I think that frost was pretty insulted by being portrayed as something to run away from, in that storm movie.
Don't even let high heels get started on all the turned ankles and helpless horror heroines they've been blamed for.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

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.

Wrody McWrod Wrod. And people were pretty fond/respectful of firemen (in my experience) prior to 9-11. Does anybody even like flight attendants?

I like that they bring me drinks.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Most of the time, I'm not thinking about flight attendants at all. When I do, I respect them as members of a service profession, without any particular like or dislike attached.

I mean, why should there be a rule that you can't portray flight attendants in a non-positive light?
Seriously people. It's. A. Mo. Vie.
It's not like people are oppressing flight attendants. Get the fuck over it.

Does anybody even like flight attendants?
The ones I know personally, yes.
As a profession... well, it's a profession.

Oh, if you thought their demonstrations were bad in Cinci, you should have seen them out here in LA. Two seconds away from riotsville the whole time. It was a little tense.

Always Anti-fascist!
As a cop told Tommy on "Rescue Me" this year as he was trying to wiggle out of a ticket by being all "I'm a fucking hero...twin towers, blah, blah." "9/11 was four years ago, pal. Deal with it." (He is brave, but he was driving like a bat outta hell and deserved the fricking ticket.)
