what if the captain of the Dutchman doesn't have an SO when s/he takes over command?
I think that Big Love is intrinsic to the Flying Dutchman myth/magic. You probably aren't eligible for captaincy without it.
Wesley: We're going to bring Angelus in alive. Connor: No we're not. Gunn: I thought you said capturing him wasn't an option. Wesley: Changed my mind. Connor: Change it back.

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.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
We saw Die Hard this weekend. I recall this comment from Bob: "John McClane is like the roach motel for Eurotrash!"
Also: I still have a thing for Tim Olyphant, though he was probably wasted in this.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Saw Transformers yesterday. I have been informed that the new Die Hard was better, but it could hardly be funnier, intentionally or not.
It was a massively stupid movie with stupid decisions made and a resolution that made no sense.
That having been said, I hope John Rogers got paid and then some. Just puz.

So aside from Harry Potter, what else are people looking forward to seeing that's coming out this summer? I'm kinda curious about the Herzog movie that's coming out this week (it's already opened in New York, I think).

The Bourne Ultimatum! I'm probably more excited for that one than HP5. I'm rewatching the first two today while I clean the house -- they're just lots of fun. I wish I were a spy. Think where you could go with all those passports!

Oh wait, Black Sheep has opened, yes?

I think so. It's also available from Comcast's OnDemand already!

Yes and no. I saw a bunch of cities listed and the weeks it would be opening, and there was NO MENTION OF BOSTON!!! Durham, NC yes, Boston no. Harumph.
I'm also still kicking myself that I missed LABYRINTH the week it played at Kendall. If it hadn't been the week of the 4th, I would have tried to organize a localista outing to it.
