Plus, he was genuinely good in River's Edge. Like, no monotone!
Xander: Look who's got a bad case of Dark Prince envy. Dracula: Leave us. Xander: No, we're not going to "Leabbb you." And where'd you get that accent, Sesame Street? "One, Two, Three - three victims! Maw ha ha!"

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.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I think it was Jeff Daniels, not Bill Pullman.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I have never seen River's Edge-- I will have to wqtch. I did however fall asleep approximately 127 times trying to watch my own private idaho with my friend Melyssa in high school. She also had bootleg REM tapes!!

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Speed was such an awesome vehicle (no pun intended) for Keanu. That was the first time me and my mom went "whoa" over him.
He wasn't even on my radar for Dangerous Liasons, so my love for that movie is still pure.
Iron Man, well, I think that was the first movie in awhile that left me grinning. Fun, horrific, silly, sad, touching, FUN! Also: Iron Man theme song RULES!
Demolition Man is SO MUCH FUN! "Let's go blow this guy!" "It's 'blow him away'"
also much fun to be had with The Last Boy Scout, and I'll echo the inability to love Hudson Hawk, no matter how many times I've tried to watch it.
Is it wrong that I still love Young Guns (and YG2)? I like the sound of them. Just hearing the dialogue and the music is comforting and classic to me. And I will always love me some Doc and Chavez.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I recently rewatched Young Guns 2 and it left me with a sour taste in my mouth. I'm leery of rewatching the original in case I ruin that too. Billy The Kid was just so desperate and pathetic. He was more fun in the first one, right?

taking into account that I still haven't seen either of the Bill & Ted films
I finally saw the second Bill & Ted movie a few months ago. Good stuff. It occurred to me that Dude, Where's My Car? owes a lot to those films.

Young Guns remind me of Young Riders, which I loved! I would be ascared to rewatch that!

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Dude Where's My Car? was an unexpected and fun surprise.
I caught Legend of Billie Jean Davies last week, another childhood fave, and now I hate it. Fair is fair? WTF kinda message is that? Although, now I get why they had the young Christian Slater get shot, because that's only fair, right? Totally stupid movie to me now. Pat Benetar still rocks, though.

River's Edge
I must have watch that movie a bazillion times in high school. I crushed on creepy Crispin Glover even!
