I liked my "Philosophy of Humor" class, in which we read Peanuts, Doonesbury, and Bloom County (and I did my paper comparing Chinese and Japanese comic strips, with a sidetrip into manga), and watched The Gold Rush, The General and Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Add to that Fr. Naus's first-day declaration that he didn't care if you fell asleep in class, just don't make it too obvious by bringing in a pillow or stretching out on the floor. Not that I ever fell asleep during that class--too much fun!

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.
My post got eaten up. And now I have to work and shit, Damn.

I would love to take this class.
OK, here's my Dead Man thing: I really thought the bounty hunter was going to die of smallpox, since they emphasized the smallpox blankets at the trading post, and he grabs one and wears it. And I think I would've liked that resolution better than him and Nobody shooting each other and falling down like kids playing "Bang! I got you!"
I can't find the article online yet (it probably won't be up until tomorrow), but King Kong will premiere in NYC on December 5th on 38 screens at "a pair of 42nd Street theaters" (probably the E-Walk and AMC 25). From the sound of it, the premiere party is going to be outside in Times Square (I have no idea how they're going to manage that) with a "special moment" at the Empire State Building.
Want movie now.
(Will ignore for the moment the security nightmare that a 38-screen premiere is guaranteed to be.)

I have no idea how they're going to get a giant ape on top of the Empire State Building.

A barbeque?

And the (Homeland) security nightmare that a "special moment" at the Empire State Bldg. is guaranteed to be.
This may be a stupid question. How visible is the Empire State Building from Times Square?

They've done a giant inflatable ape before.

Pretty much not. The other buildings tend to get in the way.
