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.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Probably hopelessly late, but it took a while to put this together:

Born in 1962 (i.e., same year as me), with substantial IMDB credits both before and after 1982 (i.e., the 20YO mark):

Jennifer Jason Leigh (probably pushing it -- though she appears to have worked fairly steadily since 1978, 1982's Fast Times at Ridgemont High was probably the role that made her a star)
Adam Baldwin (second lead in 1980's My Bodyguard
Tom Cruise (2 movies in 1981, including a 5th listed credit)
Kristy MacNichol
Wendy Jo Sperber
Melissa Sue Anderson
Jodie Foster

Of names I recognized....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My guess is that girls are forced ripe -- so Leonardo was looking boyish at an age where the chicks were what women in their 40s are supposed to look like.

If Hillary Duff looks like that for the rest of her career, she's golden. She's gone through all the changes she's allowed to.

Eerily Frankie Muniz doesn't look like he's going to change either. But it might be nice if he does.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Don't call it a comeback. He been here for years.

If you think you can outrhyme me, yeah boy I bet
Cause I ain't met a motherfucker who can do that yet
Trendsetter I'm better my rhymes are good
I got a gourmet plate that says I wish you would

Ann, that's a ferret.

And after seeing the xposts --

OK, I'll withdraw everyone except MacNichol and Foster. And maybe Sperber, who isn't as big a name.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Because no one but me cares when Frankie Muniz turns legal.

In a somewhat related note, Wil Wheaton's book is now available.
