I adored Love Actually. Maybe I need to see it again to clear my mind after the travesty of Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason.
Stop means no. And no means no. So . . . stop.

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.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Loathed and hated Love Actually with a fiery vengeance. Curtis tries to be self-referential but merely manages self-parody. The man needs some fresh ideas, fast.
The only redeeming features were Bill Nighy and Emma Thompson (and I say this as someone who usually loves Hugh Grant and Colin Firth). Actually, most of the actors tried really, really hard but were doomed to fail miserably against the cliches of the script.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I hated certain subplots of Love Actually with a passion, but loved the Emma, Colin, Liam, and Martin Freeman (the stunt doubles) ones a lot.

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

Fiona is me. (Except for the guy-who-plays-Tim-on-The-Office storyline, because he's just so damn cute.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Copied from sumi in Jossverse: teaser poster for Batman Begins.

If I only had a brain...

Or an iliac crest. And I know where my vote lies.
Which is the batbelt middle ground.

I attribute it to too many Batnuts. By which I mean Bat-Doughnuts.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Are we looking at the same poster? Where is the Batfat? I see none.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Where is the Batfat? I see none.
There's a bulge at the waist, which I presume is the utility belt.
