Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

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.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm feeling particularly vulnerable, since Curious George is the house mascot of where I work. So I want the movie to be good. ::Sigh::

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Seconding the ::sigh::. I too wanted the Curious George movie to be good. Oh, well.

Curious George was the very first book I ever got to take home from the library. It was a big deal. And Curious George Rides a Bike is what got me started with origami.

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

My favorite was when Curious George went into space. But I think I was already a fan of the space program before I read that one.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I liked when Curious George went to the hospital and got high on the ether.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I liked when Curious George went to the hospital and got high on the ether.

Which book was that? Curious George and the Crack Whores?

I think Rides a Bike. He goes to the hospital becaus he breaks his leg.

Now I wanna see Curious George and the Furries.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Which book was that? Curious George and the Crack Whores?

You used to be able to get a t-shirt of the scene where Curious George gets stoned on Ether. It's great!

Jeez, I read the Curious George books to Emmett more than any other thing in his childhood. I'm pretty sure I read each book at least 50 or 60 times.

So I am right in remembering this:

Correct me if I'm wrong on this, but in the books, doesn't TMITBYH BRING George home with him?

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I couldn't say for sure, Aimee. As opposed to stowing away in TMITYH's luggage, you mean, or however it happens in the trailer?

That "Hooked on a Feeling" video has filled my entire day with joy. In fact, now that I have experienced it, I feel a distinct sense of radiant peace suffusing my entire being.
