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.
Heh. I've always wanted them to do Flash Gordan gay.
OMG, not again.
Flash! I love you! But we only have fourteen hours to save the Earth!
Bwhahahahaha.
I'm fairly certain that the music won't be better than the 80's version.
Thomash, Alibelle and I are talking about going to see Shaun of the dead tonight. Any chance you are interested?
I am, but I've already seen it. And money's rather tight at the moment so I'll have to pass. I know that you'll LOVE it though.
I have seen Shaun of the Dead! It is funny, clever, touching and incredibly gross. I watched the gross parts through my fingers, with my glasses off, but I loved the rest.
I'm fairly certain that the music won't be better than the 80's version.
Has a movie EVER had a better theme song? Plus, if I recall correctly, the 80s film was campy enough to make The Apple look like a documentary.
Okay, why does everyone keep hyping Shaun of the Dead as a hysterically funny movie, with zombies? It isn't. It isn't a rom-zom-com, as one critic called it, nor is it hysterically funny.
It is, at times, fairly amusing. It is, at other times, kind of boring. It is also sad, and sometimes really disgusting. It is not, at any time, a hysterically funny romantic comedy with zombies.
It's certainly not a movie I'll ever need to see again.
Alibelle is a wonderful, smart, insightful human being...most of the time. I just got back from the movies and have to say that Shaun of the Dead is often very funny, at times hysterically funny and even at moments quite moving.
