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.

LIke Christopher Lee saying, roughly, "I'm an actor, people pay me to act."

Sally Field was once asked if she felt any shame about having played the Flying Nun. She replied. "I got paid for that role. Its the people who watched it for nothing who have something to be ashamed of." To tell you the truth I was one of the people who watched for nothing. I was eleven. What can I say?

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

I'm watching Charade a bit at a time. Audrey Hepburn is so darling she makes my toes curl. I could swear they filmed in the same building where I changed money on a high school trip to Paris in 1986.

I can say I loved the thought of being able to use a hat to fly. How much awesomeness was that? Better than an umbrella!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Its the people who watched it for nothing who have something to be ashamed of.

What charming contempt. Was this before or after she was surprised people really liked her?

Why the fuck is Pixar making Cars 2? That's their least appealing movie.

I want Incredibles 2, dammit!

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

I want Incredibles 2, dammit!

Surprisingly, I don't agree with this. I kind of like them leaving it as it is. I don't want a sequel to potentially fuck up what I feel was damn near a perfect film.

I don't care. I just want their design team to make another supervillain lair. Plus, at least throw me an Edna Mode short.

Also, Cars sucked.

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

Also, Cars sucked.

What? No it didn't! It wasn't Pixar's best work and I'm confused as hell about why it needs a sequel, but in no way did it suck.
