Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Alan Tudyk's getting good reviews for his work in Death at a Funeral.

Yes, and for those who might be interested he apparently gets naked too.

Always Anti-fascist!

Okay, this is dumb, but I wonder about it a lot so I'll post it. You know the Geico commercial where the caveman spots the caveman poster in the airport while the angsty Adult Alternative plays? It totally reminds me of a movie, but I'm not sure which one. So the thought's always like "That reminds me of...?" Which film am I thinking of?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I'm going to be completely unhelpful by admitting that I have no idea, but at least it's not just you -- that ad totally pings me too, and I can't for the life of me remember whether it's a specific scene from some specific film or just a mashup in my brain of airport scenes from a billion movies. But, yes, I always see it and go, "Hey, it's that... damn, I have no idea what."

The song is Remind Me by Röyksopp. My google-fu couldn't find it listed on any movie soundtrack, though.

"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 reminds me of that scene in Deep Rising when Treat Williams, Famke Janssen, and Kevin J. O'Connor are in the elevator with "The Girl from Ipanema" playing on muzak.

Well, the Geiko cavman-at-the-airport commercial does have some airy techno music for its Muzak.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Funnily enough I think that is the Muzak arrangement of the Royskopp song.

Have spent the entire day watching bad horror flicks on tv. I'm actually quite entertained. Final Destination 2, on right now, is practically a live action Road Runner cartoon - ETA, make that a cross between Road Runner and Itchy and Scratchy - , while Bride of Chucky was surreally bizarre.

L&O's Kathryn Erbe being in...crap, what was it...something about Echoes...with Kevin Bacon pretty much puts paid to that game for all time, given the way the show cycles through every actor working.

Stir of Echoes. Thanks, P-C! That one wasn't actually all that bad.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
