Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

And, um, Will Smith was good.

Is it worth it for the naked?

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

There is naked?

A friend had Bad Boys 2 on tonight. Never saw the first one, or the first half of this one, but if there's one thing Michael Bay can do, it's film Will Smith to look particularly pretty.

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

Is it worth it for the naked?

He was in an odd pose for a person in the shower. I think the odd pose was so you couldn't see his naughty bits. You could sorta see his butt though.

He goes without his shirt quite a lot.

Thanks P.M.

Bad Boys I & II are pretty much only good for the Will-shirtless.

I saw II specifically because I caught a glimpse of Henry Rollins in the preview.

They should TELL you when that glimpse is all your gonna get for the whole damn movie.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Now I'm morbid, but amused.

I live to please. Especially you.

I don't know if it's rentable, but the gigantic Criterion edition of Brazil has a wonderful commentary by Gilliam. He gets entertainingly ranty.

It's weird how we're so critical of Hollywood blockbusters when they don't make sense but movies like this get a free pass.

There's a difference between movies that reward rewatching because the action is complicated or dense, and movies where rewatching just makes you notice even more appalling nonsense. I suppose it's a matter of whether I feel like the creators knew what was happening and why, instead of having the strong impression that they didn't give a damn.

I have a plan.

I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near Tannhauser gate.

Is this a discussion about classicly good sci fi films?

Cause this quote really throws me into nostalgia mode for 'Soldier'.

Thomash and I are both rather fond of this one - Kurt Russell playing a lead character who has all of three lines... Jason Isaacs... half the nursing staff from ER...
