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.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I find it hard to go dark to light, because dark takes a lot over me and I cannot enjoy the light myself, but YBMV.

Yeah, I think after Dark Knight you won't get a lot out of Burn After Reading. I'd go with that one first if you can. Wall-E (which I haven't seen) might be enough to hold its own, though.

Sitting next to Sophia. However...

The evening of watching Taxi Driver followed by Breakfast at Tiffanys on a date has haunted me for years.

made me laugh out loud.

I'm sorry.

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

I think the way Wall-e starts out and builds has the power to follow Dark Knight but the short subject Presto in between will be awkward.

It may also cause you to nose your soda if you're drinking one, so forewarned.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

It was sort of "Let me put you through emotional rauma, then lighten the mood. Now let's make out."

Criterion has a new website, now with the ability to watch streaming film (mostly for a fee.)

I wish they were on demand as opposed to streaming. My tsetse fly-like attention span means that I often watch things in more than one sitting.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I seem to have somehow started a rumour there's going to be a Buffy movie.

Uhm, well done me.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

OMG!!!! BUFFY MOVIE! BUfFy N AnGle 4EvAH!!! OMG!!!@!

Er. Hee. Anyway, a friend mentioned that he heard they are actually making a movie of "Machete" (faux-trailer in the "Grindhouse" flick.)

Anyone know if this is true? Because that trailer made me laugh and laugh and laugh, and I would totally go see "Machete."

Mr. Scola’s wardrobe by Botany 500

Robert Rodriguez says he wants to, but right now it looks like he's busy making Sin City sequels.

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

Just watched Spirited Away. Can you believe I almost punked out because the spirits were too gross? But Sen kept me in, and I was utterly charmed by the end.
