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.

Delayed comment on Minority Report.

The thing, of the very many things, that bugged me the most was the benevolent-fatherly-boss-figure turns out to be the baddie. I'm so. completely. done. with that plot point. You can see it coming as far away as LA Confidential. Maybe even farther.

Is there some Greek tragedy that we can thank for that tired dodge?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Your link's empty, dude.

Is not.

Huh? Wha? I? Where? Wha?

P-C, I checked my tag but it was closed.

Is this a 'made-ya-look moment?

Oh gosh. Sorry. I scampered away and was not paying attention.

Handsome stompies save me from boldface.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I have an admission to make. And it's one I don't make often, so you might want to bookmark it.

I was wrong.

In CVS after work, I walked past the magazine rack, saw a hottie on the cover of Entertainment, and stopped dead in my tracks, because -- GUH.

The hottie? You may know him as the newest Batman.

That's right. Christian Bale.

But here's the thing: whenever I think of him, I think of him circa American Psycho, in which I think he looks like a pointy-faced weasel. It's just a certain type of look that totally turns me off.

But as the Bat (or at least the cover of Entertainment), he gives me lusty wrong thoughts. It could be the dark hair. If I could find a link to the cover, I'd post it.
