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.

There was a part on The Wire last season where a young cornerboy freaked when he couldn't find his radio station and got PHC about tomatoes. Cause he didn't know when you leave town the stations change. I don't think he'd been anywhere.

Don't give away the best joke ever made about Garrison Keillor!
Is the punchline "The Aristocrats!"?
"But I needed the eggs?"
Is it the one that starts, "A priest, a rabbi, a duck and Garrison Keillor walk into a bar...."?
"I'm a frayed knot."
