There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

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.

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

I have to give him props though, Ewan's flawless vocal imitation of Alec Guinness is the one shining positive of the trilogy so far.

Ewan has definitely been the one thing I've been able to focus on to at least have the semblence of a good time. However, all the pictures from RotS look like he's been taking beard grooming advice from John Crichton.

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

The best I can say about Ewan in the one trilogy movie I saw was that he hasn't been tarnished in my mind by the association. Unlike, sadly, Samuel L and Liam Neeson.

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

The Star Wars films have given Ewan the money to allow him to show us his dick many, many more times.

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

Also to motorcycle around the world.

If I only had a brain...

Yes, but what if he views it as enough money to be able to hide his assets forever after?

He's on a mission. He won't rest until it's done.

Hah! Obviously you don't know him well enough. He's shown his wedding tackle more than Harvey Keitel, and just a little less than Julian Sands.

"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

He does seem to be rather more enthused about doing so than Keitel. I get the feeling the latter has appeared nude so often because he doesn't mind doing it as part of the job, whereas Ewan seems to actively seek out those sort of roles.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Has anyone heard anything about a movie called The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants? I happened to catch Coming Attractions on E! last night and saw the trailer for it. Looks rather interesting, especially with Bradley Whitford as America Ferrara's dad. I might go see it just for those cast members (loved Ferrara in Real Women Have Curves) alone, but Joan of Arcadia and Gilmore Girls fans will like that Tamblyn and Bleidel are also in it.

Apparently, the source material is a very popular book which I've never heard of (is it chick lit or teen fic?).

YA, Kathy.
