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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Bill Murray Top Five

1. Rushmore
2. Groundhog Day
3. Lost in Translation
4. Ghostbusters
5. Stripes

Hmmm, the selection (not the movies) seems kind of pedestrian. But that's what came to mind immediately. Anybody for Quick Change or What About Bob?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Also, I've done that, and just recalling the memory is bringing traumatized tears to my eyes.

Serves you right for the wrongness of your opinion. May it bring you suffering.

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

You know, telling Alibelle she'll get it when she's older is about as respectful as "Oh, you'll get fat when you're thirty, though." (to which I should have replied "Like you? Will I also get bitter and vindictive? Yay!" But I didn't. Still, being in good shape works fine as revenge so far.)
I hate Andie MacDowell. I really enjoy Groundhog Day, but given how Alibelle feels about, say, tamarinds, there's no reasoning with some people.

I was trying to figure this out. And first I was all, she's defending me! Whoot! And then I was all, oh, wait, no. She's making fun of my pickyness again. And then I was like, oh! I get it. It's ita. She's both nice and picking on me simultaneously. It's her art.

I think the movie should be retitled Repetitive Stress Syndrome.

And that all of you meanies get what's coming to you one day. I will let karma enact my revenge upon all your ill-meant wishes.

You know, I actually liked his character best in The Royal Tenenbaums (of all the other characters in the movie, I mean). Pity I didn't like the movie itself.
