It says "The Seeker" in big bright capitol letters. I have been earwormed with The Who song for days.
Which in turn makes me want to see The Limey again.
Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

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.
Now this looks like a buffista movie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Just watched Sunshine. I was a bit impatient with it, and spent way too long waiting for someone to be incredibly craven in the face of death, and was not disappointed.
I liked Michelle Yeoh exactly as much as expected. I liked Rose Byrne a fair amount--I just finished watching the first ep of Damages this morning, so that was interesting juxtaposition. Cillian Murphy was Cillian Murphy, otherworldy and just shy of fey (he should have a fey-off with Jonathan Rhys Meyers--there can be eyeliner, if they need). I was surprised at how much I liked Chris Evans. His character was written pretty much the perfect crew member, save rubbing the blood on Capa--they'd have been fine (although a useless trip) if Trey hadn't fucked up. I think, anyway. I might have missed a calculation here or there. But he did a good job not doing any of the stuff I liked him doing in the Fantastic Four.
I could become a fan.
And I would certainly have his babies, although I wouldn't raise them or anything.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Oh, it should be written into the rules of the contest.

and I liked Branagh's Hamlet.
I loved his Henry V and hated his Hamlet. One of the three movies I have walked out of. (The other two are The Muppet Movie and this very long British movie called The Fool.)
I saw his theatre company do Lear in Toroto in 1990? 1991? The production was just okay. Branagh played Edgar and was terrible. Emma Thompson played The Fool as a misshapen, almost Igor like character and just completely blew me away. Definitely in the top three stage performances I've ever seen.
I knew the Branagh/Thompson marriage was in jeopardy by the end of that play because I realized that A) She was waaaaaay more talented than she was, and B) he would not be able to deal with that.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Only movie I ever walked out of was the last Star Wars. My partner kept snoring. We made it about 40 minutes. I even sat through Blade:Trinity. Admittedly, that was because I was watching Ryan Reynolds.

Get this, Megan: they passed on Crispin Glover to cast him.
Oh. as usual. dear.

I have a sneaking suspicion Heath may be easier to work with than Crispin. Seeing as he'll just be faking the crazy. You know--acting.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
the only way I'll ever see the third Star Wars is if I'm drunk and I stole the DVD. And if someone will sit in front of me with silhouettes of alien robots and talk smack.
And I have much faith in Heath playing the Joker, and go! Maggie Gyllenhaal for taking away one reason to fast-forward through Batman. Could they CGI her into Batman Begins?
