Teppy, could I borrow your (ETA: Ultraviolet) tapes, after you finally get around to watching them all? Netflix doesn't have it, and I missed my chance to tape it.
Well, you'd better not be thinking what I think you're thinking, because my answer is the same as always — no threesomes unless it's boy-boy-girl. Or Charlize Theron.

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.

Because I'd like to think even Michael Caine would balk at a Sci Fi original movie.
I don't think they scrape lower in the barrel than, say Jaws IV: The Revenge. Though in Caine's case I suspect the underlying idea is that if he's in every movie, some of them are bound to be Oscar contenders.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Mario and Melvin Van Peebles are top notch draws, compared to, say, Richard Grieco and Tangi Miller (sorry, Tangi).
Which is to say, I think Sci Fi has an unparalleled ability to cast people who aren't that well-acquainted with the big screen into movies whose plots aren't well acquainted with narrative.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I think most of the things that Sci-Fi calls "original movies" are straight-to-video stinkers with the expletives bleeped or cut.

Or, if we're lucky, failed two hour pilots.

Absolutely!

Compassionately intolerant
I need help mounting a whine campaign focused on what appears to be Netflix's disinterest in carrying Ultraviolet.
I've asked like 5 times. Tha loosaahs.

Art Crawl!!!
I bought the dvds because they are so slow about purchasing.
I mean, I requested, I bet you requested too beej. In fact, I'm sure more than a few people on this board requested -- but do they CARE?
Apparently, not.

I requested. I requested twice, at least.

How do you talk to Netflix? I haven't found a way to communicate, really. I'd like to let them know that I have slight issues with an estimated shipping of a week to get a DVD, after it took them a week to receive it. I mean, if they have to send me a DVD from another state, they should be able to just tell you that, and let you change your mind. I feel like I'm wasting a lot of time with just shipping issues, for some of these things.
