Just had my first meeting about my next project--editing a new film studies book by Bordwell.
Oh wow, megan. A Film Studies God! (I had to read about 3 of his books as part of my degree). Can you say what it's about?
I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
People. They never learn. Word-squishes must die!
No no no! Just most of them! The ugly, ungainly, awkward ones! But a few of them are allowed to survive the mass culling, on the basis of comedy gold. Kock, Spork and Spred (Spike/Fred - because it's only a letter away from being a glorious piece of wordplay, and relates of course to that whole 'accents getting girls buttery' thing) are...well, I think that may be all of them, actually. And I think I'm the only person in the world who uses the first two, despite my attempts to encourage their use. (Mind you, once the movie's out...)
Oh...and I do love Clex. Because it's such a lovely sound, and you can't say it without licking your lips, and it rhymes with flex and sex and pecs, and because Clark canonically yells it at one point during, iirc, Zero. (Or, you know, Tom almost fluffs his line, if you prefer to look at it that way, and they decide to keep that soundbite, for some whacky reason.)

You better hide, missy.

I'll protect you, Fay! While I attempt to decide for the final time if "Bean" or "Dobby" is more entertaining for a pairing in Supernatural that I shall otherwise pretend does not exist.

Oh, dear God, no.

You and your Nixinger and your Billtsin and I don't even know who else. Gah!

Because books.
Oh my god, Dobby is wrong on EVERY LEVEL.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think I prefer portmanteau's to the whole incredibly complex set of naming conventions in the Roswell fandom. Polar?!? WTF?

with Bean, you could have them trading in their manmobiles for a classic yellow Mini! With Dobby, there could be a sock exchange! There is no bad here (aside from the actual pairing)!
