Having just seen BT as Falstaff at the SF Opera, I'll vouch that he can do miles.
Take me, sir. Take me hard.

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.

A Hobbit-movie-related question: Can you kill a dragon with a yew bow and a black arrow?
I love it when people use MATH to answer these fannish questions!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Reading that just reminds me how much PJ changed about that whole situation for the movies.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
My brother has finally bestowed upon us a Christmas list. On it are most of the Miyazaki/Ghibli canon in DVD format. I was looking at the Disney releases, and some people were hating on the dub-translation*.
In people's considered opinions, are these people full of shit or no?

If they hate the dubbed version, they can always just choose subtitles in the DVD menu. That said, I think the Disney voice casting for the ones I've seen dubbed are quite good.
