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.
Thanks to Hec & JZ, I have now seen Slings & Arrows, and my Paul Gross love continues unabated. Seriously. He's all brilliantly mad and spouting Shakespeare - right up my alley.
Yay! Isn't he spectacular? I need to send that tape off to Theo so the Somervillains can partake.

Every time he gives one of his Big Kick-Ass-And-Take-Names Master Director speeches, my heart wells up with this O Captain, My Captain! sensation and I have to physically restrain myself from running out the door in a mad dash straight to Canada just so he can boss me around.
There needs to be a DVD of that show. Seriously.

On my third re-watch, I started FFing through the Mark McKinney plot just to get to the Paul Gross bits again. Damn.
Though I do love Mark McKinney, too. The teleconference scene where he's talking calmly while stabbity-stabbing the phone with his middle finger is a wonder, as is his incredibly polite, stereotypically Canadian towering rage at the very end -- shaking with rage and revulsion, winding himself up to a fever pitch, and finally unleashing both painfully mannerly barrels on his Lady Macbeth/Iago with a sotto voce "You are a.... TERRIBLE PERSON," and then closing the door. Oh, snap!
Is this thing torrentable or anything?

Probably. If not, Chez Zmayhem could send you something in a VHS.
I'll have to check the sites when I get home.
I suspect my VCR doesn't even work. Last time I powered it on, it ate a friend's tape. I think it's sulking about my Netflix queue being 400 discs deep.

Can't you buy a new one at a 99 cent store?

Is there still such a thing as a new VCR?

I heard the UN has developed a special hand crank VCR for third world countries that want all our taped-from-the-WB Buffy tapes.
