megan walker, that sounds wonderful, and I'm looking forward to reading your blog!
Xander: Just once I'd like to run into a cult of bunny worshippers. Anya: Great. Thank you very much for those nightmares.

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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
We saw Rise of Skywalker today, and honestly, the overwhelming thought I was left with was how sad I am that Disney would never, ever let Finn and Poe be Space Husbands. I'm shallow like that. (But they totally ARE.)
Also, is Adam Driver like 10 feet tall? I think he is.
Oh, wait. I really did get teary when Chewie lost his shit about Leia dying. That got me in the feels.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I choked up at your whitefont point, as well, Teppy.
Overall, I enjoyed RoS enough in the moment, but there was plenty of stuff to bug me once I had time to think about it. The plot felt like a 12 year-old's ideas of what should happen after RotJ.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Little Women was phenomenal. I honestly can't find a single bad thing to say about it.

Hey. New board.
When I was eight, I regularly argued that Return of the Jedi was the best Star Wars because "A New Hope has a death star, Empire Strikes Back has a lightsaber duel, but Return of the Jedi has BOTH!"
I haven't seen ROS yet, but my impression from the internet is that JJ Abrams is me, at eight.

Because books.
I tried to go to Little Women on NYE and when I got there for a 3:50 showing, everything but the front row was sold out. Yay women-led and -made movies doing phenomenally!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

More or less, assuming you had umpty million dollars to play with at eight.

I've heard worse arguments.

Hey. New board.
Sure! I think that's basically still what my dad looks for in a Star Wars movie.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
There are lovely STAR WARS WOOO! moments in RoS, and I loved having the main three finally together, but overall, what a hot mess!
Yes, Stormpilot is absolutely happening. (am I the only one who wondered whether Hux become the mole because Kylo wasn't hate-fucking with him anymore ?)
