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?
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.
Early ,'Objects In Space'
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.

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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, thank God! I thought I was the only one. I don't think even DB and AD doing their spastic dances on the "Angel" outtakes were half so gleefully dorkalicious.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
X3 pictures. Why would you release this? It looks like ass!

What, I wonder was wrong with how they did Colossus in X2? I fear the answer is as stupid as "too expensive."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
OK, I received this via some "e-mail" thingie:
Dear Thomas,
As a member of MovieTickets.com who has expressed interest in entertainment market research, you are being offered the unique opportunity to join the Movie Advisory Board ("MAB"), a partnership between MovieTickets.com, Nielsen Entertainment and a select group of movie consumers. The Movie Advisory Board is the entertainment industry's first venture of its kind, joining an exclusive group of moviegoers with the leader in movie ticketing and the industry's preeminent entertainment research firm. As a member of the MAB, you will be invited to participate in a broad array of communication forums and provided the opportunity to attend, at your discretion, free movie screenings, to utilize instant feedback mechanisms on films you have just seen, and even to share your opinions about future films.
To join the MAB, we ask that you respond to an initial questionnaire linked to the end of this letter that should take less than five minutes of your time to complete. By completing and submitting the initial questionnaire, you are representing that you are at least 18 years old and are a legal resident of the United States as of the date you submit the initial questionnaire to us. Once completed, you will have the opportunity over the course of your membership on the MAB to share your insights and attitudes towards movies and the movie going experience. You will never, however, be obligated to share your views. Membership on the MAB will simply give you the opportunity to share your views voluntarily, at your sole discretion.
Here's their website: [link] From the website:
MAB members' insights and attitudes towards movies and the movie going experience are extremely valuable to executives in Hollywood and across the globe who make decisions about what films get funded, how they develop creatively, where they are distributed, and a host of related questions about DVDs, video games, soundtracks and sequels.
Is this just some marketing b.s.? Should I join, just to destroy the system from within help good movies get better released/promoted?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
tommyrot, I got the same e-mail a month or two ago. I joined, because why not? Though I could be a patsy.

Apparently, the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants will next be attacking Wisteria Lane.

Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'
I have such low expectations for this movie. Pretty much all I'm looking forward to is more Pyro.

The first two were solid superhero movies, and fun. I'm more than pissed about this one. Since I don't expect I'll like Superman Returns either, it's pissed².
