Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

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 look more rad than Lutheranism

The Truth About Cats And Dogs is brilliant!

Oh, HELL yeah.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'm not sure anything starring Jeanine Garofalo can be characterized as not very good.

I'm now depressed. I just found out that the upcoming Don Roos movie Happy Endings stars Tom Arnold as well as Laura Dern, Jesse Bradford, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Lisa Kudrow, and Bobby Cannavale. Which means I still have to see it, but I'm going want to claw my eyes out in parts.

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

Oh! Another movie I love that really isn't all that great, but I love it, is Last of the Mohicans. "I will find you!" Also, did anyone else notice that the little sister was ugly for pretty much the entire movie, until the second right before she jumped? And then she was suddenly gorgeous? It's the weirdest phenomenon. That, and the hypnotic violin song thing they play during the scene leading up to the love scene are what make me love this movie.

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

I mean, except for the odd idea that Uma Thurman is pretty, much less prettier than Janeane, but that's not fatal.

Uma Thurman is pretty.

Uma Thurman is pretty.

Not really. But she is striking.

Okay! Off to see a movie. Later, gators.

Uma Thurman is pretty.

She looks exactly like her brother if he were wearing a training bra.

hip deep in pie

I think I may have walked out of What about Bob and I've never been able to sit through all of Groundhog Day

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

Uma Thurman is pretty.

Is not.

I've never been able to sit through all of Groundhog Day

Well, you do get the hang of the plot after a while.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Sigh. Groundhog Day. t pets the DVD

The bit that just kills me is the multiple suicide sequence in the middle. Especially that slo-mo swan dive off a church. It made me cry and cry the first time around. Still sniffles when I get to that, after umpteenth viewing. Oh, and the whole card-throwing-from-bed scene. ::sniff::

5 Fave Bill Murray performances? Groundhog Day, Lost in Translation, Rushmore, Kingpin, Ghostbusters.

I gotta add Roxanne to the list of movies I always stop and see. Actually, I've a major softness for any version of Cyrano.
