I knew it, and I haven't exactly been following his career.
Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

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.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Isn't that common knowledge? That Danny Tanner is a sick, sick comic?
I thought it was.

Thrive to spite them
Unsurprisngly Stealth is a bomb. I goofed off and read reviews (I wanted to see who hated it more) and the Boston Globe's review is my favorite so far.
It starts off with: ''Stealth" is a pretty fair military-hardware action movie until you start thinking about it -- at which point it turns incredibly sour in your mouth. I can therefore recommend it to any and all audiences lacking higher brain functions. Sea cucumbers, perhaps. Ones waving American flags.
and closes with: Am I spoiling the party? Harshing the high-flying flyboy buzz? Tough. For a movie to pretend, in the face of the deaths of tens of thousands of Iraqi men, women, and children directly or indirectly caused by our presence there, that we can wage war without anyone really getting hurt isn't naive, or wishful thinking, or a jim-dandy way to spend a Saturday night at the movies. It's an obscenity.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Isn't that common knowledge? That Danny Tanner is a sick, sick comic?
I don't think so, at all. Remember -- not that many people pay attention to standup offscreen, and he's much more famous for TV than anything else. Hell, I'd be surprised if most people knew he did any kind of standup.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
Isn't that common knowledge? That Danny Tanner is a sick, sick comic?
I saw him on Comic Relief many, many years ago, when he stuck a video camera down his pants and said something like, "Sorry, I shouldn't have done that. Because I'm huge. No, sorry, I shouldn't have said that. I want YOU to say it. I'll pay you to say it."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Today is William Powell's birthday, and they are showing his movies all day long on TCM. Sophisticated, charming, sexy, I loves me some Powell!
ETA: I can't wait to see The Aristocrats!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Every time I see the movie title The Aristocrats, I have to remind myself it's not The Aristocats.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Bob Saget is practically the bluest guy in the film, if not in comedy. Isn't that common knowledge? That Danny Tanner is a sick, sick comic?
I'm so backwards, I read this and all the subsequent posts scratching my head and thinking, Okay, I already knew about Saget, but who's this Danny Tanner guy?

Up with the sun
"Sorry, I shouldn't have done that. Because I'm huge. No, sorry, I shouldn't have said that. I want YOU to say it. I'll pay you to say it."
Whoa, Danny Tanner made me laugh.
I had heard Bob Saget worked blue, but I was never sure how much of that was more in comparision to his TV persona than in comarison to other comics.
Also, I've read a few tellings of The Aristocrats joke, and it just gets monotonous. But the South Park clip that's floating around online is funny, and I'm told the movie is as well.
