I've never seen a Preston Sturges movie, but I hate sturgeons, so I bet they're all fishy!
Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

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.

I have seen Pippi Longstocking, and on behalf of all Swedes everywhere, I say--"PFFFFTTTT!!" to Mr. Sean.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Midnight Cowboy and Easy Rider are irrelevant.
I'm no slouch when it comes to uninformed opinions, but that exercise was way hard. Relatedly, the biggest problem with that list for me is sentimentality-- Star Wars? E.T.? It's A Wonderful Life? GWTW? Come on, people.
Oh, did anyone watch last night when Dustin Hoffman was weeping about his contribution to mankind in playing a woman and showing men how awesome unattractive women can be?

I'd be worried about that Kath, but *SWEDISH*!

Sean, if you feel so inclined, you can go to this page and listen to me caterwauling out-of-tune about Myrna Loy.

That scene where Pippi has a game of chess with Death on the shore? Surprisingly action-packed and gripping.

Also, why is The African Queen on the list? It's really not that great. (I've seen it.)
