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.

Oooh! I keep driving through the park to get back and forth to Burbank, and I see the banners for that up at the museum. I really want to see that exhibit while it's here.

Oh cool!

Bill Murray's next movie is also Jim Jarmusch's next film: [link]

Hey. New board.

Just saw the Aristocrats.

Hee.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

What? You bastard.

I watched Cartman's rendition of the joke, and my face hurt from laughing. I can't imagine a whole movie's worth of that. It feels like it might lose the shock value and get repetitive after a while. Plus, the punchline isn't funny.

I still can't wait to see it, though.

Hey. New board.

Believe me, the lack of funny punchline is discussed. And every single delivery is quite different.

Saget's version was quite possibly the best-delivered. I really loved Sarah Silverman's take on it, too. Funny, funny stuff.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I just saw Marathon Man. Damn! That's a great little thriller there. Never a dull moment, and it has the balls not to explain what the fuck is going on for over half the movie.

One of my college buddies used to drop "Is it safe?" at the funniest times. I thought a bit about your Blood Simple question up-thread and decided that I need to re-watch it.

I am now adding Once Upon a Time in the West to my Netflix queue.

Awesome. Don't expect it to make logical sense and you'll be fine. Each scene is as iconic as Westerns come.

Thanks. Let me know if you come up with an answer.

Art Crawl!!!

I went to see Sky High yesterday. It was fun. Also the soundtrack was made-up of covers of '80s songs which was also fun. And there was a character of last name, "Grayson" of whom I will say no more.

Also, both Dave Foley AND Bruce Campbell.

Oh, I'd missed that. P-C, faking photos just requires patience, especially with b&w. Take a sheet of cardboard and cut holes in it where you want the wounds to be in the photo. Put it over the photographic paper before you expose it to light. When you develop the paper, there will be black spots on the paper: bullet holes. For the blood, same thing, except you expose a larger area for less time to get grey blobs.

Did you listen to the commentary track? It's the best commentary ever.

No, I didn't, though I read it was faked, which sounds very amusing.
