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.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
Is that true that the lead vampire guy sparkles
indeed. instead of these vampires spontaneously combusting when in sunlight, they sparkle.
the books are really good crack-y fun. especially if you are like me and become a dual shipper.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
The sparkly vampire novel(s?) and planned movie are currently #1 on the list of my mockables. Not least because they inspire all the craxxy fannishness of the HP books, except with more overt sexuality (though a Mormonish aversion to Actually Doing It While Unmarried -- the author is Mormon) and the dreadful irritatingness of readers who have never read any other vampire novel in their lives.
I mean, also, sparkly vampires! How is that not funny!

Bwah! This thing is the vampire equivalent of Eragon, isn't it?

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
The sparkly vampire novel(s?) and planned movie are currently #1 on the list of my mockables.
OMG the excerpts! They are hilarious. Let me see if I could find some. For example:
And then his cold, marble lips pressed very softly against mine.
What neither of us was prepared for was my response.
Blood boiled under my skin, burned in my lips. My breath came in a wild gasp. My fingers knotted in his hair, clutching him to me. My lips parted as I breathed in his heady scent.
Immediately I felt him turn to unresponsive stone beneath my lips. His hands gently, but with irresistible force, pushed my face back. I opened my eyes and saw his guarded expression.
"Oops," I breathed.
"That's an understatement."
His eyes were wild, his jaw clenched in acute restraint, yet he didn't lapse from his perfect articulation. He held my face just inches from his. He dazzled my eyes.
"Should I… ?" I tried to disengage myself, to give him some room.
His hands refused to let me move so much as an inch.
"No, it's tolerable. Wait for a moment, please." His voice was polite, controlled.
I kept my eyes on his, watched as the excitement in them faded and gentled.
Then he smiled a surprisingly impish grin.
"There," he said, obviously pleased with himself.
"Tolerable?" I asked.
He laughed aloud. "I'm stronger than I thought. It's nice to know."
"I wish I could say the same. I'm sorry."
"You are only human, after all."
"Thanks so much," I said, my voice acerbic.
He was on his feet in one of his lithe, almost invisibly quick movements. He held out his hand to me, an unexpected gesture. I was so used to our standard of careful non-contact. I took his icy hand, needing the support more than I thought. My balance had not yet returned.
"Are you still faint from the run? Or was it my kissing expertise?" How lighthearted, how human he seemed as he laughed now, his seraphic face untroubled. He was a different Edward than the one I had known. And I felt all the more besotted by him. It would cause me physical pain to be separated from him now.
AHAHAHA. Seriously. Cold marble lips! Lithe, almost invisibly quick movements! His seraphic face! And what 17 year old girl describes herself as "besotted"? It's like the schmooopiest Buffy/Angle4evah shippers have gone pro.

It would cause me physical pain to be separated from him now.
It'll probably cause more physical pain to get closer to him. IJS.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
His eyes were wild, his jaw clenched in acute restraint, yet he didn't lapse from his perfect articulation.
This is just beautifully horrid writing in so many, many ways.

Seriously!!
I like how she seems to truly characterize Edward in that scene as aggressively dull. Just like the comic says!
