I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

There's a screening of Much Ado at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on May 30, but I'm not sure I could go, and it's probably sold out already.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Iron Man was fun! I'm not sure the plot made sense, but shit blew up and there were robots!

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

True! I realized after leaving the theater that I never really quite understood what the hell Killian's plan was or how Extremis worked exactly, but, you know. Explosions and robots.

IM3: I'm not sure that Killian even had a plan, beyond "Kill everything! I hate the world! Especially Stark!" As for Extremis, um, people made of lava! Awesome! How does it work? Who cares! Exploding lava people! Just go with it, I say. It's a comic book.

The one thing I wish was that they had showed HOW Tony fixed Pepper.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Are we to assume that Pepper is now basically invulnerable and the fix was to make her non-splodey ?

Maybe it was left unspecified so they can do what they want in the future? I agree it was kind of glossed over.

I will NEVER stop laughing about the tag. EVER.

I knew you'd love it.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Not that kind of doctor!

Basically, the WHOLE Tony-as-narrator frame is him, telling his story to his SCIENCE BRO!!!

I will never EVER stop laughing. That alone was worth the price of admission.

I have other thoughts, really, but I'm still stuck on the tag.
