Picardo also has a small role as the fire inspector in Get Crazy which startled me greatly the last time I saw it.
Willow: Yes. Hi. You must be Angel's handsome, yet androgynous, son. Connor: It's Connor. Willow: And the sneer's genetic. Who knew?

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.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Saw Slap Shot in college and re-watched it recently. Many more serious elements, fewer comic elements than I remember.
Game Show Network ran two old episodes of What's My Line over the weekend -- one with Newman alone, the other with Newman and Joanne Woodward. A very entertaining show in its low-key way.
And TCM is running an all-day tribute to Newman next Sunday. I've set up the Tivo for Exodus and Sweet Bird of Youth.

In case you were wondering, though, which I know you all weren't, Slap Shot II is excruciating even when you fast forward through all but the CKR scenes. (Which does at least take it down to about 20 minutes.)

Finally read this week's EW with the Newman tribute. I usually think they give short shrift to the greats and are just not very good with that sort of thing, but this was very well done. Although no mention of the hamburger line, which I've always loved him for.

Hey. New board.
*blinks at article above*
Since when is there a White Queen in Alice in Wonderland? She's a Through the Looking Glass character! And she wants Alice to slay a Bandersnatch? Like, the one from The Jabberwocky?
Between this and the images showing Alice on what appears to be a pirate ship, I am not feeling too comfortable about this movie.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
No - just the Queen of Hearts.

I've joined the crack team of bloggers at The Screengrab, which is Nerve.com's movie page. My first post is up now. It ain't much, but it's a start. Warning: Nerve.com is primarily a purveyor of the prurient, so your job may be less than thrilled about you clicking on that page. Mine doesn't seem to care.

OK, no excuse then.
