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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

So I need to buy Say Anything, then? 'Cause, er, I haven't seen it.

Um.

I've seen Point Break almost as many times as I have Dirty Dancing

Aw, Point Break!

Man, I remember slashing that before I knew that slash existed! Watching it with 2 girl friends and one (gay) boy, and all of us yelling encouragement to the boys while they wrestled in the surf and exchanged long eyefucks. "It's not about the waves, it's about the energy." or something like that.

Man, though, there's some lovely cinematography in that film. The skydiving sequence makes me want to jump out of a plane. In a good way.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

Turns out Kevin Spacey really is the inheritor of Gene Hackman's movie estate. You'll do a double-take at the resemblance. Lex!

I'll take Stuart Townsend any day over Darin McGavin.

Looks? Yes. Acting skill? I'm betting on McGavin. Anybody who can pull off The Old Man in A Christmas Story has my respect forever.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

move out and draw fire

Yes, Fay, you must see Say Anything.

Although, I agree with ita:

I mean, I like Dobler a lot, but I'd leave him for Blank

Broog, Alien Film Critic, on Sin City:

Broog chanced to see Sin City not long ago, and was horrified to discover not a sprawling universe of evil, lust, and murder, but a violent group therapy session in which the angels and the damned alike reveal their emotions not through action but through sub-Chandler monologuing of which the master criminal in The Incredibles would be ashamed.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What went through Fiveson's head as Bay's movie unfolded?

"I was thinking 'Jeez, this looks so much better than my movie. I wish I had the money.' "

Heh. I like this guy.

Seriously, yo. Even when the characters are literally dying, they WON'T SHUT UP!

On the other hand, Nicky Katt's scene was a hoot.
