Cacophony. That's pretty. What's it mean?

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.

Except that the ginger Chris Evans is the anti-funny. It would end up being an exercise is endurance. I think Billie Piper wins with her two and whatever years.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Re ita's whitefont, I was expecting it to shatter, but apparently the answer is actually deportation.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I was expecting it to shatter too, except there's no way they'd kill. However, if they haven't killed him, he's alive. And I think deporting supervillians shows a huge lack of foresight.

Too true. I was expecting him to lose a finger and then cave or something. But no. But still they put him in a BOX!!!one! To LATVARIA!! See, it makes sense, really.

The pattern of question they were using for that setup just reminded me of an X-Men low point and begged for the melodramatic answer of "The same thing that happens to anything else..."
Thank god for the young hot Chris Evans.
I bought a Batman Begins ticket, watched those trailers, and then went into F4. Which means -- I got to see the Serenity trailer! Also, Zorro 2 and The Transporter 2. And Sky High twice. Seems like they may have expended all the funny scenes in that one. It's going to be a while before I look at movies like that without asking "So what do you have to offer that Spy Kids and The Incredibles haven't already done really well?"

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That was my exact reaction to the Sky High trailer, ita. I leaned over to Consuela and said, "so it's a live action Incredibles. Yawn."

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Thank god for the young hot Chris Evans.

I bet that Billie Piper's kicking herself for wedding the wrong one. Poor lass.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I leaned over to Consuela and said, "so it's a live action Incredibles. Yawn."
That was kind of my reaction to F4, actually. (Except for the part where the F4 characters predate the Incredibles, but they do have almost the exact same set of powers, and the Incredibles did them better. Also, the Incredibles had a plot.)
