Y'know, if Profit didn't always have a plan.
Profit is the plan. It's Phase 3.
Giles: I jump out of the circle, jump back in, and, and, shake my gourd. Buffy: Hey, I think I know this ritual. The ancient shamans were next called upon to do the Hokey-Pokey and to turn themselves around.

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.
Profit minus American Psycho equals Batman!
Ha!
I'll put it back on my list. Did you also see The Machinist? I hear he's doing another weight loss gig.

Huh, apparently, in San Francisco, it is illegal to buy or have in one’s possession a BB gun. So I guess my SIL will have to buy my brother's Christmas present for me.

I'm pretty sure you can get it in the East Bay or Daly City. I know I've seen pellet guns at Sporting Good stores in El Cerrito.

Oh yeah, it's just SF, where apparently BB guns are more illegal than real guns.
Of course, as an SF resident, it's still illegal for me to buy one.
Since I was mailing it directly to SIL anyway, I'm just going to have her order it and send a check.

You could legally have bought and mailed it outside SF, right?

That's actually not clear to me. But I was planning to order online anyway, where it seemed problematic that my billing address was SF.
I have no interest in running around trying to find one here.
ETA: Although gun websites are pretty disturbing in and of themselves.

Yeah -- I didn't like the movie; my response was "Wait, you mean that wasn't supposed to be obvious an hour ago?" But Bale interests me, I guess because he's a talented nutcase. (I think the AP commentary has some amusing stories along those lines.)

If you liked Thank You for Smoking, you will like Up in the Air. If you did not like Thank You for Smoking, you...still may like Up in the Air, since it's less cynical and has more heart.
