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.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Hec, TCM is showing Aventurera 5/19 at 11:15 p.m. Unfortunately, TCM's site won't let me link the search results.

Some of that Bow stuff=lies, right? She didn't really do a football team, did she? (My God, the stuff I know...daytime cable used to be my drug, man.)

I think that one's been debunked. Though the CW is that gossip about her love/sex life was a big factor in destroying her career.

That sucks. I'd make it worse. "I don't even *like* football, you guys...now if it was a poetry slam or something..." would quickly become Actress Confesses Poetic Gangbang.

While I don't approve of the cheating on/dumping of spouses that I see in Hollywood, I think it's pretty silly to trash a single actress' career for promiscuity. A big factor of how someone becomes a celebrity is how many people would like to sleep with them—we can hardly blame them for taking us up on the opportunity.

I saw the movie Crash last night. It was great. It was what Magnolia wanted to be. Lots of really, really awesome character stuff, and very satisfying interweaving of plot points. It also has an extraordinarily pretty cast, with Sandra Bullock, Brendan Fraser, Ryan Phillippe, Don Cheadle, Jennifer Esposito, Thandie Newton, Matt Dillon, Terrence Howard, Larenz Tate, and the surprisingly decent Ludacris. I liked it a lot. There was a certain theme that I got a little bit tired of after a bit, but the entire movie was just extremely well done. There were some really intense moments that were just knocked out of the ball park.

I recommend it. It comes out May 6th.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

If DB ever wants to become a bigger celebrity than he is now, Matt and I are willing to help in that regard.

If I only had a brain...

We are talking about the 1920s and 1930s here. Not the world's most sex-positive culture; the Hay Code had just been put into place, there were morals clauses in contracts, and the official expectation was that everybody was straight and you slept only with people you were married to.

And yet, we still got Art Deco. Gotta love it.
