Still have not seen either Eternal Sunshine or Sideways. Feh.
That's understandable. Movies hardly ever play where you live.
We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

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 *know*! What's up with that???
Oh, wait...
(I made a tangentially similar comment to my coworkers today. I came back from catching a bit of CNN in the cafeteria at lunch and said "Jeez, I really wish I was back in the Midwest today....
...Oh, wait. That's not what I meant to say at all. I *totally* meant to say I. Love. Los Angeles.")

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Do not minimize the magnetic appeal of snow, especially if it's not too cold.

I do, on occasion, miss snow. If my car were running better, I would drive and go see some.
I also miss real thunderstorms.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
We had THUNDERSNOW!
No, really.

But as I recall you still had time to see (a) Freddy vs. Jason and (b) Blade: Trinity Whatev.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
NYT review of Fat Albert: [link]
One of the truisms of contemporary pop culture is that just when you think it couldn't get any worse, its purveyors any more shameless, you are proved decisively wrong. Based on Bill Cosby's corpulent charmer and his band of brothers, the "Fat Albert" movie opens in theaters just days after the release of the DVD compilations of the original show. DVD's for the program are featured so prominently in the movie - characters repeatedly deliver their lines in front of promotional posters for such discs - and the movie feels so much like an extended-play sitcom, I half expected Mr. Cosby to pop up on-screen to sell me the discs along with a Coke.
Gawd, that review trashes it. Is it Teppy who's gonna see it? Should someone warn her?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I thought it was a "truism of contemporary pop culture" that any movie with Bill Cosby in it has to be a horrible, awful, avoid-at-any-cost disaster.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I just saw the trailer for Sin City--looks great!
It does. Unfortunately that trailer didn't get along with my PC. Here's the one at Quicktime.com. [link]
