Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape  

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.

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

I enjoyed Knight's Tale, but he should have gone for the blacksmith chick, who was way cooler and not unattractive.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

But then we wouldn't get the silly joy of A Knight's Tale!

Plei keeps trying to get me to watch it. I have so far resisted. But in terms of gleefully deliberate anachronisms, Marie Antoinette is the winner in my book. I love that movie with a blind and unreasoning love. Pretty dresses! Shoes! Little cakes! Music from Siouxsie and Bow Wow Wow and The Cure and Adam Ant!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

he should have gone for the blacksmith chick

I did not enjoy the Knight's Tale because not only did I hate his love interest with a blazing hot hate that I usually reserve for Scooby Doo and George Bush, I didn't even realize until the end that she wasn't supposed to be a haughty bitch and he wasn't going to get together with the cool blacksmith chick.

I did enjoy yummy Paul Bettany, though....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I didn't even realize until the end that she wasn't supposed to be a haughty bitch and he wasn't going to get together with the cool blacksmith chick

100% my reaction, up to and including the Bettany love.

How DARE you speak the name of Scooby Doo in the same breath as George Bush! Defame not the name of that beloved pooch.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, if you wanna pick on a dog, pick on Scrappy Doo.

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

pick on Scrappy Doo.

Hey!

Thirded.

I'm from Roswell, and I work in embassies. There's a lot of movie stuff that's just silly, especially regarding what embassies are like. Bourne Identity did a good job with the consular officer ("This isn't a menu, miss") but was otherwise silly...although we all laughed when Bourne took out the RSO.

There's a lot of Roswell stuff that's silly too, but that's an improvement.
