Dork Tower's take on Snakes on a Plane
And they've even got an Alton Brown reference!
Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

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.

I just finished watching To Kill a Mockingbird on TCM this morning. I've seen it before, but it's worth watching again. It's pretty close to a perfect film.

Because books.
"Jean Louise, stand up. Your father is passing."
That gives me a chill every. time. Such a wonderful moment.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
My favorite moment is when Scout calls out the town's men in their hoods.

Love that movie. Of course, with an absentee dad, it's pretty tear-inducing so sometimes I have to *not* watch it. Still wish I had an Atticus.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
hell, I had a pretty great dad and I STILL wish I had an Atticus.

That's the scene we came in on this morning. Scout shaming the lynch mob into turning around and going home.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
"Jean Louise, stand up. Your father is passing."
I choke up even reading it. So wonderful.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I saw this short film a couple of years ago and have been meaning to hunt it down. Today, with work being so busy, I figured I'd check to see if it was on youtube. Bingo!

I think my favorite (funny) TKAM line is when the kids are walking Atticus back to the house at the end of the workday, and he stops to charm the cranky old lady next door.
Atticus: "Why, Mrs. [Blahblah], you look a picture today!"
Scout to Dill and Jem behind his back: "He don't say a picture of what."
Atticus gives her a "shush" swat on the arm.
