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.

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

When I first got interested in cinema I would see a movie with someone I really liked in it and look them up in the video companion (no internet back then) and rent everything I could with them in it.

I went through a Bogart Phase, Ingrid Bergman, Robert Duvall, Audrey Hepburn, Sean Connery. Now I get interested in an actor, look them up and find I've already seen most of the stuff they've done. I have to wait to watch what they've got coming up next.

I'm sure there's stuff out there I'm missing, heck I still haven't seen Gone With the Wind. But I miss being able to discover a dozen films featuring someone I've just fallen in love with.

Oh, Aims - Harry Potter nude scene in film 6? (I need to reread HBP because I don't quite remember that.)

hip deep in pie

He's naked in 7, in the train station afterworld, but I don't remember him naked in 6.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ok - I'm all for gratuitous DR nekkidness in my presence, but it seems as though they're tossing it in there to maybe make up for making people wait another billion months for the damn movie or to profit off of Equus in some wierd way and that's irritating.

Where the hell in 6 is HP nekkid???

He was already naked in Goblet of Fire but he was too young and there were too many bubbles.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Also, Shirley Henderson acting pervy enough that those otherwise inclined to appreciate the view were probably put off.

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

To add insult to injury, EW has Harry Potter on the cover of their "Fall Movie Preview" double issue that arrived in my mailbox today.

Bah.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Just saw Tell No One and it was AMAZING. A thriller with a modern Hitchcock vibe. Beautifully acted--the leasd guy reminded me of Gene Hackman, int hat there wasn't a single showy moment, but there also wasn't a single moment that wasn't totally real. Go!
