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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The Muppet Show.
Ha! Really?? That would definitely be it. He's always given me the willies.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I haven't seen 60 out of the 100 movies. In my defense, if it's also a stage play, I've probably seen it in that format. I have little desire to watch Psycho, Platoon, Apocalypse Now, and other high-stress films. Also Gone With The Wind, but that's because I get bored about 5 minutes in. The rest are on my Netflix queue, though.

it's solely due to the creepiness of Joel Grey
The shift in attitude of the general German on the street, as represented by the M.C. (Joel Grey), was brilliantly shown by Fosse. Grey's changing from embracing the decadence of the Weimar era to favoring the thuggish and racist ideas of the Nazis is subtle, yet chilling.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I wonder if The Third Man was bumped because it's not American enough. Incidentally I just rented the criterion edition, only to find out a newer Criterion was just released with an disk of extras and commentary by Soderbergh, who gives good commentary.

There are many reasons that I would like to kick Tom Hanks's ass, but the time I spent unwillingly watching Forrest Gump is primary among them.

Joel Grey is a freakin' brilliant actor. I wish I could have seen him on stage.

It's better than Forrest Gump!!!
Preach it sister! Hate, hate, hate that movie. Although I'd rather see that on the list than Dances with Wolves.

It's regularly near the top of the list of British films.
