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.
I just think you're freakin' out 'cause you have to fight someone prettier than you.

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.

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

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.

In the defence of the pilot, he claimed he'd had two lessons.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG, Jess, that was brilliant.

Random tidbits on Monty Python (as I write up a Terry Gilliam piece):
The Pythons were shockingly well adapted and successful in their early lives. Terry Gilliam was freakin' Prom King and voted Most Likely to Succeed. Terry Jones was Head Boy at his school. So was Idle (though he was stripped of that title for watching an X movie.) Cleese was a star pupil, winning a prize in English and excelling at cricket and boxing. Graham Chapman finished medical school but never practiced.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
You saw the recent documentary, right?

The Lawyer's version or something on IFC? (Sundance?) I saw a tidbit of it.
