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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'm thrilled for this summer's comic book/adventure movies -- Iron Man, Dark Knight, Indiana Jones.

What else am I forgetting? Is Hellboy 2 this summer?

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

And I have a great love for Superman Returns, though I know there are a lot of folk here who didn't like it.

Like Green Goblin?

Green Goblin: Oh, yeah, why would you want to watch someone fight in a superhero action movie when you could watch someone think?! "Coming this summer: Lex Luthor thinks!" How did that pitch meeting go? "Ready for this, guys? Lex Luthor's gonna THINK!" "How much?" "$200 million!" "Sold!"
Lex Luthor: Actually, only some of it was thinking. Some was plotting, some was planning, and finally, the explaining of the plan, which I had plotted after I'd thought of it.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

You should have seen the barely under the surface frustration I was causing my husband the other night about this movie.

"I'm so excited for Iron Man!"

t blank stare from me

"You know? Iron Man? Comic book movie?"

t blank stare turns to knowing t starts humming "Iron Man"

"NO NO NO!! That's Ozzy Osbourne! Not [insert name of Iron Man]"

t blank stare from me

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

And I have a great love for Superman Returns, though I know there are a lot of folk here who didn't like it.

I *loved* Superman Returns. And I really didn't expect to, going in - I expressly dislike Kate Bosworth, have become increasingly skeptical of Kevin Spacey, and the idea of another Superman movie was kind of meh. But I wound up falling completely head over heels for it.

(Though it's another on that list of "don't really want the DVD because the big screen experience was so BIG" movies, so I haven't seen it since it was in theatres. I'm just not sure how it'd play on a television.)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What else am I forgetting? Is Hellboy 2 this summer?

Batman and Iron Man and Hulk and Hellboy and Speed Racer and Wall-E and Indiana Jones and X-Files.

insert name of Iron Man

Tony Stark. t edit And, really, Robert Downey Jr. is kinda perfect to play Tony Stark.

That would be Tony Stark, Aims.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Although I have a shameful fondness for the second Tim Burton Batman movie (Batman Returns, maybe?), with the Penguin and Catwoman.

I guess you're also sharing a brain with me. Without a doubt my favorite of the two Burton B-Man's. I'm pretty sure that has a LOT to do with Michelle Pfeiffer, though I did find Keaton an interesting choice for Batman, and he got more to do in Batman Returns.

Kevin Spacey

Best part of the movie. First time I ever wanted Clark to have his pansy ass kicked.

Saying "Loi-th Lane?" around his toothbrush KILLED me ded.
