As someone who might have been paying attention to this stuff, it's insane how hard he took off with so little source material.
Agreed.
Wasn't he cast on the basis of his sudden popularity?
Lydia: Its removal from Burma is a felony and when triggered it has the power to melt human eyeballs.
Giles: In that case I've severely underpriced it.

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.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
There's a Michael Powell restrospective in Walter Reade Theater in NYC during the month of May. Would someone(s) go see some of the films so that I can vicariously live through them? Pretty please?

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
Am I, like, the only person who didn't know that Jonathon Rhys-Meyers is playing Elvis in a CBS miniseries?

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

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

Well, you did know about Boreanaz in Crow IV, so you're not that out of the loop.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Crow IV?!?! Apparently, I was out of the loop on the existance of III. Which considering II, is probably a good thing. (Though I was aware of the whole DB in a Crow sequel thing.)

Hey, not only is there a sneak peak at the next HP movie during the televised showing of PoA Saturday night -- they are going to show the trailer for The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe during the movie.

I think it's IV. It's some number larger than III, anyway. III had Kirsten Dunst and Eric Mabius.

Huh. I vaguely remember hearing something about that. Was it any better than II? I can't really imagine it being worse. (Coincidentally, I caught the original on cable Sunday. Hadn't seen it in at least 5 years. Still enjoyed it, but wasn't as blown away by it as I had been originally.)

Is ABC going to be showing Prisoner of Azkaban already? That's pretty fast to network TV.
