I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Never have I been so torn between hopeless laughter and a massive case of THE MOTTS. Dear lord.

WILLY FIGHT!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

THE MOTTS

I'd never heard this term before and had to look it up. Is it a contraction of Michael Scott?

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

It's from the applesauce, I believe.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

quoted from Gerard Way's blog entry at the My Chemical Romance site:

The best way to describe "the motts" is like this: Do you remember the first time you watched a bad daytime interview show, like Springer or something, and someone is just making a total ass out of themselves, doing or saying something very uncomfortable?

Or when you are sitting through a high school talent show and all of a sudden you feel embarrassed for your classmate who is singing "The Greatest Love Of All" by Whitney Houston?

You sometimes have to cover your eyes, or look away.

That's "the motts".

eta: The term was apparently coined while watching this Motts Applesauce commercial.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think I now have a(nother) brain injury.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I started following Simon Pegg on Twitter and when I saw the Hot Fuzz slash, I laughed until I cried.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

How is The Motts different from our Watch From the Hall?

Because books.

How is The Motts different from our Watch From the Hall?

It's not. It's just what Gerard Way calls it.
