I think it was reminding me of Star Wars, but that may just be the general John Williamsness shining through.
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

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.
There's an old lady watching The Lives of Others but we didn't sell any tickets for this last show. I'm afraid of startling her if I walk up in the dark and ask to see her ticket, plus she looks kinda scary in a stern headmistress sort of way. Plus there's less than half an hour left of the show. I would have died if I had to leave without watching the ending. I am letting her get away with it. Go sneaky old lady!

I saw You Kill Me this weekend. Quirky, odd, but well-acted and moving. Apparently someone pushed Ben Kingsley's talent switch to "on" again.
Also took in a show of HPatOotP. Um, Dumbledore's "not going quietly" moment and his big fight with Voldemort were great. As were the two big shattering glass SFX scenes. Other than that, I wish I'd brought a book to read.

Matt, I too was underwhelmed by HPatOotP. I actually left wondering whether I kept needing to see the film versions at all.

I regard my $6 as an expression of gratitude to Daniel Radcliffe for posing in all those Equus promotional shots.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
did anyone else think the theme that plays as Harry enters the Ministry (and elsewhere in the movie) was rather similar to that from the Broadway musical of Les Miserable? That circular rushing of the strings.
Juliebird, yes, I kept flashing on Les Miserables too! Glad it wasn't just me.
