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.
Ah, but if we didn't have the Ewoks we never would have gotten that photo play of one of the Wizard editors being chosen as Galactus' new herald and leading him immediately to Endor.
Peachy Keen? And what is it that they're flinging?
I like jub jub.
t /Saw RotJ when I was 7 and will always be so colored in my opinions
Even Lucas didn't let Ray Park read lines - the voice of Darth Maul was the guy who steals Tim's girlfriend on Spaced.
Jango Fett
Having never seen Phantom Menace or the clone one, I have bastardized Jango Fett into a Star Wars version of Django Reinhardt.
Django Fett -- He's a bounty hunter whose jazz guitar is so hot, it's the coolest! Playing one night only, at the Hot Cantina!
I finished watching Greenfingers and really rather liked it. I'll have to rent it again sometime.
I thought Greenfingers was rather charming, myself.
Rotten tomatoes and metacritic are both trying to convince me that I should see Episode III.
I still intend to stalwartly avoid it, however. I shall stand strong! If nothing else, not getting my money can stand as a protest to the other two.
A recommendation for fans of musicals -- On the Avenue. Dick Powell, Alice Faye. Irving Berlin score that only includes 6 songs (plus one Russian folk song), but those 6 include "I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm," "You're Laughing at Me," and "This Year's Kisses." Fun little plot -- Powell plays the author and star of a Broadway revue (co-starring Faye) that pokes fun at the wealthy Caraway family. Daughter Mimi (played by Madeleine Carroll, who neither sings nor dances in this one) decides to fight back.... Props to Cora Witherspoon as the non-stuffy aunt in the Caraway family.
Excellent light entertainment, loads of fun for fans of '30s musicals.
