I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

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 am the fly who dreams of the spider

Seeing Iron Man gave me a hankering for more RDJ, so went out and got myself Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. Not as awesome as I remember it being, but still plenty awesome and enjoyable and horrific. Whatever you do, though, do NOT listen to the commentary. Val, you are a dick.

What are some other good Robert Downey Jr. flicks? I want to see Zodiac, am scared of Fur. Actually, as much as I love the guy, I really haven't seen a whole lot of his work. I haven't seen Chaplin!

Um, maybe the better question is what should I avoid?

He's pretty great in Wonderboys, which has the added virtue of being about the secret lives of Iron Man and Spider-Man in the publishing industry.

Seconding Wonderboys, and strongly recommending Chaplin and Soapdish for further great RDJ films.

Definitely see Soapdish if you haven't. That's a hilarious film.

I love HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS for RDJ, but I may be an exception.

Yeah, but primarily for Marisa Tomei's bitchin' haircut.
