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.

Possibly related to why I thought Lucky the Leprechaun needed to shank a few kids to get them to stop trying to steal his shit.

See, this is my problem with the Trix bunny. I don't think the kids were being arbitrarily mean; I think they were performing a citizen's arrest. Damn bunny never seemed to want to *pay* for his fruitily delicious part of a well-balanced breakfast, he just wanted to *take* it.
Fuckin' bunny throws some bills around, those kids would be pelting him with boxes of faux-fruit sugar balls.

a) This is SO TOTALLY GLOSSING OVER the racism inherent in singling out his bunniness every time they snatched sugary bliss from him, and b) You mother never taught you to share?

Ann, that's a ferret.
Which totally avoids the question of whether faux-fruit sugar balls can be part of a well-balanced breakfast.
Unless you're carrying the bowl on your nose.

megan needs to see more Miyazaki and Aardman.
I have seen all of Miyazaki up through Porco Rosso (thanks to Scola), I meant to keep going chronologically but haven’t got around to it. But all I’ve seen fall before your 1995 cut-off. I looked at your link and realized I’ve seen the following non-Pixar:
Shrek
Wallace and Gromit: Curse of the WereRabbit
Chicken Run
Lilo and Stitch
The Iron Giant
Shrek 2
The Emperor's New Groove
The Simpsons Movie
Antz
Pooh’s Heffalump Movie (courtesy of my niece)
Ice Age (yes, I'm ranking this below the Heffalump movie)
Of those, I remember liking the first three quite a bit. I saw both Lilo & Stitch and The Iron Giant based on buffista love for them. I was underwhelmed in both cases. I think I’m just not a big animation fan.
Of course, I adored Les Triplettes de Belleville and Persepolis, but don’t really count either as kids fare.
ETA: I fear Sean watched far too many prison movies as a child.

a) It would make no difference if he was a bunny or a toucan or a tiger or a naval captain.
b) Not with fuckin' bunnies, she didn't.

Oh god, the animated movie list. The top spot on my list is a three-way tie between Lilo and Stitch, Monsters Inc., and Kiki's Delivery Service.
After that, then there's Toy Story 2 (even if it makes me sob my eyes out at a certain point), The Incredibles, Finding Nemo ... and why the hell don't I own Emperor's New Groove, yet?

I'd pay cash money to see that on YouTube.
Well, there was that Robot Chicken where they cast the Trix rabbit as Pacino in Scarface (basically). Of course, he ended up being denied his Trix in that too...
