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.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

when it sounded like Bale had a lisp,

Doesn't Bale actually have a lisp? Or is that the Welsh accent trying to break through the American accent?

(Haven't seen TDK yet, but did watch Batman Begins last night.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

i was suitable horrified, but yeah. i think it was the delivery of the whole thing...

Heh, no, I agree that the delivery calls for laughter. He's the Joker, after all. Part of me wanted to laugh, but part of me was just trying to imagine the physics of it. Just the physical force with which he had to have pushed the guy's head down to IMPALE IT ON THE ERASER END OF A PENCIL. Ergh.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Doesn't Bale actually have a lisp?

Dunno, but his Bruce Wayne doesn't-- didn't.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

TDK: I was wondering about the physics of the pencil disappearance as well. I finally decided that it must have gone into the guy's eye.

I didn't think of that, Jon. The Joker must have really good aim.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Jon's assumption was mine.

I saw Hellboy. I need to go back and read the whitefont, but eh. I mean, the story, in the abstract, was fine, but it was predictable, and I like the characters, but they're (apparently) not that compelling to me. It was very pretty. Although I did have extenuating circumstances on watching, so, in other circumstances, I might have been more than "eh".

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Bale accused of roughing up his mother and sister:

move out and draw fire

On a totally different topic, we were so sick of the few Mallory movies we have that we plunked down $3 for the Eragon DVD. I hadn't been able to watch it for more than 10 minutes on an airplane, but we thought, "Hey, dragons, Mal will watch it."

20 minutes in, he came and got me: "Mom, can I have a different movie? This one is bad. It is really so bad."

Hey. New board.

I just watched Shadow of the Vampire. It was not as cool as I'd hoped.

Because books.

Mal clearly has taste.

I loved Shadow of the Vampire ! I actually own it.
