This character died in Kingdom of Heaven, in the shipwreck, right? And who was he?
I can't believe they're all blending together.
Anya: Are you stupid or something? Giles: Allow me to answer that question with a firing.

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.

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

ita, he must have died on the boat, because you didn't see him after the shipwreck. He was one of Godfrey's boys, the one who was standing just outside the curtain looking somewhat sad when Godfrey died.
I wouldn't have remembered that if I hadn't seen it twice.

Speaking as someone who is 25, (so maybe I don't fit into his demo) he's so full of shit. I have yet to meet ANYONE of ANY age who didn't think the Phantom Menace was horrifically boring and I've met only a few people who felt that the Attack of the Clones was tolerable.

I was 25 two weeks ago when I re-watched Phantom Menace, and there were so many things that I disliked about that movie that, if it was not a Star Wars movie, I would never. watch. it. again.

But that is the right guy, right? Suddenly the vaguely blond are mashing together. I seem to remember another blondish cute guy showing up after that point.

I feel I can speak with authority on this one, as I am 24 for another 4 months. Phantom Menace blew.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Um, help. I need a Nilly. I've searched back in this thread and I think it's in Natter and I'm very askairt of trying to find it in there. I need the link to the comic that the final panel says, "Now Joss Whedon is my master." Anybody? Bueller?

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.
Here you go: [link]

Thank you! It has been sprung on its target audience, and a rueful chuckle has been achieved.

move out and draw fire
We watched the Criterion Collection's cleaned up DVD of The Third Man last night. I had only ever seen the beginning of that film (and I'm embarrassed to admit, that was because I was playing a computer game that based its hook off of The Third Man and I was hoping to get a clue). What a great movie! I miss movies like that sometimes, I really do.
Great digital cleanup on a really chewed master, also.
And I was a huge Star Wars fan as a kid. It was my first fandom, and I went whole hog - I wallpapered my room in magazine images of Star Wars, etc. I'm sure my parents thought I'd be a serial killer just as soon as I could get my hands on a lightsaber. And I can still watch Episodes 4 and 5 and enjoy them, even the recent remakes. But even though I was pretty close to 25 when Phantom Menace came out, I was grotesquelydisappointed. However, the friend I saw it with is now 37, and loved both PM and When Clones Attack. So that skews George's statement too (and hey, he should know not to think in absolutes).
Of course, this friend also kept shushing me during Broken Arrow and rewinding so that he wouldn't miss any of the dialogue. And he thought Armageddon was pretty good.
Huh. I guess Lucas' legacy to me is that I am unwilling to throw myself whole-heartedly into a fandom now, for fear of getting hurt. Only Joss has given me the courage to try again...I think there's a Hallmark card for the Dark Side in here.
