Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video  

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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Pbbbbt!

Although I think Rizzo and Kenickie are headed for big trouble.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I love The Fifth Element. The thing is, there's a ton of stuff in it that would irritate the hell out of me normally, but taken together it all works.

when was the last time you played a random game of volleyball? Who does that, like, ever, (outside of college)?

Pretty much any time I get together with my meatspace friends.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Funny, I've always hated the ending of Grease, but never said anything to anyone but my sister cause I thought I was reading too much into it. Also, WTF flying car??

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

ita has the right of it. I always hoped for a nice DUI/assault police arrest for Danny and maybe an overdose for ONJ. So, yes, a happy ending.

I just wish we could swap the ending with THELMA & LOUISE.

Accidental but absolutely PERFECT X-post the with empress. Bwah!

If I only had a brain...

the stage production, in which Frenchy has a pregnancy scare.

So there are two?

No, I just have no brain.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

All Rizzo and Kenickie had in common were hormones.

Ann, that's a ferret.

But she didn't just put on a pair of pants, not hardly.

The cigarette and hair explosion are other signs. "Tell me about it...stud" is just window dressing, by that point.

Although I think Rizzo and Kenickie are headed for big trouble.

I can see them going either way. I can also see them settling down and becoming the strictest parents on the block ("I know that trick. I used that trick. You aren't going to get away with it like I did.")

Shut it. It's also about social climbing = great.

And Nazi sympathizers. Don't forget the Nazi sympathizers.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

And Nazi sympathizers. Don't forget the Nazi sympathizers.

Does it count as a message if it's completely glossed over?
