Any Bay Area-istas want to come see the new Xmen movie in Vallejo May 31 @5pm? My company is sponsoring a viewing, so it's cheap. I am not sure but I think I am probably limited to one guest. Profile address is good if anyone wants to trek out to the boonies.
Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Bwahahaha! The whole thing is good, but the last 15 seconds puts it over the top.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Hey, I have a little boy who's developed a interest in the Lego Movie, and is wont to burst out with "Everything is Awesome" with little provocation. He is also quite sensitive about violence. Is there anything in the Lego Movie that is likely to upset him?

There is one scene that I found very upsetting, but my kids didn't even blink at, where Lord Business forces Good Cop/Bad Cop to superglue his parents, and there is a Smeagol/Gollum conversation between his Good Cop and Bad Cop faces while it happens.
But like I said, my kids (6 and 3) didn't react to that scene at all, so it may be like the first five minutes of Finding Nemo where parents are cringing in their seats and kids are blissfully unaware that 500 babies die in that movie before the opening credits.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Jessica, that was the same scene (and only scene) I was going to mention.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
That was awful. Just awful.

Guess who's going to (FINALLY) see Only Lovers Left Alive today?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I can't wait to see what you think! I loved it.

I already have plans to go see it again on Monday, in the company of the Infamous BlueJay, ravenous fangirl of Hiddleston and SWINTON.
