I went to see Speed Racer last night. I walked out.
Out. For. A. Walk. ... Bitch.

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.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I haven't read one good review. The closing credits are pretty but that's all I've seen.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I've heard reports from two people who loved it.

The evil is this way?
I saw "Iron Man" again last night. I liked it better upon second viewing.

Saw Speed Racer today and loved it, but I can see where it might be too much for some people. Particularly if you have a really bad reaction to visual overload.

I've not seen the source material. I suspect I probably would of enjoyed it if I had, but in terms of a stand alone movie it was a complete mess.
I've just been looking at the reviews - my favourite line so far: "There's something here for everyone to dislike - the whole clan can have fun making fun of this thing". Hee!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I never expect much from movies made from comic books, but I enjoyed Iron Man.
Speed Racer next weekend, maybe. I have fond memories of watching the show with my friends after school when I was eight.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Really like Ironman. Downey's performance was INCREDIBLE. I also like Bridges a lot. I didn't even recognize him until he started talking.

Neither did I, Scrappy. The inverted hair worked wonders.
Speed Racer bombed this weekend, making only $20 million. It may just eke out a #2 finish.

Still, more than Serenity.
