I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

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.

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

Don't discount the Snow Dogs, now.

Laika would take Balto out in a second. If she were alive, and not floating in outer space.

He was also in Boat Trip. He lacks judgment and leadership abilities, and is possibly mentally deficient if he thought that that film would enhance his career.

Laika had Soviet space engineers on her side, as well as zero gravity. She wins!!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Laika would take Balto out in a second.

She would indeed.

If she were alive, and not floating in outer space.

Dammit, Kathy, now I'm sitting here thinking about her sad-faced little doggie corpse floating out there overhead somewhere. I feel all emotionally manipulated and resentful!

The Plague Dogs called in sick, and will be replaced by the Dogs of War.

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

The Plague Dogs called in sick, and will be replaced by the Dogs of War.

The Reservoir Dogs have filed a grievance with the union over this.

By the way, does anybody (even Tarantino) have any fucking idea why it was called that?

Cause criminals are like dogs in a reservoir who happen to be drowning...IN LIES.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Wikipedia says: "The title is a combination of the film Straw Dogs and a corruption of Au revoir, les enfants, a film by Louis Malle."

I still don't get it.
