I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

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.

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.

Which actually brings up another category of movie: good movies you've seen umpteen times that you have to watch if you come across them while surfing.

The Princess Bride, Grosse Point Blank, the original Star Wars trilogy, The Shawshank Redemption, a few others that I can't think of now but will undoubtably grab me next time I'm flipping channels.

I can't talk about this film without mentioning that it contains one of my favorite matchs cut of all time, second only to 2001's "CHECK OUT MANKIND'S AWESOME TOOLS!" moment.

My favorite match cut was in the Gary Oldman version of Dracula, when someone's head was lopped off, and the match cut went to Anthony Hopkins carving a roast at the dinner table.

I'll go you one better -- I *own* the freaking movie on DVD, and yet every time I stumble across Bring It On, I watch it.

Also Good Will Hunting.

The funny thing is, I've had to say so very little in this discussion because y'all have beat me to just about every movie I could mention.

If I only had a brain...
