Last night (before I watched Code of Silence ) I was stuck on a crossword puzzle clue that is just too obvious this morning...
1a) Actor who supposedly, "destroyed the periodic table, because he only recognizes the element of surprise"
Come on. You drop by for a cup of coffee, and the world's not ending? Please.

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.

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

It's Chuck Norris, 1985
You gotta see Lone Wolf McQuade . My DEXH's favorite movie ever. So. Deliciously. Bad.

So it turns out Ghost Rider really is bad. (I didn't think Daredevil was that bad.)

Had you ever heard anyone talk about it as being good? I mean, I just went for the visual of Nic Cage screaming and bursting into flames...

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

My brother.
At least I think the Daredevil guys might have been trying to make a fun cool movie, despite the results. Not so sure about the Ghost Rider cast and crew.

No, no one said it was good, but no one said Daredevil or Fantastic Four was good either, and I thought they were fine.
Not so sure about the Ghost Rider cast and crew.
I think they were, though! Mark Steven Johnson reportedly put up his own money to fund an action sequence he wanted, and Nicolas Cage has a Ghost Rider tattoo (and apparently wrote parts of the script).

I liked the first Fantastic 4 but I thought the second one was pretty lame. I really didn't like Daredevil but then I saw the directors cut and loved it (basically the theatrical release cut the heart out of the movie). I still want to see Ghost Rider. But it's not real high up on my list.

Catch and Release: decent rental(Yay! Kevin Smith.) Timothy Olyphant in eyeliner: seriously foamy...Ooh, Mr. Bullock. If he'd show up, I'd stop avoiding funerals.

I liked it too erika. The notion of Kevin Smith writing for celestial seasonings boxes cracked me up.

The kids and I went out and tried to see a movie but there wasn't a thing playing that the three of us wanted to see enough to pay for. Pretty sad.
