Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell  

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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

"What did you think/I would say at this moment?/When I'm faced with the knowledge/That you just don't love me?/Did you think I would curse you/Or say things to hurt you/'Cause you just don't love me no more?"

My sister!

I feel like I'm opening up about some seriously shameful thing here, what with the Alex Keaton Woobification of my youth.

Heh, you want hilarity? Check out CLASS OF '84 where a very young, very chubby Michael J. Fox gets abused (and I think eventually knifed) by Vince Van Patten's gang of psychotic teens. Also worthy for Roddy MacDowell giving a pop quiz to his class using a gun as motivation for them. Teensploitation trash of the highest order.

It's a shame it was SUCH a violent movie because it would have made excellent MST3K material.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I thought Fox was better than decent in Casualties of War. But that was a long time ago. I might think differently now.

I'd agree with that. Sean Penn was great too, though thoroughly repulsive (appropriately so).

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Then let me be in that corner with you, babe.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

Hiya. I know I almost never post here, but I started raving in Bitches and then remembered that we have a movie thread...

So, yes. Everyone must run, run, to the nearest movie theatre and go see Kinky Boots.

OMGWTF FUNNY and sweet and quirky and fun. Also phenomenal soundtrack and hot drag queens and did I mention GO SEE IT.

I saw that tonight! Okay, I was flicking from another movie because of the painful. That was so shot in Toronto. A&A records. Casa Loma. There was indeed a knifing of the Keaton. Al Waxman, the King of Kensington, plays a cop. Roddy McDowell cries, snaps and flips out like a mammal.

Nah, other than being a historical artefact, there's nothing redeemable about that movie. I miss A&A records, though.
