Horns. They're using horns on the Viking helmets. I can smell the cheese from here.
Yes, Matt's point is a very disquieting one.
Take me, sir. Take me hard.

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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I get the feeling that the producer thought up this idea on a Sunday afternoon.

Oh, Tom, you are evil. That is awesome and terrible both at once.
Next up: Buccaneers take on the 49ers! Cutlasses will be crossed with pickaxes! Losers hanged from the yardarm or the nearest sequoia!!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hoping to go see Volver tonight. Movies on a school night always makes me feel as if I am getting away with something, even though I haven't been in school in, um, 29 years.

I saw Volver last night and it was wonderful. I'm always amazed at the great performances Almodovar gets out of Penelope Cruz. I never think much of her in general but in this movie (and in All About My Mother , my favorite Almodovar movie) she's excellent. Also? HOTT!!! Anyway, fabulous movie!
Miyazaki fans: Is My Neighbor Totoro acceptable for a two-year-old? I'm not remembering anything graphic (like in Princess Mononoke ) or scary (like in Spirited Away ), but am I forgetting anything?

Definitely acceptable? I really want to start the niece off young in developing a love of all things Japanese so we can geek out together. She's already down with Hello Kitty.

I was just going through the Flick Filosopher's site, and found her review of Stranger Than Fiction, which she loves and compares to Groundhog Day in both its style and star, and its potential to become an instant classic.
I'm definitely going to see this film, since that's not the first excellent review I've read of it.

Well, that's all I need to hear, really. I already wanted to see it. Thanks for the review, Kathy.

Yes, indeed. The plot development may be a little confusing for the toddler mind, but my little Sphere liked the Totoro and catbus segments. On another note, I found Kiki's Delivery Service pretty slow - it's my least favorite Miyazaki - but my neighbors say their 2-yr-old loves the hell out of it.
