I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

David, technically it isn't one of my favorite movies, it's one of my favorite bad movies. But, yes, so much goodness in the bad.

re RotS: Am I the only one who thought Palpatine was terrible? If they had had a actual cured ham chewing on the scenery, I thought it would have given a more credible performance.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I was rooting for evil, so I liked his performance.
Also, I was sad that General Grievous wasn't given more to do. He rocked in the animated series.
If General Grievous really existed, he'd make an excellent dog-walker, what with his four arms....

Huh. I thought Palpatine was the best-acted character in the movie.

I was relieved that he wasn't given more to do, because Movie!Grievous was so incredibly lame compared to the Clone Wars version.
And I also thought Palpatine was great. Very nicely smarmy without quite going over the top until he needed to.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I've tried watching Lawrence of Arabia several times, but it's *so* boring I've never even been able to make it halfway.
Have you ever seen it in a theater? LoA is one of those where big screen is the only way to go (see also 2001).

But the lamest of all is Burger King!Grievous. He looks cute.
