Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!

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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Dang it, why is that not playing closer to me?

It turns out I'm not seeing it this weekend, because it doesn't open here yet, just a one night only screening that I can't make it to. Grrr. I WANT TO SEE MY FISH MONSTER/LADY ROMANCE.

Say Ladybird tonight and did not love it. I expected to love it and I just liked it.

Who decided Get Out was a "comedy or musical"? [link]

Someone who didn't see the movie, I'm guessing. I mean the friend at TSA was comic relief, but that wasn't a big part of the movie.

Actually, the studio and director made that decision, because the "comedy or musical" category has become a catch-all for any genre film, which helps the genre films not go up against big dramas like Dunkirk.

The year The Martian was released, it was nominated as a comedy or musical, and it won.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I could almost buy The Martian as a musical.

Yeah, that's annoying and weird. You might as well call the categories "Oscar Movies" and "Golden Globe Movies."

Ah. That makes a weird sort of sense, I guess.
