Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's been a movie already with a Hornby-penned screenplay.

Foreign film.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Foreign film.

Jingoist.

Punishingly Intricate

I saw that at the IMDB.

Colin Firth is completely fucking adorable in it.

I must see it!!!!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

They filmed for a while in Boston mid-season, you know, stuff at Fenway before and after games. I think several players got on the "acting" bandwagon as well, and will show up in the promo stuff. (Bleah!)

Speaking of going from the field to the screen, five of the Sox (Varitek, Wakefield, Mirabelli, Millar, and Damon) all got makeovers for a special ep of QEftSG. [link]

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Well, I would say that soccer is the European/rest-of-world version of sports agony, but I have never even seen a soccer movie and thus could not tell you a thing about how it shows up on film.

(FTR, football fans trump them both, or anyway, baseball fans only turn out when it's sunny and hopefully warm, whereas football fans think nothing of bounding about in body paint and a giant cloth diaper in the depths of a Green Bay January.)

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Only soccer film I've ever seen was the really bad WWII-era Sly Stallone one (Victory, IIRC). Even on a big screen, it was baaaaad.

I saw that in the Globe. New definition of "When worlds collide," or anyway, I don't know if I want to know who on my sports teams has back hair and who doesn't.

Could be worse. Schilling could be talking politics again. Or one of them might want to start a singing career!!

Sometimes, cross-marketing is just a Bad Idea.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

DH loves Victory. He makes me watch it whenever it come son TBS or whatever.

There's some wacky buddhist monk soccer movie out there, but I haven't seen it.
