Matt! How could you forget Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves?
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

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.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
One of the fun things about Near Dark is that it's very, very straight, as a movie. So it's all about blood=sex, but not at all homoerotic. The big sexual image is of a guy on his knees, sucking hungrily at a woman's wrist (which is at about waist height).
It was -- refreshing. Funny, that a vampire movie featuring a boy and a girl should feel so revolutionary (in modern context). Like it went all the way to the end of the conventionalness scale, and came out the other side.
There is also the part where it takes place in rural Texas, and nobody ever says the word "vampire."

Opa!, askye. He likes hard-boiled carrots. (Not quite like being befriended by Oprah, George, but I'll do what I can for you.)

I'm not forgetting it, I just wasn't aware that Costner was bothering to try for a British accent in it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I liked The Wisdom Of Crocodiles.

The accent went in and out. And then at some point, I believe that he just stops trying.

I remember Cary Elwes busting on him in Robin Hood: Men in Tights about how, unlike some other Robin Hoods, he spoke with an English accent.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I loved Lili Taylor in it.
