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 think Clive's hotness might have been helped just a smidge by comparison to Jude Law at the puffiest and least charming he's ever been.

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

You know, the squash court could still come in useful. Those of us interested in viewing from a remove will be suited by the spectator stands, but you won't be able to get within boxer-groping reach if you don't get yourselves away from the screaming fangirls.

I love how she glides backwards and the door shuts by itself.

I can't even.

ita! I saw the novelization of the Elektra movie today in Indigo and from the cover blurb, she's totally an assassin! Now, that's probably edited out of the movie (and for that matter, the "book"), but still.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I went to Catholic school for 12 years, and let me tell you -- I'd be walking down a hall with no doors and no windows, and a nun would just *appear*. Poof. Nun. It was unnerving.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Some nuns study at Hogwarts.

move out and draw fire

As long as they sport mullets, I think Mann will be ok.

Well, the Spartans did make a point of having their hair done before major battles...

Dunno, I kind of like the idea of Thermopylae with a synth-pop 80s soundtrack. This is why I was asking about Baz Luhrmann's "Alexander" I think - I'm picturing some sort of Ziegfield Follies version. (Because I'm sick like that).

Great, another reason for the religious right to ban the books. Satanistic AND Papist!
