Oooooooh.

jimi is there somewhere to leave a message on your site?

Okay, A) wow, someone actually visited my site!; and B) there is now :)

Don't recall if this has been mentioned but Seth Green has an uncredited part in Josie and the Pussycats. He's one member of the "boy band", DuJour. Mind you, even without Seth, the movie is well worth checking out. Very funny and suprisingly political. :)

* Oh and there was another BtVS connection; Bif Naked was/were involved with the music.

Speaking of films with ties to BtVS; I finally got to watch Pleasantville again. I knew Marc Blucas had a small role in the flick but I never noticed Danny Strong was also in it -- credited as "the juke box kid" :) -- nor did I notice "Pat" (Joyce's book-club friend in "Dead Man's Party" - brainfarting on the actress' name) has the role of the mother of the girl who's tongue turned pink.

* Edited to add this.

oh and cereal with HOT milk:

NEW BUFFY this week!

*shoves Numfar out the way and does the Dance of Joy*

Watcha got? Is it Dirty Girls?

yep!

I like the commentary for Donnie Darko done by Richard Kelly/Jake Gyllenhaal.

I just saw that this weekend and can you imagine the trauma Anya would go through if she watched it? Unfortunately, I think overall the film falls into the 'good, but forgetable' category for me--I loved the soundtrack, but I thought it kinda fell apart at the end.

And from that article that jimi posted:

“Ever since, she’s been telling her friends that her hulk has a willy. It sounds funny, but kids should not be exposed to this kind of thing. It should be taken off the shelves.”

Ah, the logic of hysterical parents. As a child I always thought there was some kind of tragic poetry in the fact that Ken had a girlfriend with breasts out to there and yonder, while he was trapped in a pair of unremovable plastic undies.

The first ten minutes or so of that movie are absolutely priceless. Seth Green's little hissy fit over the other guy stealing his face cracks me up every time. The rest of the movie is very likable and funny, and as you say, occasionally quite biting in terms of culture and politics.

NEW BUFFY this week!

*shoves Numfar out the way and does the Dance of Joy*

Squeeeeee!!! New Buffy after FIVE FREAKING WEEKS. That requires a large-scale Dance of Joy featuring all Australian Buffy fans, hippos in tutus, cute gymnast boys in glittery hotpants, a llama, the theme from a Summer Place (sung by Jasper from The Simpsons) and a feather boa.

Unfortunately, I think overall the film falls into the 'good, but forgetable' category for me--I loved the soundtrack, but I thought it kinda fell apart at the end.

See, it's one of those movies that I love so much I just have no perspective on it. I fell giddily in love with it when I saw it at the movies - I loved the humour and the style and the mind-fuck. I felt like I was watching one of my own dreams on screen or something - you know how sometimes a movie or something feels likes its explaining something about you to yourself? I just managed to use 'something' three times in one sentence. I've seen it a bunch of times now, own it on DVD, all the fangirl stuff. That dream-like feel isn't there any more but I still love watching it.

I feel the same way Emlah--it's up there with the best of the decade so far for me.

By the way, Patrick evicted--YAY!!! I really don't mind who wins now, I like them all.

Yep, he was the right person to go. I quite liked him - I enjoyed his sense of humour - but I think he contributed the least to the house dynamic. The three that are left are so great.

I felt bad for him when he was talking about Jo. Gretel and the entire audience know that she's still with her boyfriend, and he's sitting there talking about maybe being in love with her... at least he was honest, I suppose.

I know, I couldn't believe that Patrick OF ALL PEOPLE let his guard down like that!
