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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

But I'd never seen him play anyone who wasn't in some way morally conflicted or suspect

I'd say that in R&GAD, he's not particularly morally conflicted nor suspect, but rather kind of an innocent fool.

(I've been an Oldman fangirl since Sid and Nancy. It's kind of sad.)

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

Gary Oldman is in The Unborn ! WTF? So are Idris Elba, Carla Gugino, C.S. Lee, and James Remar. People sure like David S. Goyer.

"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

Well, the Batman movies did raise his star considerably from his Dollman vs. the Demonic Toys days.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Bride Wars?

Just. Don't. It's every worst Bridezilla cliche you can think of, crammed into 90-ish minutes. It just left me wondering why everyone doesn't elope.

Oh, and Candice Bergen has had WAY too much plastic surgery.

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

I did love the headline for this weekend's returns...

That would have made the movie worth watching.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Has anyone else here seen Gran Torino?

I liked it a lot, and would have loved it except for a few quibbles (some minor, one major).

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

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

I'd say that in R&GAD, he's not particularly morally conflicted nor suspect, but rather kind of an innocent fool.

Very, very true, and my bad on forgetting that one. Roth and Oldman really need to do another movie. Or a sketch show for BBC. Or something, cause they were such a great team in that. But still so far away from the concept of Jim Gordon, which is probably why I didn't think of it.
