Sir? I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

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.

"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
Did they forget that he became a media darling during his Avengers stint while blue and furry? I remember books from the 80s with crowds of starlets chasing him around in the background. Surely that doesn't just evaporate the instant he switches team books?It's different now that Hank's had a "secondary mutation" that makes him look like a large cat/bear creature--elongated cat-feet, one fewer finger on his hands/paws, a cat-like muzzle, cat pupils, etc. That's the reason Trish dumped him--the media accepted blue and furry, but now he's substantially less human-looking.

Ah, didn't realize that the story in question came after the writers thought it would be the Cleverest. Thing. EVAH! to make his mutations mirror his codename rather than vice versa. That makes a lot more sense, and moreover I can see why Trish would be put off without public perception being involved at all.

Yeah, but fetishes, even moreso than non-fetish sexual desire, are completely unreasonable in their origin.

I think it's the what-are-the-odds? factor that's amazing me there. I mean it seems kind of unfair that someone would have their sex drive tuned to such a degree to something that only the most random chance would expose them to in the first place. Getting heated up over S&M or dressing as babies or whatever doesn't seem so odd by comparison, as they're things that I can kind of see a progression leading to.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Movies to be watched in the next week:
Saved! Can't wait. Really looking forward to it.
Star Trek: Nemesis I've seen the others. I guess I am much more geek than previous thought.
John Q Denzel. Must to see and not cut to shit on TBS.
For Queen and Country Another Denzel, made in England. Hadn't even heard of it until trainee at work said she just got the DVD. I think the only movie of his (besides John Q) that I haven't seen.

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

Wow. Have you seen Ricochet ? I remember that having a cool thing at the end.

Hey. New board.
The Internet tells me that The Grudge kinda sucks. I'm not sure if I believe it - I'm a sucker for creepiness.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
In a bizarre twist, tonight both Time Bandits and Flash Gordon showed up on Showtime OnDemand. Maybe this weekend I'll have myself a double feature.
