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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I saw Green Street Hooligans today, which would have been much better without the random-ass voiceover. It was still pretty good. The ending is a little weird -- the "lesson" Elijah Wood learns doesn't make a whole lot of sense -- but it's an enjoyable two hours. (Especially if you like that whole gritty handheld London style of filmmaking, which I do.)

Ann, that's a ferret.
This may shock people, but I saw both Police Academy and Mystery Men for the first time yesterday. My reactions to both were similar -- interesting concepts, should have done more with them. (Though in fairness to MM, it was on basic cable, and no doubt quite a bit was cut out.)
(ETA, a couple hours later): Just looked up MM on IMDb. Yes, a lot was cut out. As in, a 2-hour movie was cut to fit a 2-hour commercial-filled timeslot.

NYT article: Apparently some conservatives have embraced March of the Penguins as a film espousing their values about monogamy and intelligent design (WTF?) [link]

move out and draw fire
Oddly, the Washington Post just ran a piece by George Will using March of the Penguins to attack Intelligent Design as being an obviously stupid idea.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Penguins - all things to all people.
The penguin is a blank canvas on which we write our world views.
OK, in all seriousness, don't conservatives know about the gay penguins?

Some do, as I heard rumblings that Wendell and Cass should be separated to prevent their unnatural coupling.

There's been similar rumblings about the lesbian swans (Romeo and Juliet) in the Public Garden here. Though that's been as much about "let's bring in a male so we get some baby swans" as anything.
It would amuse me highly if a swan menage a trois was the result. It would amuse me even more if such an attempt ended with male swan being run out of the park by Romeo and/or Juliet.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

The Logo Channel has a very funny animated bit about the gay penguins as one of their promos.
