Jesse, come on, it's not Shag, it's Shag: The Movie!
Heh.
These are stone killers, little man. They ain't cuddly like me.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
My issue with the Philadelphia Story movie is much like mine with the Rent movie (as opposed to standing issues with the show). Katherine, as much as I love her, is too old for the part.

People that don't like Bull Durham are simply bad human beings. I don't mean to impugn your taste, but it's a proven fact. Really, it's not even a question of taste, it's about your worth as human beings on this planet. Consider yourselves judged.
Actually, we're not just bad but evil. And intent on World Domination. Consider yourself on notice, Costner-lovers.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Is it acceptable to love Bull Durham if you otherwise despise Costner? (With another exception for Field of Dreams, of course.)

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Huh. I've never thought that of The Philadelphia Story. Cary Grant isn't too young for her, and he plays the ex-husband. I figured the character would be a little older since she's been married once already.

My understanding is that all people who love Bull Durham secretly also love The Postman. I believe I read this on IMDB.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I worked on the play, so I lived...rather intimately with the script, and we had the same problem as the movie.
At the time, I thought the actress who played Leo's daughter would be perfect for the part (this was circa season 1 or 2)

Shit's all sorts of different now.

SHE WAS NOT.

This is not an argument I'm going to win with logic, is it?
