Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video

Closed Film and TV threads

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.

I think Kidman wins the award for Most Attractive Consumptive. Second only going to Kate Winslet in Finding Neverland.

In other news, I watched Godsend yesterday. Am I the only one who thinks the Creepy Kid/Young Adult trope is getting done to death?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I hate the Creepy Kid trope too much to be able to tell when it is being overused.

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

Kids are some scary fucks, though.

Add power or knowledge to their coveted youth, and they're everyone's nightmare.

Hey. New board.

I love creepy kids. Cuz they're creepy. I'm gonna see Dark Water because I love creepy kids. And Jennifer Connelly. And suffering.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

What about Greta Garbo in Camille? That's one gorjuss consumptive.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

If you want a REALLY creepy kid, try watching the original Bad Seed.

If I only had a brain...

Fulminating TB is well known to bring a mighty dumptruck of beauty to the doorstep.

Now I feel better about my HS insisting I had TB.

How could I have forgotten Garbo? Of course, I haven't actually seen Camille, I just remember that bit from Annie...

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Creepy kids was overdone back in Star Trek. Ever since then, it's just been a repeat of the same old.
