In my defense... uhh, that cover of "I Can't Help Falling In Love With You" by Lick the Tins is really fucking great!
It is, isn't it? But it's even better at the end of The Snapper.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I loved that movie! Well, both of them, to be completely honest, but the Snapper is fresher.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Ahhh P-C, you've got a John Hughes-sized gap on your movie knowledge, which is not necessarily a bad thing, unless you haven't seen Ferris Bueller's Day Off. In which case, I command that you get thee to the nearest video store, STAT!
I like SKoW because of the ginormous crush I had on Watts, despite the fact that I thought Keith was a weener.

Oh, yeah. I'd forgotten the song was featured in that flick. I liked The Snapper a lot, although it's usually shadowed by my unreasonable love for The Commitments. That reminds me, I haven't seen the last two Roddy Doyle flicks. Should remedy that.
t looks at the thread title Uhh, Buffy/Xander wouldn't have worked for me. I don't have a violent aversion to the idea or anything, but I really liked that their friendship has gone past romantic infatuation a long time ago.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Isn't the message of SKoW that you don't have to be that girl to get the good guy, and that guys should look further than fashion and rep?
Which totally isn't what I'd take from B/X -- I'd take exactly what PMM hates.

Would you hate it, while taking it, ita?

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

I technically have, but I was really tired and barely remember a thing. As I admitted in Movies, I'm also missing Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles, and The Breakfast Club.

The Joss part or the poontang part?

Yup. Just like I get defensive about Mal and Zoe. Let something just be a great Platonic (not just platonic) friendship.

I'm all for this, but it was impossible for me not to map Wash/Zoe as Xander/Buffy.

Wrod, ita, Mal and Zoe shouldn't do it cause they're *partners*, not, you know, partners. You should endeavor never to do your partner, even though in Homicide fandom some people take the affectionate term "bunky" way, way, too literally, imo.
