What, is this the equivalent of freezing your lobster so it doesn't suffer before you boil it?
Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

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.

Eeeeks! And, funny!
I was forced to watch the Exorcist II last year. Slept through most of it, which is really the only way it makes any sense. Giant locusts? Kai Wynn? Oy.

We just stroke them on the head.

I'm not stroking my gin. Spilling it all over the counter, maybe, but not stroking it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I stroke my tequila and fondle my rum. I like the intimacy.

I occasionally lick my brandy off my fingers, but that's because I spill it while walking from the pantry to my chair. (On the first glass, too. How humiliating.)

I love the New York Times' film reviewers. From today, on Closer:
"The only one who succeeds is Mr. Owen, whose volcanic charisma is hedged - and to some extent subverted - by a flash of rugged wit. Faced with such a rival, Mr. Law wisely declines to defend the "Sexiest Man Alive" title recently conferred on him by the discerning folks at People magazine. Instead, he dismantles the smooth, ingratiating persona that has brought him to the brink of being a movie star and in the process reclaims his legitimacy as a nimble and clever actor."
hee.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I cannot WAIT to see this movie!
