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'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

"So I just stand there?"

"No! You do an ecclectic celebration of dance!"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Tickybox!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Keep it all inside.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The NY Times reviewer could have stopped his review after the second sentence:

The reasons to avoid "House of D," David Duchovny's earnest, unwatchable coming-of-age drama, can best be summarized in a simple declarative sentence. Robin Williams plays a retarded janitor.

Did he even need the first sentence?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Oh my God. I'm afraid to go to the movies for fear I'll be seated in a theater next to one where that's playing.

Up with the sun

Wow. I'm trying to imagine a sentence that would make me cower in fear more.

Maybe "Robin Williams plays a retarded janitor who falls in love with a frazzled career woman played by Meg Ryan."

Ann, that's a ferret.

Maybe "Robin Williams plays a retarded janitor who falls in love with a frazzled career woman played by Meg Ryan."

"..., who is already engaged to Mel Gibson."

You just know he's going to bring spiritual awakening to everyone around him. Maybe it would be worse if he did it in blackface.
