I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

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.

My John Cusack emotions have been flip flopping with every post. I just don't know where I stand. It was so much easier when he was just a cypher for Lloyd Dobler.

Okay, reading the Proust questionnaire made me throw up in my mouth a little.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

It's not the Lunchpail Schmoe Questionnaire now is it?

Q: So, uh...what're you doing Friday?

John Cusack: Oh, you know, I'm just going to lounge around and re-read the collected works of Sartre while listening to my Soothing Ocean Sounds CD. Then I'll indulge in a little Transcendental Meditation and write an essay on Moder Shamanism in the Internet Age.

Q: Yeah. No, really...what're you doing?

JC: Um. Probably drinking a twelve-pack of Heineken and masturbating to myself in the mirror.

Q: Same for Saturday?

JC: Yeah.

Q: I think this interview is over.

JC: Yeah. Okay, thanks.

Q: I'm not shaking your hand. Get the fuck out.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Okay, this is cracking me up. (I didn't even know you could leave comments on Rotten Tomatoes! But apparently DH has a secret vendetta against Edward Norton that I was previously unaware of.)

And, Jess, we know who wins here. @@

Hey. New board.

I'll stand by my "Mission to Mars is brilliant satire" stance, but since I haven't seen it since it was in theatres I can't do much to defend it except cross my arms and pout defiantly.

I have a friend who is currently using this stance on Speed Racer. So much so that I may overcome negative reviews and see it.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Finally made it to Mother of Tears (last night of a one week run). Haven't quite processed yet. Will post more later (though I don't know who will be interested - I'm not sure if even Suspiria fans will want to see it). I'm actually on the positive side of the spectrum with it, but there were...issues (and I'm not talking about the extreme violence against women stuff - with Dario Argento, that's a given, along with extreme violence against men, children, reality, etc.). All I'll say right now is I agree with the online reviewer who summed it up as "bloody as fuck!".

The comments (so far) on Salon's review of The Happening are priceless:
