Buffistas

I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

Closed Film and TV threads

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 thought Karen Gillan did a great job as Nebula, personally.

Phew. I am back on the internet, having finally seen GotG!

Re: rankings...

1. CATWS
2. CATFA

3. IM3
4. GotG (depending on mood, could swap out with the above)
5. Avengers
6. IM
7. IM2
8. Thor

I haven't seen Thor 2, and I only have the novelization of the Hulk one (don't ask, because I can't explain.)

You like Iron Man 3 better than Iron Man (the first)?

How is that even possible in our space time continuum?

Stop defying the laws of physics with your whackadoodle taste.

It is possible!

If they could retroactively insert Don Cheadle into Iron Man, though, it'd be totally different. Well, maybe.

But I think that the subject matter of IM3, and the idea that we create our own demons, is just really interesting.

The free movies I can get this week include "Oz the Great & Powerful". Worth watching? Or ~90 minutes of my life I will never get back?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Use that 90 minutes for a dental visit. Would be more enjoyable.

She's not the only one. Of course, I didn't think the first one was the best thing since sliced bread, and RDJ's performance in 3 dialed the smugness down from 11 to maybe a 6, which made Tony a lot easier to sympathize with.

I need to see it again, but I'm pretty sure I like IM3 better than the first, because of the themes of dealing with your personal demons, and learning that when you take away your armor and crutches, you can STILL deal with those demons.

Plus, giant bunny.

It is fun to watch Tony remember he was a badass before the armor and still is. The montage in the hardward store is delightful.

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

These are the reasons that IM3 is my favorite of the three.

And we ALL come out of the woodwork.

Plus! RHODEY SWASHBUCKLING!

I have a soft spot in my cold, dark heart for IM2, too, but I recognize that it's objectively not very good.
