I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

EVERYTHING is Joss's penis.

Apparently modern literature has reached the point where any power is a phallic symbol, because penises are all that and then some.

There is a point at which crit becomes entirely useless, and that Avengers thread looks about ten pages past it.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Also any object that is longer than it is wide, or any object that is wider than it is long.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

If it's longer than it's wide it's a phallus
If it's longer than it's wide it's a phallus
If it's not longer than it's wide, simply turn it on its side
If it's longer than it's wide, it's a phallus

Okay--I started to skim the Something Awful movie threads, and now my head is dizzy. What is the poster ancestry of SA?

The sections I've frequented seem to be a core of former military with migrations from Myspace and 4Chan accreting around them.

Hey. New board.

I posted on SA for a while. I... don't know what it's about. I still visit a private board populated primarily by SAers (or former SAers) and I... kind of hate the posters.

Some threads get all intellectual, others are all "hehe boobs"

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

phallic symbols and authorial intent in The Avengers

Hawkeye's arrows, on the other hand....

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Hawkeye's arrows, on the other hand....

And now I'm laughing uncontrollably about Loki catching and *grabbing* one of Hawkeye's arrows, whereupon Hawkeye's arrow *exploded*.

That Betsy ditty makes me want to cry with its truth.

Skyfall trailer: [link]

It does look like it might be one of those scenarios where there's at least a frame of every set piece in the trailer, but hey! They look like cool set pieces.
