Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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.

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

If westerns were about the west, then I wouldn't capitalise them. But it's an extension of the West to me, so I keep what's there. It's more important to me than paralleling the other genres--if a genre was named after a country, I'd keep it capitalised too.

Has anyone seen "Pirate Radio"? I am at the theater with TCG waiting for it to start.

Oh my ever loving god. I'm so in love with that guy. I really need to rent Cat's Meow again. Not because it's a good movie, per se, but Eddie's Charlie is so, incredibly hot.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

2012: a really bad movie.

Even the special effects are a bit rubbish. The landscapes disappearing into the earthquakes are clearly models. Meh.

I liked the many, many near-misses, though. That is why I go to see disaster movies.

My annoyance with the 2012 previews was the inability of the airplane pilot to find the climb controls so they can get above all the collapsing buildings.
