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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I was just coming here to post that, Pete. It was cancer.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Reports are saying he'd had Multiple Myeloma for some years. Sad news.

Hey. New board.
Or Quasimodo as singing and dancing.
... I love the Disney version of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. No, it's nothing like the original story. Don't care. Still awesome. It has a nice combination of The Emperor's New Groove style pure punny humor ("Achilles! Heel!"), pretty decent music (the opening number is gorgeous, and I have a weakness for "Hellfire," if nothing else because it's the scariest villain song in Disney) and compelling characters, true to their originals or not.
(And it's a bit more like the original story than, say, The Little Mermaid at least)

I recall liking that song a lot too. Similarly, I really like "Savages" from Pocahontas, if nothing else.

Hey. New board.
Apparently Roger Ebert liked it too, for what that's worth.
It's actually a little scary how often I completely agree with Ebert.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I registered a domain and will be putting up a site called kidsfilmcritic.com. As soon as I get around to it. Those udders will be getting a bashing.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Ebert has always been my film critic of choice, and not just because he's my home town boy. I find that even if I disagree with him, he descirbes his viewing experience in such a way that I know if I'll like a movie he did not.
