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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

The list of things I love about Love Actually is too long to post here.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Equilibrium makes me laugh, and it's a bit too earnest and serious, but I still adore it. Hated The Ref the first time I watched it but now love it to itty bitty bits. That's up there with Mixed Nuts. Adore Love Actually. And another holiday fave is Home for the Holidays with Holly Hunter and pretty pretty men.

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

I just watched Sunshine. Oof. That's up there with Spider-Man 3 on my list of Movies You Should Only Watch Half Of.

Because right up until the reveal of the "fifth crew member," I was really enjoying it. And then it went from awesome to craptacular in the space of about three seconds. What a waste.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm not speaking to Plei any more.

Not liking Truly, Madly, Deeply. Hmph.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Jessica, I agree.

I just watched Sunshine. Oof. That's up there with Spider-Man 3 on my list of Movies You Should Only Watch Half Of.

So walking out of it at the 50 minute mark was a good decision, then?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

That's all right, Dana. I'll watch with you.

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

I saw I am Legend last night. Should have been called I am Interesting for the First 30 minutes and Then Craptacular CGI and a Zillion Plot Holes Take Over

Now tagless for your comfort.

I am Legend Scrappy.

I thoroughly enjoyed WS's acting but I would have appreciated less CGI (feh on the herds of deer and the lions--STUPID and unnecessary) and more exposition on the Dark Seekers. The ending didn't piss me off as much as I expected.
