Second movie of the day: Troy.
This time I'm pretty confident the movie really is just that bad. Sure is pretty, though.

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!
Troy was one of the few times I saw a movie in the theatre and really wanted to ask for my money back.
I am perfectly happy with the six dollars I spent on Enchanted, however. Loved it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I just watched Atonement. I was really enjoying it up until about the last 10 minutes. Oh well.

I saw LONG KISS GOODNIGHT with some friends tonight. Dear LORD I love that movie. And I always seem to forget just how many great lines are in it.
"He's been licking his asshole for the last three straight hours. I submit to you that there is nothing there worth more than an hour's attention. I should think that whatever he is attempting to dislodge is either gone for good, or there to stay. Wouldn't you agree? "
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" "I hope not, 'cause I'm thinking how much my balls hurt."
"Easy, sport. I got myself outta Beirut once, I think I can get outta New Jersey." "Yeah? Well, don't be so sure. Others have tried and failed. The entire population, in fact."
"I sock 'em in the jaw and yell, 'Pop goes the weasel.'"
"I'm hurt real bad. I think I'm dying." "Continue dying. Out."

Today I watched Enchanted, Hard Candy, and National Treasure. And I liked them all!

I just saw it yesterday as well, and thought it was very good. I didn't mind the ending at all. From what I've heard it chimes a lot with the tenor of the novel (which I haven't read).
Loved the performances, especially McAvoy's (but then, I love him anyway).

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We went to see Margot at the Wedding, which was baaaaaaad. Badly written, totally unlikable characters facing a lot of writer-created angst and badly shot. Bleagh.

I managed to avoid the Troy this weekend, but I rented Music and Lyrics and Reign Over Me.
Hugh needs a facelift, but still gives good shirtless. Less said about that movie, the better.
Adam Sandler still has problems with subtle, but the last 15 minutes or so of the movie was very affecting. He cries easily. Jada Pinkett Smith? Needs muscles in her face so I can tell the difference between a smile and a frown.
