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.
Um, I saw that in the theatre last week and my response was "Huh? Didn't think the movie was that popular to deserve an anniversary release...."
The only way to win is to not play.

you shouldn't have magical Mayan artifacts AND aliens.

So in all of our animation talk last week, it occured that i had never seen Cars from the beginning. I always came in shortly after he destroys the road in Radiator Springs.
OMG the beginning is HIGH-larious! Click and Clack! And so, going through the credits, I am cracking up at all of the real race car drivers that lent their voices! Fuh-Knee!! That stuff alone boosted it up there.
KA-CHOW!
In viral marketing news, something Batman-y will be going on tonight at 10 EST in NYC & Chicago. If you're into that kind of thing.
Going to see the Hellboy 2 preview tonight! Whee!
I couldn't figure out what that viral thing was - did you have to sign up to find out? (And it took forever to load.)
I'll spoiler this in case.
