I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

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.

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

Oh yeah, one of them was Pee-Wee's in the Buffy movie.

Best. Death. EVER.

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

I'm trying to think of a death scene I've laughed harder at.

For me, I think I laughed hardest at the scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark, where Indy shoots the swordsman.

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

There was a death scene in Wonderfalls that cracked me up, and hard.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Don't mind me, I'm just grooving on the Say Anything love.

"How'd you get Diane Court to go out with you?"
"I called her up."
"But how come it worked? I mean, what are you?"
"I'm Lloyd Dobler."

"Hey my brother, can I borrow a copy of your 'Hey Soul Man Classics'?"
"No, my brother, you have to go buy your own."

For me, I think I laughed hardest at the scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark, where Indy shoots the swordsman.

That was a classic. I love that Ford's annoyance was genuine because he was fighting the flu or something like that.

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

If George Lucas tries to change that scene, he will have to die.

Art Crawl!!!

Doesn't Spielburg get some say in Raiders too?

Yeah. He'll probably change Indy's gun to a walkie-talkie.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

So they're going to CG in a laser firing from the guy's sword, and then Indy disables him with feedback from the walkie-talkie?

Now tagless for your comfort.
