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!

OMG, Jess. Too funny. And he got to talk to McShane. I think that's worth a pimping pass.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

DH and I went out (out!) to see Elzizabeth: The Golden Age last night. It was fun, but not quite as much fun as I was hoping for. From the previews, I was expecting a complete crack-addled costume porntravaganza. And it did get there by the end, but not before waaaaaay too much Elizabeth throwing hissy fits over not being allowed to have sex with Clive Owen. Which, you know, I get, but it's not what I go to the movies to see.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

DH and I went out (out!)

Yay!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Hey, I understand her motivations. I'm throwing a hissy fit over not being able to have sex with Clive Owen RIGHT NOW.

Not sure if it makes for good drama, though.

information libertarian

My boss (a British history librarian in her 60s) told me yesterday she wanted to see Elizabeth this weekend, and I said I'd heard there were some historical inaccuracies, so if those bothered her she might want to be warned. She replied, "Oh, I just want to see CLIVE OWEN! In doublet and hose!"

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I stayed home yesterday and caught "You've Been Served" on some channel.

Question: When did the "rival performance teams square off in a competition only to tie and then have a dance/drum/rap/walk-off where the rules all change and the protaganist (who inevitably got booted earlier in the story) gets to compete and that makes the team win" become it's very own genre? Am I late to the game and I'm just not remembering it in other, earlier movies?

Rocky and Apollo Creed tied in Rocky I, but I don't think that's what you're asking about.

Well. I can mark Rocky off my list of movies to see

Hee.
