Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

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.

I have never seen Old Yeller, Red Ferns or Yearling...for all the reasons mentioned.
Same here. I don't feel I need to put myself through that, for movies that I probably won't be that interested in anyway.
Besides, if I feel that I need to watch a movie and cry, I've got loads of other choices. Edward Scissorhands, Big Fish, Lilo and Stitch ...
(I LOVE Big Fish. It's one of my favorite movies ever. But I don't watch it very often, because it turns me into a weepy mess.)

Lilo and Stitch is a safe cry-trigger because it ends well. So I can wallow in emotion knowing I'll get to snicker and smile as I leave the theater, instead of in a melancholy haze. I don't drink enough absinthe to properly appreciate melancholy hazes.

Yep, same for me. And the same goes for Big Fish.

I suppose I do, but I still don't really appreciate melancholy hazes.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Confession: Bolt made me weepy. I knew I was being manipulated, damn it, and I still got weepy.
But The Boy did, too, so it was okay.

Lilo & Stitch, on my list of all time favorites.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, what Oscar-ish movie should I see tomorrow? Benjamin Button? Doubt? Revolutionary Road? Something else?

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I really like the stage show of Doubt, and they seems to be cleaving closely to it. It is not, however, happy-fun or terribly uplifting.

I thought Doubt was quite good but not great. With the movies that are out right now I think you can do better.
Oh, hah. After seeing Doubt my sister and I were talking and she was all "I really was more in the mood for feel-good kind of thing, you know, like Milk."
Me: boggle
Her: What? He gets elected right?
Me: Um, yes. And then assasinated.
