Steph,
the girl is a lot more badassed in this version than the original.
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

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.

I think technically (in Trek terms) they de-evolved to an amphibian-ish state. It was a long time ago, but the upshot was that while in this state it turns out they had mated.

I had successfully purged it from my memory and you just brought it back.
No pie for you.

My work here is done.
Although to be fair, there's an awful lot of Voyager I HAVE purged successfully. Not that though.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
In the first True Grit movie, the girl was played by a young woman. Was she playing a girl, or did they change her character to be a woman?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
For those of you who remember how gracious, cool and stylish Vidal Sassoon was on Shear Genius, there's a documentary about his (quite interesting) life.
He was in an orphanage from ages 5-11, fought as a soldier and then, of course, revolutionized hairstyling and more.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We decided to try and watch Twilight last night. The DH lasted right up until Edward told Bella he'd been watching her sleep, at which point the DH said "This is horrifying and we have to turn it off right now."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
D actually enjoys the Twilight movies. The special efects are pretty good.
I forget the name of the actress playing Maddy in the new True Grit but she was 13 during filming. Her mom made her a costume to wear to her audition.
