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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Saw Narnia.

Love love love. I forgave them Lucy not being blonde (maybe that was just the cartoon? my head? I think it was in the book) once I saw the actress. Marvelous. I loved the casting of all the children and how they actually looked like siblings. I loved the period detail and feel. I didn't mind the changes because none of them seemed a) gratuitous or b) completely out of sync.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

My poor sister. She's unholily obsessed with this movie. I think if she'd fandomed before, it wouldn't be such a shock. She wants to be free of it, I suspect, but can't...oh, god, I'm going to say it..quit it.

I need to be an email buddy with your sister for awhile, I think.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Now I'm somewhat afeard to go see it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

See it! It's so good!! Really wonderful. And sad. But good! t /inarticulate

I just want to scoop them up and keep them safe and young and beautiful forever and ever and ever.

I agree, Trudy. I LOVED Narnia. It was so beautifully done. I didn't remember that Lucy was a blonde in the book, but the actress who played her was the cutest.thing.ever.

Hey. New board.

I've imagined Lucy being a brunette for forever. So either I have very bad attention-paying skills, she was a brunette in the book, or it was never mentioned.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Lucy was a brunette in the BBC miniseries, which is the visual I think most people have seared into their brains.

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

Or maybe you had some subconscious brunette!Lucy bleeding over from Peanuts.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I loved it too. Glad that my Tumnus love was not roused to ire by the movie Tumnus, who was as charming and fey and daffy as I hoped he would be.
