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.
When I've paid $12 to see a movie, I don't need to watch advertising.
This. Though I might make an exception for something closely tied to the movie. Say, an ad for the TTT DVD among the previews for ROTK.
Might make an exception.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
an ad for the TTT DVD among the previews for ROTK.
An ad for something that involves watching movies at home instead of in the theatre? It may be a while.

When I've paid $12 to see a movie
Holy--I won't pay more than $7 for a first-run movie. Benefits of being in a backwater, I guess. I don't think I've ever seen a movie I'd be willing to pay that much for.

Thrive to spite them
I hate ads at the theater. I like going to the second run theater because there are fewer ads.
What I really hate are ads on dvds that can't be skipped and have to be fast forwarded through. The AvP dvd had a bunch.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Mr. Inconsiderate Cellphone Man is my secret celebrity boyfriend.
You have such a twisted side. Your perversity is almost Ple-vian.

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
I saw Strictly Ballroom last night. I had been putting it off because I accidentally caught the end of it on TV once, and it looked totally weird. However, watching it from the beginning, I did like it. It was definitely quirky, stylized, slightly clunky, and a little bit dated, but I enjoyed it. Though that is possibly because any time anyone had been talking for more than three minutes, there was suddenly dancing. And I love dancing.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I love that movie.
"That was unexpected!"

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I both love and own that movie, and have been known to dance around singing "Love is In the Air" to myself at random.
