Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I still haven't read Deathly Hallows. I'm a-skeered. Also good at skimming.

That's sad news about Maggie Smith. ::queues up Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and Ladies in Lavender::

Our wings are not tired.

I don't know the sad news about Maggie Smith, because, having not seen or read any Harry Potter, but wanting to some day, I had to skim all of the previous posts.

But I got to see her on stage a couple of years ago in a West End production of The Lady From Dubuque. The play itself is pretty much crap, but she was awesome. Which, not a surprise.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

One person's "charming" is another person's "asshole."

So I was going to make a joke about Urban Dictionary, and then I saw definition number 5 for "charming."

Here's a tip: don't do what I just did.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I went and did what you did . . .

I'd be horrified if I wasn't giggling.

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

There's a fine, fine line between charming and asshole.

But my line? I like it to be bright.

:: returns from urbandictionary, stifling a guffaw::

Okay, now people are just making stuff up, right?

That's my guess. I would hope.

I must say, my rational mind wants to dislike Russell Brand, but I am totally charmed by him, even when he's playing a horrible person.

The six-part Python documentary that was on IFC (I think) last year put me off of him completely. I kept wanting to smack him during his interview segments. And never stop.

Because books.

I hated him when he hosted ... something last year. The MTV Movie Awards, maybe? I don't remember. But I liked him in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and he did an interview with Letterman not long ago that was hysterical.

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

Okay, now people are just making stuff up, right?

I'm pretty sure there are people who make a hobby of inventing definitins for Urban Dictionary

Russel Brand came to my parents' retirment comunity looking for "old people's opinons" according to Mom but he was very late and she got bored so she didn't stick around to find out what the deal was.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I just came from finally seeing Iron Man II. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Do we still need white-font stuff?
