So who's seen Lemora, or Paperhouse or Reeker or Dust Devil?
I saw Paperhouse years ago. It's the original cinematic source of that iconic "painted to blend into the wall" image, isn't it?
Wash: I mean, I'm the one she swore to love, honor and obey. Mal: Listen... She swore to obey? Wash: Well, no, not...

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.

Paperhouse was based on one of my childhood favorite books, The Magic Pencil aka Marianne Dreams in the UK, so of course I saw it in the theatre, not to mention have watched a couple times since.
It made me start drawing houses and furniture in my notebooks, but I never did find any of them coming alive... which given what happens in the movie, is probably for the best.

I'm not actually sure what happened in Underworld: Rise of the Lycans. I remember lots of shirtless Lucian, which seems to have obscured everything else in my memory.

I'll go out on a limb and guess cheese-tastic dialogue occurred.

But if it's being delivered by Bill Nighy, who cares how overblown it is?

Would you believe that Crank is on USA network tonight? It'll be cut to ribbons, I expect, but it'll at least give me a little taste.

I'm not sure the movie CRANK and "taste" have anything in common. IJS.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
What, seriously? Huh. But I don't think that's a movie I want to watch cut to ribbons.
