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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I thought the Pengiun and Catwoman were... well.. OK, maybe not scary, but completely uncompromising. Which is as good as scary in my book.

ITA. Not that I scared of Catwoman, but hey, if I met her in a dark alley, I'd make sure I had some catnip. And Penguin, freaked my shit out. Loved Danny DeVito.

I need to see this again. And again. And again.

ita, busy next weekend???

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

I never watched Dawson's Creek. My introduction to Katie Holmes was in Go!, which may dispose me more kindly to her.

For me, Katie Holmes character validated itself with the scene in the car, after Chill has been killed and Bruce shows her his gun. She slaps him and it's so right. A male DA in that scene just wouldn't have worked.

Also, just because I want to flaunt esoteric knowledge -- the handgun that Bruce took to the courthouse to kill Joe Chill with was a Charter Arms Bulldog .44 Special, a revolver that was developed especially for Air Marshall program, and is notable for only holding five rounds in its cylinder, instead of the usual six in most other revolvers.

Yes. On guns, of all things.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Is that...relevant in any way, or is it just trivia?

Careful, P-C, you may derail Seany in one of his headlong geek charges.

Oh, and to keep a sense of continuity with the last few days of posts - Yay Batman.

Well, if you're being hunted by a guy who's carrying a Charter Arms Bulldog .44 special, and he's got you pinned down, but he's fired five shots at you, I guess it would suddenly be some pretty relevant information.

It's all situational, really.
