I loved The Muppet Movie but I haven't seen it since I was ten. ET we saw at the big anniversary re-release thing and it didn't hold up well. Especially with all the changes. And I was hoping for Harrison Ford's footage getting restored but that was just a big tease.
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.

Whoo Tony Leung!
Wow, first Bergman, now Michelangelo Antonioni is dead.
Quick! Someone go check on... uhm, which other venerable European director is still alive? Eric Rohmer? Werner Herzog?
Whoo Tony Leung!
Seriously, he has the saddest, most beautiful face EVERRRRRR.
Werner Herzog cannot be killed by ordinary means. He will outlive us all.

I'd be very afraid if I was Jean-Luc Godard.
Werner Herzog cannot be killed by ordinary means. He will outlive us all.
I was going to say.
It was an insignificant bullet.
And a week or so later he pulls Joaquim Phoneix out of a car crash.
I remember one time Herzog took his family to Sea World... they were watching Shamu the whale when Herzog got splashed! So Herzog yells, 'I'm Werner Herzog and no one gets me wet!' So he climbs into the tank, grabs Shamu and throws the whale into the audience, splashes him and yells, 'How do you like it?!' And then damn if Herzog didn't step in there and finish the show!"...
That guy could kick Chuck Norris' and Jack Bauer's collective asses in a three way match. Not by pure skill, but by the fact he'd shrug off all of their attacks. Chuck Norris would roundhouse him and he'd say "it was an insignificant kick" Jack would shoot him "insignificant bullet from an insignificant man."
