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.

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.

Actually, IRT whitefont: Earlier we see the buildings have energy shields on them that protects them from the lava. There's a shot pre-fight where we see lava dripping onto the roof of a building causing a shield to spark. When Obi-Wan and Anakin are fighting in the control room, they knock out the controls for the shield generator.

Up with the sun

Ford famously improv-ed the riposte "I know" to Leia's declaration of love.

I've heard that she was so stoned she kept messing up the scene, and "I know" came out of his irritation at that fact.

Though I think I like the scene better if that isn't true.

Hey. New board.

So wishing I could've seen a more usual SLJ..."When you wanna lightsaber every motherfucker in the room...you really shouldn't. This force thing is all spiritual and shit."

I love this line.

I also like Natalie Portman, generally. I think she should meet me for dinner somewhere, and we can discuss how bad the Star Wars movies are over filet mignon and a nice cabernet.

I'm sorry, but you dropped way down on her dinner companion list because you're still crying about her haircut.

Hey. New board.

So I dropped from, what, 27 millionth to 28 millionth?

Y'all are easy, men. Not for me, mind you. To me you are like dialogue or character for Lucas. But you're easy about boring little Natalie Portman. But, thanks.

Way, way lower. They ran out of numbers and had to express it with an abstract symbol.

But you're easy about boring little Natalie Portman.

She's not boring. She's very interesting to look upon.

Hey. New board.

Oh yes, my respect for Portman is almost entirely physical. But I do like the fact that she insisted on going to college and also was an active, vocal supporter of the Kerry campaign. Plus, she actually sounds fairly interesting in a way I would never really want to date in her interviews.

Of course, she turned down the role of Lolita (and panned the story as disgusting, which is true but doesn't make it any less great) after accepting the role of Matilda in Léon, which annoys me a bit, but I suppose twelve-year-olds don't necessarily have the best judgment about what qualifies as scary morally and what doesn't.

Keira Knightley is hotter. But I think I'd rather meet NP. And I'd rather meet Alyson Hannigan than either of them, and she's both married and too old for me.

I tend to agree.

Plus, she's got a high credit limit on account of Leon. Sure, it's close to maxed out, but still...

So? Can she do anything else? No, never mind, don't answer that...forgot who I was talking with. But I guess I'm glad she votes blue and stuff, and I'm not denying the pretty...it just sort of leaves me flat, NSM in "Beautiful Girls" when I was like "She's twelve? Glad twelve didn't look like that when I was or I would killed myself."
