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.

What Calli said. It wasn't mentioned explicitly in the script, but KH sold it.

I'm picturing Susan Vance looking around and saying to herself "Now, where's a fuddy-duddy I can liven up? Aha, a museum! Splendid!"

I couldn't watch Bringing Up Baby, despite all the wonderful things I heard about it. The ditz character is too painful to watch.

This. I love, love, love screwball comedies. But I really don't like Bringing Up Baby.

I love Gracie Allen, the ditz' ditz, but she always gives the impression of a razor sharp wit underneath the fluff. Lucy Ricardo is just a needy child who wants a Daddy.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Georgia Engel (Georgette from The Mary Tyler Moore Show) pulled off the "I'm only playing a ditz" bit wonderfully in the old Dean Martin roasts. She'd say that the writers had some "zingers" for her to say about the celebrity. She'd then deliver a pretty mild joke, then apologize to the celebrity with something far wittier and more biting than what the writers supposedly gave her.

Ah, Gracie Allen. You are missed still.

Ah, Gracie Allen. You are missed still.

She showed up in the Make 'Em Laugh series on PBS re: American comedy, and she was a joy to watch. It's a pity she didn't last as long as George.

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

Oh my God.

There is a sequel to Crank. Crank 2: High Voltage.

This is the description:

Chelios faces a Chinese mobster who has stolen his nearly indestructible heart and replaced it with a battery-powered ticker that requires regular jolts of electricity to keep working.

The first movie sounded like it was probably really fun and ridiculous, but this reaches new heights. I want to have a nearly indestructible heart.
