Just saw WALL-E tonight. Absolutely loved it. Would sob joyfully again.
Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

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 mom never goes to the movies, but we got her to see Wall E based on our gushing. She loved it, and it was just as good the second time. Actually, it was better because I wasn't as worried about anything so I could pay more attention. Oh and the short made the DH laugh just as much this time..he's so goofy.
GC's ranking is mine except I would put Cars under Ratatouille and Toy Story 2 4th.

Always Anti-fascist!
I really like Dan... Hated DC stand-up, but I guess he acted in the movie.

Also, Netflix sent me an awesome documentary "The Hobart Shakespeareans." Everyone that cares about kids should see it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

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

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I just got back from seeing The Hulk, finally.
I liked it, not loved. I did like the cameos and the humor, what little there was, but the Hulk is not a fun character, he's a sad, scary character, like Frankenstien's monster. Norton's Banner was good and I liked Tyler's Betty. William Hurt was ok and I thought Tim Roth was wasted.
tomorrow: Wall-e!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I thought I heard that a clever editor created the 1989 "trailer" to mimic the new one. See, e.g., comments here: [link]

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda
For those who have seen Wall-E: Did anyone else come away with a healthy dose of overweight-unconcerned-planet-wasting liberal guilt? While still enjoying the story about the cute robots? Or was that just me? Cause I left feeling like I should go plant a tree, and then throw my TV out the window. (Or rather, find some way to recycle it, I guess...)
