Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness. Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

But he could fake it, and then you could post it on your site.

move out and draw fire

I have no opinion on Empire dresses, except that I personally avoid them like the plague.

Not really a movie, but related to Hec's mention of Midnight Movies, the stage production of Rocky Horror is going to be here next month. I really really want to go. [link]

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I am a strong partisan of Frederick March's Jekyl/Hyde.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

The Matt Damon Love Train could be pretty long. Clearly, he must eat the still-beating hearts of babies when we're not looking.

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

But he could fake it, and then you could post it on your site.

I would be very happy about that, and like Aimee, would help out however required.
