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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I am dying to see that, Lisah! Love me some Birbigs.

Punishingly Intricate

Love me some Birbigs.

Me too! Everybody is great in it but Gillian Jacobs is especially amazing.

I finally saw Ghostbusters today, too, and was amused. It definitely is wayyyy better than the original!

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

I talked to one person who saw Suicide Squad and said it wasn't that bad.

It wasn't. The Internet is enjoying its hyperbole but Christ have they never seen an actual bad movie before.

I talked to one person who saw Suicide Squad and said it wasn't that bad. Of course he said the comic book wasn't that great either so he figured it was on par with that.

That's the point where he's probably revealed himself as a fake geek boy, unless he specified a specific run.

Yeah, didn't Gail Simone write a run that was probably pretty good?

Wait, no, I'm thinking of Secret Six.

I mean, they're probably thinking just New 52, but damn it, the Squad has HISTORY.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Wait, no, I'm thinking of Secret Six.

That was SO GOOD.

damn it, the Squad has HISTORY.

Here's a rundown: [link]

It was probably the best comic that DC put out in the 1980s.

Whoa, Tom, that was a great read, thanks!

I didn't know that's how we got Oracle!

Also...it seems like that 1980s run is basically the reason it's popular? It's...the only good run?

Well, SAUSAGE PARTY was extremely crude, but I have to admit that I laughed a lot.
