Buffy ,'Showtime'
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.
And I'd rather meet Alyson Hannigan than either of them, and she's both married and too old for me.
t person from same crop as AH mutters something about kids getting offa my lawn...
Damn, I know that my comic book store guy and I were just talking about this yesterday, but when the fuck did I get old?
t shakes walker at whippersnappers.
All I expect from actors is the acting and the looking pretty. If one's strong enough, I'll ignore the other.
Hey, I didn't make the half-plus-seven rule.

Gives people complaining about being old who are at least a decade younger than him the stinkeye.

It's not the rule-makers I look askance at, it's the blind rule-followers. AH shows up heartbroken, newly single, and in need of comfort at your doorstep, and you whip out your ... calculator?
Tsk, tsk.
As an actress she strikes me as good at looking pretty in a way that doesn't make me sweat...maybe I haven't seen her best work. I meant like "comic timing" or something, not discovering cures for cancer.
Have you seen The Professional, erika? It's amazing, and she's really good in it. I have no idea if she has any comic timing, but I don't need all actors to be able to do everything (though it's nice if they can and they're cute too).

Me too. It's nice if they're witty and interesting in interviews, but someone basically has to be a vocal supporter of the Ku Klux Klan for me to write them off based on what they do offscreen. Besides, they're actors, so even if they act witty and interesting for a journalist, that's no proof they really are in private life. (I think Reese Witherspoon is one of the few performers to point this out, for which I almost admire her.)
And on NP -- I think Natalie Portman was a tremendously interesting actress at 12 or 14, but her adult performances haven't lived up to The Professional or Beautiful Girls yet.

Feh. Being old is a novel experience for me. I need the practice with my cane-shaking.
People born in 1984 can buy booze in the US. People born in 1987 can buy smokes. How did this HAPPEN?
There's a half-plus-seven rule?
Wait, how old is Timberlake?

Luckily Orlando Bloom squeaks in just under the wire for me.
