Oh yeah, I read about that. It's done in an '80s, 8-bit style, right?

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.
Yep. It's awesomely addictive.
I love how you can beat up the mailbox and the fire hydrant but you can't jump and move forward at the same time.

Oooo, I just found out that Let the Right One In is playing in Memphis starting today. I did not expect the chance to see that, but may have to make a special trip now.
Let the Right One In is finally starting here this weekend as well. I think we're going this evening.
If you've ever enjoyed an embarassing movie for an embarassing reason, I'm going to recommend the Crushed Film Festival, over at Tomato Nation: [link] Sars and guests discuss movies they've watched (over and over again) for a certain someone.
And speaking of crushes, I'm currently watching The Year of Living Dangerously, and my god, Mel Gibson is still so beautiful. I mean, "still" in this movie, now that I'm way older than he is, not still today. Um. Of course the movie itself is also excellent.
I have watched many a horrid Clive Owen, Russell Crowe, Matthew MacFadyen, Ryan Gosling horror show, amongst many other wonderful men, and had to stop because it turns out there was a reason that none of these vehicles launched them into the limelight. Um, and then there was that Jeff Goldblum period, where I thought he was the sexiest thing to have ever existed (I blame "Mr. Frost" for that ... I wonder how that movie holds up now?).
I'm just shocked that anyone watched Boiler Room for Scott Caan. I mean, come for the Vin Diesel, stay for the Nicky Katt!
Loved Vin Diesel's character, only sad that he didn't get more screentime.
And because the recent discussion of Ladyhawke sent me back to the DVD, I rediscovered my Leo McKern love and am now watching Help! (although I think the last time I watched this movie I woke up with a black eye, although that experience doesn't taint my love for this movie).
