I'm amused that the very thing that most people hate about the movie is the ting I like the most about it.
Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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 else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I have a fondness for Alien 3. I saw it in the theatre here when I was a kid. I may not even have seen the first two movies at the time.
And on a David Fincher note, I'm off to see The Social Network !

Ha! Oh, that's brilliant.
But "Rocks fall, everyone dies" doesn't work as the beginning of a movie.
Yeah, that's why I don't like Alien 3. Newt was my favorite, dammit.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Does anyone use runpee.com? I guess I have a pretty stalwart bladder--I don't tend to pee at cinemas, period. But I went to peek at entries for two movies I've seen recently (Inception and Scott Pilgrim) and I would have been miffed at missing any of either of them. And I didn't even like Scott Pilgrim. I'm just a completist.

Wow, and I thought epileptic Elizabeth Berkeley sex was a thread killer. It's nothing compared to approving of murdering Newt off screen before the movie starts.
I think I'll blame ita's refusal to pee during movies for killing the thread.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I have wanted to use runpee but I always forget to look up the movie before we leave for the cinema.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, I have a bladder of iron from many road trips. So I never need to go during movies. But I`m a completist, too. I mean, I watch credits.

I watch credits while trying very hard not to think about my bladder.

I figure those people have mothers, and I'm used to tuning out my bladder(In fact that may be my one surefire skill in the world...too bad I can't use it in job interviews.)
