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.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I've heard it's a good one (and I love the deep, gravelly voice.)

So, I should rent this tomorrow night?

Hey. New board.

It's on my netflix queue for when I finish the first season of "Popular"

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

If you want to hold on a couple of days, I could just send you my copy, since I'll be upgrading to the special edition DVD next payday.

That would be so nice, JZ! (Color me shocked at you being nice, ok?)

Something to look forward to after I have to go to work AND class on President's Day, dammit.

Of course that means I have to actually get the thing in the mail. Which I firmly mean to do, but I'm full of good intentions that fizzle out on the way to completion. My desk drawer is even now crammed with assorted things I keep meaning to mail out to various Buffistas and there's a half dozen thank-you notes sitting at home waiting patiently for their stamps (and I owe the Buffista gift corps notes, and my aunt, and my dad's friend whom I hadn't laid eyes on in eleven years but who sent us a gigantic crystal punch bowl).

In short, I suck. But I FULLY INTEND to send you Iron Giant, and I think that with this very post I may have successfully guilted myself into guaranteeing I actually do so.

JZ, I do the same thing, so don't fret. I'm going home this weekend to see my parents, and I am also goig to shamelessly rifle my sister's DVD collection (see! I'm all fiscally responsible) and her book collection, so I have movies in my future.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Iron Giant is Brad...oh, what is is name. Brad Bird? The guy who's winning the crapload of awards for The Incredibles. It's a fantastic movie.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Brad Bird was at CalArts about the same time as Tim Burton and John Lasseter (head of Pixar).

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I loved Iron Giant, even though I saw it under less-than-desirable circumstances. I spilled boiling water on my foot. (I know. No one is surprised.) I sat down in front of the television with my foot in cold water and found that the Cartoon Network was showing The Iron Giant all day for reasons that were not clear to me. I watched it several times. It's a very therapeutic movie.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I feel the need to share that the commercial for The Pacifier was just on TV, and yet again I laughed at it.
