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.

Bats is defintly not a woobie.

Actually, I can't really think of a character I feel that way about.

I just realized that my One True Woobie from comics is Morpheus from The Sandman. I can't tell if this confirms me as crazy, or a cliché. Or possibly both.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Morpheus is such a woobie.

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

It seems to be a distinct female-to-male thing, I don't know. I can't think of female woobies, but that may just be the whole prevalance of women in the fandom thing.

He he he.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Morpheus is such a woobie.

Oh yeah. Totally.

Morpheus is such a woobie.

So I'm not *completely* bonkers for thinking so? Oh good.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Hmmmm. Farscape season 2 Aeryn Sun might qualify as a woobie. She has the hard, violent aspects, with all that past baggage. Kinda tortured, hidden depths, etc.

If you are, you're in good company. I also think Destruction is woobie-esque, as is Delirium. I could be over-woobiefying, though. Or perhaps The Endless lend themselves to woobieness.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Aeryn. Is Not. A Woobie.
