Maybe he was one of the guys who came to arrest Balian. But yeah, I love looking at him, and didn't even notice.
Simon: The decision saved your life. Zoe: Won't happen again, sir. Mal: Good. And thanks. I'm grateful. Zoe: It was my pleasure, sir.

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.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda
That is the right guy, ita. I agree with sumi, he was interesting. I had this feeling the second time around that there were supposed to be other stories, and they just got cut for time. Which is a feeling I get with a lot of recent Big Epics. Apparently all epics now have to be about the giant battles, rather than the people. And Brad Pitt's thighs. (No, I'm not bitter that Troy sucked, why do you ask?)

Also, Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy are in final negotiations to star in "Bathory" -- a movie about Elizabeth Bathory.
So, basically it's the sequel to BEYOND SUNSET then?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
They should call it Just After Tea-time

I nominate BEYOND BLOODBATH.

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.
I don't hate Phantom Menance or Attack of the Clones. But cool lightsaber fights allow me to forgive a lot. Which is the only thing the prequel movies have over the original--much better choreographed fight scenes. That and it gives me a large measure of cruel amusement that Jar Jar is responsible for the destruction of the Republic.
I actually re-watched PM the other day while washing dishes and found that as soon as I was done and could actually sit down and watch the urge to just skip ahead to Obi Wan and Qui-Gon's battle with Darth Maul was too strong to resist.
I saw EPs 1&2 at midnight showings. Episode 3 will probably involve me going to a matinee this weekend, wearing my Han Shot First shirt.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Most reviews say that SW:E3-RotS is much better than PM or AotC. Many reviews say it's better than Return of the Jedi.
I'm really looking forward to it, but I might have to wait until I get back from New Orleans to see it.

I agree with everything they say, except that I thought the pod race in TPM blew. (For people who've been avoiding spoilers -- you freaks -- , this is the least spoilery review I've seen yet.)

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
For people who've been avoiding spoilers -- you freaks --
That's becoming more of a compliment for me than an insult.

I realize this. The problem is after Eps 1&2 I'm much more willing to take convinience and low-cost over fanaticism. I still have a few friends who feel otherwise, but it's no longer worth literally losing sleep over to me.
Now, if there's midnight showings of Serenity in September, sign me up.
