But she's half human, half vampire, and she's teamed with people that might otherwise be hunting her down in order to kill the bad vampires.
Ah. Didn't realize she was half-human or anything about the plot of the movie.
Wash: I mean, I'm the one she swore to love, honor and obey. Mal: Listen... She swore to obey? Wash: Well, no, not...

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Joss looks positively brilliant by going for vampire with a soul instead of a dhampire.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor
Huh. Did we know Christopher Walken has overtaken Michael Caine as the man least likely to turn down a movie role?
They don't get to duke it out for that title until Christopher Lee is dead. He owns them both put together.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Lee's been in lots of movies over his long, long career, but there's a good chance of people on this board checking their family's old home movies and discovering Michael Caine in them.

True. Lee padded his resumé (227 on imdb, to Caine's 120 and Walken's 99) with just tons of films no one ever saw. My mother called him a film whore once, and that's strong language for my mum. Looking at the filmographies of the other two, there's a higher recognition percentage.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
- Lee has 227 movies over 58 years: 3.9/year
- Caine has 120 over 50: 2.4/year
- Walken edges Caine with 2.425/year
Very unscientific means, since I didn't take out TV listings except for Walken's first two.

Murder Story!
Which I've been feeling like making other people watch again, because I like to watch their faces when I show it to them.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
HELP! We were at Munich tonight and there was a fire alarm near the end and they shut down the theater. What happens after Avner and Efraim meet in New York and walk along the river and Avner asks for proof that the men he killed really did what they said?
I think it is non-spoilery to say that Eric Bana is HAWT, as well as talented.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Munich: what happens is, Efram is kind of a turd and won't say [argue argue argue about abstract nouns], and Avner dorkily says "We're a pair of Israelis in a foreign land, I have to ask you to break bread with my family," and Efram says no and walks away like a great big turd, and Avner is left standing there in Brooklyn alone, and the "what happened after" notes scroll.
You probably only missed about 2 minutes of the movie, but the implication in that scene is that they're arguing in a Brooklyn park that faces Manhattan, and you can see the Twin Towers in the background, and nothing is resolved and all will happen again.
Agree on liking Bana. The coolest thing was when his character was pretending to be German, you could hear his accent change. Double nerd points.
