You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

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 can't even.

Man, would Star Trek: Generations been a different movie or what?

With Hugh Grant or James Spader in tow and Andie as some kind of evil OverLady. Hmm, y'know I think we could probably cook up an improvement over Generations even with Andie.

I think much of the annoyance of her performances would evaporate if she were playing an over-the-top evil space opera character.

I must admit my MacDowell love only goes as far as Clockwork Orange and Tank Girl

You've left out Time After Time! I have serious love for MM as HG Wells.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Time After Time is a terrific movie but don't forget ...If and O Lucky Man and to a lesser extent Brittania Hospital (which was the third in the loose trilogy by Lyndsay Anderson) when talking about Malcolm McDowell goodness.

All that talk about movies that give reasons for not buying a house and no-one mentioned House ?

There was also a small Aussie movie called Emoh Rou which might qualify but I've never had a chance to see it so can't really say for sure.

What was that great movie with John Laroquette and Kirstie Alley? Madhouse I think it was.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Woot!

You misspelled that, Connie. It should be W00t!
