Too true.

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.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
1. Why did I just watch Rat Race?
2. Why did I laugh?
My gym shows Rat Race in the cardio room all the time, and I disgrace myself by laughing at it WAY more than I should. That's mostly the Seth Green factor, though.

Up with the sun
The Quentin Tarantino "guest directed" scene was instantly recognizable because the acting suddenly came to life, and the visuals were really used instead of the only goal being to make it look like the comics.
How much exacty did he direct? I have heard he directed the Clive Owen segment, but that seems kind of lengthy for a "guest director" credit.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
His was the scene where Clive Owen is talking to the almost-decapitated Benicio del Toro in the car.

The only thing I noticed that was different about that scene was that the lighting was fucked up. It's like they filmed it inside a disco.

I find it intersting that so many buffistas have mentioned that the Marv segment was the weakest, because that was my favorite part of the movie (though not necessarily most enjoyable).
I thought the Marv segment was the strongest of the three. Cared nothing for Bruce as Hartigan and thought that segment was the worst one. Clive Owen was too pretty for me, but his segment was the most enjoyable. My reactions towards movies is seems to be so often completely opposite of many others.

Hey. New board.
Not this time, Elais. Those are exactly my opinions. Well, except for the word "too" in front of "pretty." Those words in that order have no meaning to me.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I saw The Animation Show today. I went to a theatre that has a row of recliners and sat in one. It was comfy but I almost fell asleep.
Anyway, the movie was good.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
However, cows remain funny.
Cows are comedy gold. We're currently enjoying the ads for the Tiananmen Cow staring down the bulldozer that's clearing space for a new burger joint. "Eat More Chikkin" - it's very Far Side really. I love how Far Side animals can write, but their spelling is atrocious.
BIG HEAT, Hec. WHITE HEAT is "Top of the world, MA!!!!"
I think it is well established by now that I totally and completely suck, and am way too lazy to find the proper reference for the increasingly unglued associations in my head. From now on, whenever I refer to something like Othello, you should probably assume I'm talking about Three's Company instead. I'm that unreliable.

Ann, that's a ferret.
"Eat More Chikkin" - it's very Far Side really
Chik-Fil-A and San Francisco. Two things that I never thought would go together.
And, getting back to topic, It's Love I'm After held up all the way to the end.
