Don't forget about the Addams mansion - from the movie, not the show, of course.

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.
Will you let me live there even though I don't like the music?
Of course. Though you've already expressed liking for some Nick Cave and I'm pretty sure you'd love all the snarky gothy piano ballads mix I made, as they are (a) pretty (b) smart (c) somewhat wicked. All of which I associate with the Betsian aesthetic.

CDBaby - $10, I think. I sent you that mix, didn't I?

No, you did not. I will now sulk at you. Just imagine the pouty lower lip, wide eyes, and tapping of one pointy-toe shoe.

Huh. Well, that was kind of stupid of me. Fortunately, I can just throw it in an envelope with the Guy Maddin Dracula ballet, and the early sixties paperback of Charles Addams cartoons I bought for you the other day.
Because, I'm always mindful of paying proper tribute to your inimitable style and rare beauty.

Yay! Goodies in the mail!

You are such a doll. Especially because you have this uncanny knack for saying these sorts of things when I'm having a meh-ish day.

Yes! I have that uncanny power!
Though it is absolute truth that I have right-clicked innumerable pictures of you, and have them stored in their very own velvet cage folder. Your beauty is pleasing to me, and I look through Jilli pictures the way some people flip through Italian Vogue.
The military recruitment ads that make war look like a video game piss me off; I hope the people they're aimed at can see through them.
Sadly, the whole point of 'em is to wow the yokels they're aimed at as effectively as possible. And I'm reminded more and more of Harry Harrison's Bill, The Galactic Hero, and its molecule thin dress uniforms, double medal sets (the nice ones for the telecast replaced by the pot metal ones when it's over) and it's any old arm will do limb replacement policy--hey, two right arms, all the better for saluting.
