We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

If he didn't waste the majority of it taking potshots at the fans, it actually would be a valid, if very short, review.

Right. Because absolutely the measure of a film or other work of entertainment is how much you like the people who enjoyed it. t shrugs

Art Crawl!!!

I watched the first two hours of Into the West last night. Somehow I had forgotten that Alan Tudyk had a part in this thing. I hope that he re-appears later -- otherwise it's a bit of a waste of his talents.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I was flipping channels and there he was, on a horse. And then he was gone. I moved on.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

sumi, that's all of Alan we will get. His part was drasticaly shortened before filming began.

Hee. The subtle humor of Buffistas never fails.

I'm not sure I'd use the word "gorgeous" to describe those retro posters, although the wanted posters on the source's website are cool.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I think I'd go with "Nifty" for the retro posters.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

I'm sure this or something like it has been posted before, but a while back I found a bitchin' Pinyinary for the Chinese used in Firefly. Interesting to see the exact euphemisms and swears used, and where the actors got their pronunciations wrong (There may be a reason why Book only ever spoke Chinese once--boy, was he off).

The Pinyinary is the website of the same fabulous guy who wrote the essay on Chinese in Firefly in the Finding Serenity collection edited by Jane Espenson.
