Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness. Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

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.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I'm in the mood to go to the movies tonight--do I go see Ray, Alfie, or The Incredibles?

If I only had a brain...

The Incredibles. Give it up for Pixar.

I'm heading off to see Finding Neverland. Has anyone seen it yet? Good? Bad? Indifferent?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Very good, if you like movies where Johnny Depp looks painfully gorgeous and will make you cry.

Weirdly enough, I do like movies where Johnny Depp looks painfully gorgeous and makes me cry.

Good-oh. I'll bring the tissues then.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

do I go see Ray, Alfie, or The Incredibles?

Of these, I've only seen Incredibles, but it was absolutely amazing, so I strongly recommend it.

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

Best chick flicks of all time, where "chick flicks" seems to be defined more as something containing the phrase "female empowerment." Catwoman is nowhere to be found.

If I only had a brain...

"Notorious," directed by Alfred Hitchcock

Oh, right. Where Cary Grant's contempt for Ingrid Bergman's sex life nearly gets her killed. Rock on, the empowered woman!

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Pretty Woman? Notorious? Argh.

I love Notorious, but I wouldn't consider it a female empowerment movie. And Pretty Woman makes me want to vomit.

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

"From frothy romances to whale-riding adventures, these films show us who we are, where we've been, what we can take, and better yet, what we can dish out," the O editors write of the list culled by Karen Durbin.

That explains Aliens, but I'm not certain how it explains many of the others, really.
