I thought the shouting and hacking of the tank was loud enough to be heard throughout the theater. So as soon as the banging was heard, he knew to disappear "forever."
Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

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.

Always Anti-fascist!
I just watched "Crash". All I can say is, the acclaim it got is proof that coke has not disappeared from Hollywood. They should have picked one of those stories and told it for real instead of the whole "Short Cuts" thing. Although I liked "Short Cuts".

"I am the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world"
Just started watching Hot Fuzz. Holy crap, this has everybody!
That is showing up in my mailbox tomorrow...cannot wait
I liked The Departed a whole lot--up until the end, where I thought it got needlessly twisty.I dunno I rode with it the whole way. Though for most movies I'd say the very ending was unneccessary, but for The Departed it was the frosting on a fantastic cake. I've not seen CoM yet and can't compare the two.
I shudder to think what Dick Cheney could do with an army of obedient zombie soldiers. Even somewhat-disobedient ones.
The obedient would eat the disobedient. I would be faster than the other zombies or eaten. It depends on the zombie rules in that situation/world. Running Zombies? In the clear. No running? Eaten.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
So I just re-read The Mist, and I now know that I cannot go see the movie. How had I forgotten that there are giant spiders in this story?! Lots of them, even. Oh well.

Oh yes, it's a cult classic.

Pagan?
That's kind of why it's known. It was a rare expression of pagan beliefs in the seventies. But it's also scary/creepy. It's not laughable like the recent one.

Other people's beliefs are usually pretty interesting. Nicholas Cage's movie roles however...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Jilli, did you see LOTR: The Return of the King? I have a friend who shares your phobia, but he said RotK was sufficiently non-realistic that it didn't bother him.
