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.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Woo-hoo! Do I get a shiny toy prize?

I guess I'm gonna have to put Devil's Backbone in my Netflix queue, pronto.

"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

It's really very very good. Similar in sensibility (if bleaker in tone) to Pan's Labyrinth.

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

Some days, Rorschach's mask just refused to look scary.

I'm having another of those "how the *&%$ did this end up in my queue?" moments. Is anyone familiar with Berlin Alexanderplatz? I thought it was going to be a comedy and for some reason I think I put it in my queue because a sitcom I watch now is based on it. Perhaps someone was messing with the audience in one of my DVD commentaries. I managed to slog through part 1 but I could find no sympathy for the protagonist. Is there any reason I should continue with it? Does the series continue to focus on Franz?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ha! My Netflix "why????" for the weekend was merely Graveyard Shift.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Is that the one with Ewan McGreggor? I really liked that one!

No! Maybe I thought it was. It was a dumb Stephen King movie with Brad Dourif as highlight.

I'm watching Bad Boys II now, and there are not words to describe how much I love this franchise. No, it's not quality cinema. But they can do power shots like nobody's business. Hell, that was half my delight with Hot Fuzz.

I said, I love Graveyard Shift! but then I realized I was thinking of Night Shift.

Bad Boys II

I wasn't totally sold on it until they started throwing corpses out of the truck to slow down their pursuers.
