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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Heh. It was sort of entertaining, but not enough to make me want to watch it again. Most of my friends adore it. I am a little mystified.

I feel the same way.

Lebowski is almost famously a "grower." You'll be channel flipping and it comes up on cable and you hang around for a few scenes and you start giggling. Except, it doesn't matter what scene you enter on. Definitely gets better on re-view.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor
Hec is correct as all hell. First time by buddy showed me Lebowski, I said, "Why did you make me watch that?" By the second viewing I got it and have been as big a fan as one can be.
Does the spoileriffic cover art for Hudsucker piss anyone else off? First time I saw it was a rental copy and I hadn't seen the art, which gives away the amusing little revelation about halfway through. "You know... for kids!"

My wife always says that she hates Lebowski, too, but sits spellbound and laughs like hell whenever we watch any moment of it. It's one of my favorite movies, and ties with Miller's Crossing for title of My Favorite Coen Brothers Movie.

We're both fond of the dubbed for TV version, too, which repeatedly features the great line: "This is what it's like to meet a stranger in the Alps!"

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
"But the rug tied the room together!"
It does grow on you. The first time I saw it, I thought it was reasonably funny; the second time I found myself giggling helplessly. Now, I make sure I'm never without the ingredients for a White Russian.

Best use of Gabriel Byrne ever.
I'm sorry, the correct answer is: Stigmata.
Or maybe the ex-Catholic in me still has a thing for hot priests.
