Did Gilliam do The Fisher King?

We didn't have sex, if that's what you mean. That's all I do now, not have sex.

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.

Yes.
Damned brilliant movie. And it amuses me that I've seen so many of his films that I can pick up his tropes.
I did love the monks who keep the universe going by telling stories. And Parnassus' glee at realizing that somewhere, someone else has begun telling stories. You can't stop the signal, indeed.
The Devil's dismay at having won was good, because he was in it for the game, not the victory.

I love this commentary by the Flick Filosopher on the sheer blindness of Hollywood as to why women would want to go see Iron Man 2.

Ha!I love her! I try to spend time reading her blog at least once a week.
Yes, Hollywood, women might enjoy looking at RDJ for 2+ hours.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Yes, Hollywood, women might enjoy looking at RDJ for 2+ hours.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
I just watched "The Soloist", which I mostly did not like, but that also left me too unsettled to mock properly. But I will say it's um, heartwarming, how well RDJ fills out an old pair of jeans.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Hey, some women like explosions and robots and stuff.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
There were explosions and robots and stuff? I'm still back on RDJ building a particle accelerator by hand in a tank undershirt. All I need.
Oh, and Don Cheadle ain't bad, either.

It's an entire favored genre: Things Blow Up!
Much more satisfying than "chick flicks". Gah.
