I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

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.

Ann, that's a ferret.

(I mean, I was glad to see the trilogy win, but I thought RotK was by far the weakest film of the three.)
Yep, yep, yep!

If I only had a brain...
In a sense it's one really, really, really long movie subdivided for the sake of people's butts.
And don't think my butt isn't grateful.

So I'm good with it.
Oh, I was all kinds of good with it too. But that was one of their many recent cases of awarding Oscars for reasons that go beyond the piece actually receiving the nomination.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think the LotR was a more organic extension of the award to past works, though. It wasn't as unrelated as an actor's good body of work.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

This is very true.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I laughed and laughed at Dodgeball. I'm not proud of it, but I laughed. Although generally not at Stiller.
I should have liked it, since I usually like those Frat Pack movies. But I felt dirty after Dodgeball. It felt soulless and corporate, like Stiller these days.

Oh, I see what you're saying. Yeah, good point.

See, that's how I felt about Old School, but I love the crap out of Dodgeball.

Dodgeball made me laugh so hard it hurt. I regret staying through the end credits, though.
