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.

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

Recent Cartoon Funny: Venture Brothers - pretty much anything with The Monarch and Dr. Girlfriend; Sealab "I'm a sexy little sea otter" - stands out among many others; Manger Babies on King of the Hill; The Midnight Bomber What Bombs At Midnight - "I've got a gimmick, baby! High explosives!"; also I almost choked in the scene where The Tick was hallucinating and Speak, the moist furry avenger, speaking in a low, cultivated British voice simply said, "I love you."; Timmer on South Park (South Park has odd moments of sweetness); Robot Chicken - Headless Ponch.

I need Ple to come by with Newsradio selections and Jon to do likewise with The Simpsons.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

The funniest thing I've seen on TV lately was a snippet from some show Pete always watches about videogames: it was a mock commercial about the effectiveness of World of Warcraft as birth control. "Your boyfriend will never want sex again! Side effects may include rapid weight gain, mental confusion, and repeated use of the word 'goblin'".

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Sigh. I suppose I really need to borrow that DVD, don't I?

Not even when you saw who was driving the Mystery Machine?

Nope. Nor the dead hooker in Ben Affleck's trailer. Like I said, it was the avalanche factor. All these little things adding up to one exceedingly hoarse me.

Always Anti-fascist!

Friends "We were on a break!" Isabella Rosselini telling Ross he wasn't on her list, and it was laminated Anything about "Smelly Cat"

I look more rad than Lutheranism

"We were on a break!"

The date where Ross wore the leather pants.

Oh! And one of the early episodes, where Chandler goes to Joey's tailor, who gets too up-close-and-personal with Chandler's naughty bits while taking his measurements for a suit. Chandler tells Joey, Joey insists that that's how tailors do it, and asks Ross to back him up, and Ross says "Yes, yes it is....IN PRISON!"

Yes. Black comedy and Christian Bale naked! What's not to like?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Two of my favorite NewsRadio sequences can be summed up with the words "Rocket Fuel Malt Liquor! DAMN!" and "Super Karate Monkey Death Car."

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

Steve Martin escaping from the sniper in The Jerk

"Somebody hates these cans!" The Jerk might be one of my favorite movies ever.

Note to self: rent The Office DVDs.

Oh, and whenever I forget that Friends was actually kind of funny at times, I just need to remember that gum would be perfection.
