I thought Mrs. Robinson was the archetype. The original one, anyway.
It's going to be a while before Shia LeBoef is *not* that kid from Holes for me.
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

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.

I think Shia LaBoeuf is quite talented and has done a good job getting out from under the Disney umbrella. (Plus he's very cute, and I'm young enough that I don't have to feel that dirty for saying that.)
I think I've figured out why I had such a poor reaction to Indy... this movie is like Indy fanfic, and Indy's not my fandom.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
1. Shia La Boeuf isn't actually that young. I look at him and I see late 20s and the scrawniness is a permanent feature, not a bug of adolescence. Wasn't there a bit of a scandale about it back when he was on Disney, because his IMDB listing had him as like 15 when he was actually considerably older? It appears that age-fuzziness persists, because he's theoretically 21 right now, which I'm pretty sure is a lie.
2. You're not a cougar unless you (a) could reasonably -- not just theoretically -- have given birth to the target in question; (b) have a tiger-print themed bedroom; (c) don't know what appropriate cleavage would be for an ordinary trip to the grocery store; and (d) actually make rawr noises, not for the funny of it, in public.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I like Nutty's definition of cougar, if only because I can hide behind the tiger-print requirement forever.

I thought Shia was all wrong for HJIII. HJIII should be lankier.
IJS.
I saw Ironman at a matinee and then Indy in the afternoon and I think Indy suffered by comparison. I wish that they hadn't gone with the space aliens. Also, jilli weren't there undead protectors? I mean, who were those people who were skeletons and then flesh and were lurking in the gravesites, if not undead protectors ?
I have to say seeing Cate Blanchett playing a psychic communicator brought a strange twisted Galadriel vibe to it.

Agreed on your last point, sumi. I kept waiting for "All shall love me, and despair" in the Natasha accent. Hee!

sumi, in regard to your first section of whitefont, I think they were just wearing skull masks, but were actually living protectors. Someone hit one and the mask shattered, revealing a person underneath.

Yeah, so far Iron Man is still my main squeeze movie of the summer.

Not that I can find on Google.
