I stopped seeing Michael Bay movies after I realized I am not allowed to kill him.
You can't drop a sentence like that without letting us know how long you didn't know murder was illegal!
Sunnydale's got too many demons and not enough retail outlets.

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.

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

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I liked it in a pretty peeps, pretty explosions sort of way. It's ridiculous and over the top and stupid, but has glimmerings of some depth (whatever is left of the original draft of the script, I am guessing) which means there are some very well-written scenes in the midst of all the mindlessness--kinda jarring. One moment I particularly liked: Ewan as Lincoln, a sheltered clone, "What is God?" Steve Buscemi as a Tech wiz, "Well, you know how sometimes you want something really bad, and you dream about it and hope for it and pray for it? Well, God is the one who ignores you."

"It could be the subject matter, the lack of stars," he said.
It could be that the movie-going public has finally woken up to the fact that you're a hack and you suck, Michael.

I am dumb. If you visit my livejournal, you will see that my whole job consists of being yelled at for stupid mistakes.

Heh.
Two simple words in the English language. I forgot.
"I forgot ... armed robbery ... was a crime."

Well, it's a good thing you learnt the truth in time to not kill Mr. Bay. Because that'd get a lot of yelling. The Island not withstanding, it's for the best.
Is Wes Anderson all that without the Big O?
