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.

We've seen the heartwarming comedy "Shining." Now see "Titanic" the horror picture. [link]

Oh, and "West Side Story" too. [link]

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

That's more like it, Mr Broom.

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

They altered the West Side Story visuals, didn't they? Wasn't that against the rules? As far as I'm concerned, Titanic is a horror story, so that's no stretch.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

In honor of the upcoming Wallis & Gromit movie, I picked up CREATURE COMFORTS SEASON 1, which came out (or came out again) last Tuesday.

It says 13 episodes plus the original short (plus making of stuff). I don't know where these got broadcast, but I'm thoroughly chuffed about this. Is there a good web site to decode DVD easter eggs out there? It wouldn't surprise me if the hid the CC ad campaign somewhere instead of having them as an official item on the disc.

Easter egg sites.

Y'know, you'd think at this point I'd just learn to Google things before I ask, but nooooooo.

Although I also was hoping someone had a particularly good one that they knew of, I guess.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I generally go to dvdeastereggs.com.

When there were two, I could have told you which one was better.

Now, I don't even bother to remember. I check until I find the eggs for the movie in question, or until I've hit four sites. Whichever comes first.

I prefer E-eggs. www.eeggs.com

Huh, I like that as an SOP.

Anyway, thanks for the recs, all.
