Speaking of Howl's Moving Castle, you can download a preview here: [link]
It's in Japanese (duh) with no subtitles, but what I can see of the animation looks gorgeous.
Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

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.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.
I saw a fan-sub about a week ago. It was wonderful. The original Japanese voices were wonderful. Why are we so allergic to subtitles?

Ok. Guess it's 'cause I'm no longer aware I'm reading the subs.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
It's a trick that comes easier to some people than others -- it does help to be a speed reader. But there's also the factor of getting used to it.

What's that list of 30 refer to, exactly? I've seen all but 3 -- Polar Express, Being Julia, and The Village.
All the big US releases that have been nominated for an Oscar of some sort. I left off the foreign films and the shorts, and that's it. I think. I was trying to figure out which Oscar-nominated movies I'd seen, that it would be very easy to go see-- seeing a foreign film or a short requires some work. And I came up with that list, from the master list, with all the nominees for best picture, acting, writing, art design, sound, makeup, music, etc.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
All the big US releases that have been nominated for an Oscar of some sort.
Ah, gotcha. I figured it was something like that, just wasn't sure where it came from.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Woot! TiVo nabbed The Black Swan off AMC. A rare full-color swashbuckler from the golden age, and big budget too. Tyrone Power unshaven and bitter (and also shirtless and on the rack). Maureen O'Hara. It's a gorgeous production with some fine looking ships as well.
Fay and Betsy should come over to my house and watch it with me.

If I only had a brain...
I should go kick my TiVo if it missed that. Dayamn.

Has anyone here seen Happy Together? I watched it tonight and it seemed Buffista-y. It had one gay love scene, two beautiful/sad love stories, and three people stuck in a foreign country (a la Lost in Translation, but better). Plus, it had what I think may be Tony Leung's best performance (which is saying something). There were some scenes in it which I know will stay with me a long time.
