Buffistas

Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Finally got to see The Avengers for the second time (missed the final post-credits scene due to Matilda's not-quite-6-year-old's bladder, but there's always YouTube), heard Loki's pitiful whimper (really, Joss played the Loki-begins-monologing/someone-else-goes-"Bored now" card so many times, and it was ridiculously funny every single time; my only gripe is that it didn't happen even more), appreciated the Pepper/Tony banter even more than the first time, caught a lot more of the underplayed but total badassery of Black Widow, was rewarded for dragging my willing but unenthused dad by hearing him almost choke on his uvula laughing the entire time, and had a bonus Buffista sighting! East Bayista Bridget S had never seen it before and was all happy that she was getting one last chance for a first viewing on a big screen.

I seriously could have sat in that theater all afternoon watching it over and over. DAMN, I'm glad I went.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

le nubian, nope. You have it backwards.

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

FYI, Avengers Labor Day Weekend reappearance lasts through Thursday. So you haven't missed your chance to see it big screen again.

P-C,

so are you telling me the imdb listing is wrong?

Well, it doesn't appear to be showing anywhere nearby, anyway. Phooey.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

so are you telling me the imdb listing is wrong?

Correct. I don't know if we're still spoilerfonting Batman Begins, but just in case: Moviewise, it was apparently a fake-out. Ken Watanabe's character was a figurehead; when Ducard confronts Wayne in his manor, he reveals that he is the real Ra's al-Ghul.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

a-ha. That is what I thought, but the imdb thing fucked me up.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Damn, now I wish I'd gone.

We saw it tonight; 5th time for me, 3rd for Tim. My god, Chris Evans' ASS. And Jeremy Renner's arms. Where is that picture of Renner with rope? Did I bookmark it?

t edit Oh, yes: [link] Hello.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

6th time for me tonight, still the funnest. This time the new thing I spotted was that they made the Hulk's hair gray where Mark Ruffalo's is. Patterning the Hulk on the actor's appearance and doing motion capture with him really made a difference over the other two movies, I think. He seemed pretty real instead of like a figure from a videogame cut and pasted into the scene.

I watched Natasha's fight with Clint more closely this time around, and they had her pulling a lot of moves like biting and knocking him into objects rather than just out-punching him. I approve.
