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.

Saw Burn After Reading last night (courtesy of juliana). It's certainly not the best Coen brothers ever, but it is laugh-out-loud funny.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Though Brad Pitt's character really only worked because it was Brad Pitt. Still loved him though.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm so glad to hear this -- I'm not expecting best ever, but I've been looking forward to a new funny Coen. And then the reviews I've seen have been pretty meh. I'll happily take laugh-out-loud funny without expecting too much more.

Uh, no. Not for me. Maybe a smack upside the head, but I'd save the face-punching for Malkovich's character.
The Coens are just a wee bit too in love with their cleverness and machinations for the film to work, but it's still fun. I'm glad I saw it for free, though.

Probably going to see that tonight.
I saw Tropic Thunder a couple of weeks ago. Have we discussed that here? I didn't think that the elements that caused all the controversy were really all that. But Tom Cruise (who I had no idea was even in it) and Matthew Mchoweveryouspellit totally stole the show.

I think he would be, if it wasn't Brad Pitt. 'Cause Brad Pitt playing this goofball? Comedy gold.

And juliana, I was wrong, Burn After Reading is not playing at my local theater this weekend. Instead, it's the film that shall not be named.
Le sigh.
