I hasten to add that no eagles get shot in Eagle Shooting Heroes. It seems to be one of those phrases that the translators just gave up on.
Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I would have expected heroes to be shot by an eagle.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
So wait, it's not about golf?

No, but strangely enough, it was the original title of The Legend of Bagger Vance.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Ahahaha!

Maybe this will help make that feeling go away, Frank?
Well it was frelling hilarious, I'll say that (though sadly either it doesn't like Macs, mine's too old, or I've never configured this thing right to get decent vids and such, cause it was wicked skippy even after I let it get the whole way through once). Not lacking in any testosterone, but the funk is of a completely different type.

It may just be a RAM shortage, as it played smoothly on my work Mac but is likewise skippy here on the laptop.
I had to stop and have a laughing fit midway through my first viewing when the spinning decapitated head popped up in the center panel.

I just saw Harry Potter 5 in IMAX this afternoon. It's the first time I've seen a theatrical film (not made for IMAX) in that format, and it was better than I thought it'd be. I'd heard stories about other films, such as the LotR movies, shown on the bigger screen and being fuzzy in the corners, etc., but this movie had no such problems. The 3D part at the end (starting with the kids on thestrals, heading for the Ministry, through to Harry packing for the summer) was quite cool, especially the chase through the Hall of Prophecy and the Dumbledore vs. Voldemort fight at the end (all those glass fragments look deadly when they're flying through the air).

I came home from my trip and Dennis had set aside a movie from his queue for me to watch, George and the Dragon. He said, "it's got James Purefoy, Michael Clarke Duncan, Patrick Swayze and Val Kilmer."
I thought, a cast like that and I never heard of it, "does it suck?"
He shook his head, laughing, "oh man it sucks so bad."
Still James Purefoy, swoony swoony and dragons, eh? How bad can it be?
Oh lordy. It Is Bad. I think they've got a Patrick Swayze bot. And for some reason James Purefoy isn't hot anymore. I wish he'd wash his face. But I can't turn it off.

Laga, George and the Dragon was/is one of those "so-bad-you-can't-look-away" movies I've seen on Sci-Fi. They just have a twisted special place in my heart. The truly sad part is that there is a discussion thread on IMDB where people were desperately trying to get copies.
