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.

The former was probably a lot funnier/more significant when it was made than it is now;
Now you're just talking crazy talk.
and the latter I got through half and asked, "What is the point?" and turned it off.
That one's even funnier than Strangelove!
My heart is made of stone, I tell you.
No magic.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
A Clockwork Orange is the only movie I've ever rented, turned off about 15 minutes in, and returned within the hour. I was too disgusted to continue.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
The only Kubrick I like is Dr. Strangelove, and it's mostly because I'm fascinated, horrified, and sickly certain that this is how the world works. As it turns out, I was right.
The rest of his that I've seen? Meh. Especially A Clockwork Orange. I just didn't really need to see any of what he had to say.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
This is where I express my shock and horror at the utter absence of Barry Lyndon in this conversation, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Chrisitan Bale may have joined the Teamsters' Union.
It's a signal that he's in an illicit relationship with Orlando.

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

But aren't the first fifteen minutes just Malcolm MacDowell staring into the camera without blinking?

Unless I dismember, he doesn't stop blinking until a ways in. I think he hits up a moloko bar, and maybe indulges in some GBH.
