority, and I intend to wear them until it's so cold that my toes can't stand it any more.

Exactly. My soul is all tired and worn-out and fallen.

"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
And zombies really shouldn't be so scary because they're usually dim-witted and slow, but what's so unnerving about them to me is that they're dim-witted and slow.
Well, the zombies of the George Romero mold do seem to fall at the absolute nadir of Masahiro Mori's Uncanny Valley. We seem genetically or sociologically programmed to find them creepier than anything else.
OMG. So dead to me since Dracula. Didn't even remember he was in the movie.
I can't blame him for that one. All my Dracula hate is aimed squarely between Winona Ryder's enormous Manga cartoon character eyes. (Yes, I realize Keanu sucked, but it's not as if that was any huge surprise. And he didn't convince Coppolla that the moodiest horror novel of the late 19th century would be much better if it were a frickin' love story!)

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
My Dracula hatred is for whoever thought a movie was more fun without any subtext. Generally speaking, when a hairy beast shows up in the middle of a Victorian horror tale to have wild sex in the garden with a virginal blond girl, you know that there is no point in seeking any 'deeper meaning'.
I mean, okay, love poetry with the hairy beast, but fucking au naturel??

Nutty, I think you just put your finger on why that movie bothered me, even though so many of my friends liked it. Any dracula movie should have killer subtext, and lots of sexual tension.
Actual on-screen sex is kind of the antithesis of sexual tension and subtext.

Compassionately intolerant
I dunno. The scene where Drac stares at Winona across the street and whispers, "See me." makes me come over all swoony.
