'Just Rewards (2)'


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.

Huskies (at least ones with big eyes and pathetic eyes) may well be Jessica's cheetahsweak spot.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It's the tender love story of a terminally ill man who was reborn as a Pakistani squid, and his fight to regain his former glory as a champion professional wrestler. Except this time, he's got 8 extra appedages, an ink sac, and (presumably) a beak. His rival, enraged at the prospect that he might be defeated in the ring by a giant squid, transforms himself into a similarly giant octopus. The two oversized cephalopods do goodly battle, finally giving a definitive answer to "who would win in a fight between a squid and an octopus".

HMOG that's brilliant. I know at least 5 people who need to own this DVD.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The screencaps are just flat-out awesome.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Sweet Italian Jesus. I need to own that movie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I need to buy that movie for people.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

"And just in case you needed more cognitive dissonance in your life, here's a squid on an elliptical machine." I could not stop laughing.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Jessica, thanks for the whitefont. I know of several other people who will be glad of the information.

As for the squid movie...there are no words. Except that I really, really want a LJ icon of the squid on the elliptical.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

I have NO idea what is up with the guy with the beer can on his head.

That looks like one of the Tokyo Shock Boys!

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Paris Hilton considered for the role of the young Mother Teresa? [link]

Until someone tells me otherwise, I'm gonna assume that Hilton is being punk'd in a really creative way.
