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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The only things we'll get right are that the US won, we were fighting Britan, George III was king and that's it. Everything else will be pure embelishment.
Awesome! What sort of embellishments?
- Washingtong's secret allies: The Klingons!
- Chemical warefare! Minutmen spike the Redcoats' water with LSD!
- Patrick Henry singlehandedly destroys the British Zeppelin factory!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Also, Washington will be played by Colin Firth, and will have several hundred costume changes, each more gaudy-yet-flattering than the last.

Heh. Have you ever heard the old Stan Freeberg "United States of America, the Early Years"? Hysterical, and has GW getting into fights w/Betsy Ross over flag design and with the boat rental guy over which color boat to choose for the Delaware crossing.

Except, of course, for the final, climactic fist fight with King George, which will feature both men in a knock down, drag out, bare chested, bare knuckle brawl, so they can both show off their bulging muscles.

I love, love, love Stan Freeberg, and especially this piece...WAMU plays it every year on the Big Broadcast (my favorite radio show) around the 4th. Hysterically Historical.

And GW will be winning, so King George will fight dirty.
