I was in the bookstore and they have (1) DVDs of some of the original "Dark Shadows" (includng "The Best of Barnabas") and (2) an entire series of books by Lara Parker (the original Angelique ... from Martinique ... who was in quite a pique).
I seen you without your clothes on before. Never thought I'd see you naked.

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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Oh! While watching the Avengers, I had a quote pop into my head that pretty much only Buffistas (if anyone) would appreciate: when Thor gets ejected in the Hulk cage from the ship and tumbles towards the earth , I immediately thought, "Nobody likes a blond(e) in a hamster ball."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'd like to see Burton do Star Trek.

If we're talking inappropriate for Burton, in erika's vein I give you James Elroy.
In another vein - J.G. Ballard.

Here's a long piece on the making of Thelma & Louise. Interesting to learn all the people who might have been cast: Jodi Foster, Michelle Pfeiffer, Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Charlie Jane did not like Dark Shadows:
There are few movies as boring as Dark Shadows. Not even, say, a 10-hour Andy Warhol movie about clams opening. This film offers such a high level of boredom, it approaches a mental discipline, like meditation. Perhaps in the course of watching this film, your mind will expand to the vanishing point of nirvana. Perhaps not.
In other news, I've been watching trailers for Laika Studios (Corline) new movie ParaNorman for a while and been cautiously intrigued. Then I found out my friend Elizabeth Cody wrote the book!
Wacky.

Speaking of JG Ballard, Frank, I bet you've never seen Thirteen to Centaurus.

3rd time for Avengers last night. The fun does not diminish with repeated viewings.
