Rock on, Sean, that's impressive.
Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness.
Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

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.

Shortly after I moved to LA, I pulled out my Thomas Guide and used it to follow along as I watched Speed, tracing the route of the bus. That movie is actually very faithful to LA geography. Although where the Red Line train bursts out of the ground at the end doesn't make a ton of sense, but the bus route is good.

Over on FB, one of P-C's friends called GotG "Marvel Farscape," which makes me need to see it RIGHT NOW. (I mean, I was planning to see it anyway, but we don't really have time until next weekend. We could maybe possibly we see a late movie tonight. Hmmm.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
"Farscape meets Avengers" is an apt description of the movie.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
That movie is actually very faithful to LA geography.
Yes it is, I've always considered it an LA movie. So many movies set in LA get it completely wrong.

This is genius in how perfectly apt it is.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I found GotG fun, but not up to the hype. Or even the previews. They were funnier.

I think I must be the only person in the universe who isn't interested in GotG, even with the hype and good reviews. Maybe because it skews too much on the goofy comedy side, it seems from the trailers, and I just don't go in for comedies, even on DVD, let alone the theatre?
I might go see it to listen to Vin Diesel, though, provided he has enough dialogue...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, phew. I was in danger of overhyping myself.
