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.

Outrageous! Not to mention Wacky! Zany! Madcap!
Also, there are lots of baby-poop jokes.
Because we haven't seen one of THOSE before. Novelty gold!
Upon seeing the preview for Pacifier, my not-boyfriend said Diesel was following Schwartzenegger's example of mixing bad broad comedy with action movies to give him a more cuddly image.
I've read interviews with Diesel. He sounds intelligent. And yet, this.
The only other consumptive heroine I can think of was the girl in Heavenly Creatures. Totally not the same thing.
