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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think Anthony Lane was wearing the cranky pants when he wrote that reveiw. (Probably when he saw the movie too.)
I agree with some of what he says, but his thesis seems to be, "Everthing in the Star Wars movies is stupid."
Although I'll have to see if I can incorporate "Break me a fucking give" into everyday conversation....

If I only had a brain...
I think I need a "Break me a fucking give" icon.

Although, wouldn't Yoda be more likely to say, "A fucking break give me"?

From IMDB:
In the distant future Earth is divided into two camps, the barely civilized group and the overly civilized one with mental powers. A plague is attacking the second group after which it's members cease to have any interest in life and become nearly catatonic. When Sean Connery one of the barbarians, crosses over, the tenuous balance in their world is threatened.
Brutals are told that when they die they will go to the vortex, where the Eternals live immortally. Zed, an Exterminator-class brutal who worships the stone head Zardoz, comes upon an old library where a mysterious stranger teaches him how to read. When he finds a copy of L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, he sets out to learn the secret of the god he worships, and disrupts life in the vortex.
C'mon - how could this possibly be bad?
