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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Wow. How horribly sad.

You need to read her whole story. The end is sad, but she and Suzanne were so brave in their resistance actions. And she had a very interesting creative life.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

GC do you get any benefits registering as dp's?

Yes, that's why we went ahead with it. GF is on my health insurance and we have more rights in regard to health and property issues, too. I still sometimes get paranoid about it in these Dubya times.

I will read the whole story, Hec. Sounds really fascinating.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Next to the unforgiveable bastardization of League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, the stupid tacked-on romance subplot of V for V was barely a blip.

God, yes. This.

shudders

Also, for comics in general, I watched Superman Returns last night, which was so hokey and terrible and anvillicious that I longed for the relative subtlety of V for V.

And yet Superman Returns was still several zillion times less offensive and angry-making than X3.

Oh, Brian Singer. What were you thinking?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Oh, Brian Singer. What were you thinking?

That he was glad he hadn't made the third X-Men movie?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Maybe he was upset that the script didn't call for Jean Gray to make more Jesus poses.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Live action? just no...

signed way too attached to certain childhood memories.

The only anime I'd less want to see live action is "Amazing three"

Spacemen with a mission You must make a very big decision
With your solar bomb you could destroy us,
Or save the world or save the world
Amazing three! Amazing three! Amazing three!

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

Live action?

Sort of. Not really.

move out and draw fire

Want Battle of the Planets.

Discussing V for V with the guy who originally loaned me the book back in the day, and his entire comment on the movie was "Portman's pits were shaven in the baptism scene. Really threw me out of the whole mood."
