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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I've never seen this Attila thing. I may need to visit Netflix.

Not really.

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

Well, it's 223 in my queue, so we'll see.

It could end up being one of those "Okay, on crack and using the web" selections. I'm The One That I Want just got sent back unopened -- when I reached my limit of Cho, I forgot to go back and prune the list.

Watch it turn up in the next shipment.

What's that mysterious sound? Oh, just 222 movies all shifting to "Long Wait" at once.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

stuff like that Walmart Baby flick.

Don't knock Where the Heart Is. I love it. I think it is awesome.

Can't young girls simply come over destructo-gal without it getting all oedipal?pun absolutely intended

Wait, what? How is a SWF vibe Oedipal? If you're going to talk about complexes, then why not just talk about the Electra complex?

Everything I've seen and heard of the filmed Phantom leads me to believe that it will suck enourmously.

Then it will be absolutely on par with the Broadway production I saw. Actually, no. If it just sucks enormously, it will probably still be better. And it won't cost fifty dollars, so you're already ahead of the game.

Lest I be misunderstood...Atilla is not what one would call good. But, for some quirky reason, I love it. The Scottish brogue, the tousled locks, the bare chest, the bare backed riding, the bare...oh, excuse me, I went mental there for a moment.

Powers Boothe is good. Some of the supporting characters (including a lovely and vicious Alice Krige and the briefest of Tim Curry's) are fun and the cheese is monumental. (Now with more historical content!)

And G-d help me, there is something about Tommy Flannagan that makes me go all squishidy every single time I see him. Must be the scars.

You should have seen the Detroit production I saw with unbelievably awesome Christine. I was really quite something.

Hey, thanks for reminding me of Where the Heart Is.

I heart the 1990 film of the same name with Dabney Coleman, Uma Thurman, Suzi Amis and Crispin Glover. Talk about quirk. With trompe l'oil paintings and found object fashion designing. And thank you Netflix. I haven't seen it in years but it's at the top-o-my queue now.

Ahem, my queue will never reach the strength of ita's, but it has pluck.

Speaking of same.

Given that I loved the first season of 24 until Lou Diamond Phillips bit it , and I liked the second season very much all except for the sacrificial death I saw coming a mile away, and the Blast From the Past homage, is the 3rd season worth renting?
