Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!

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 haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I couldn't even watch the preview for that whale movie.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I will see any movie with Olivia Coleman.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Did you watch The Roses? It makes me want Coleman and Cumberbatch to do more together.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

Imagine Being Eaten by a Whale, and the Whale Is Toxic Masculinity

Makes note to read that AFTER I see the Stupid Whale Movie.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

I love both of them, but the previews for that looked so stressful! Was it stressful?

The whale movie is not for me, and I am not for it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I am not into the whale movie because I read a short story a while back about a whale fall that was really good and this movie looks nothing at all like that story, so I resent that it has that title.

Back half of October is packed for me: You Can See Everything, Spirited Away, Stupid Whale Movie, and Klara and the Sun are all purchased, and I still have to get tickets for Horny Wickerman and a few others.

The only thing I’m looking forward to is the new Laika film, Wildwood.

Oh, that does look worth getting to a theater for!

The local Stumptown Coffee hung stills from the movie on the walls as artwork. They were all dioramas of Portland. Absolutely gorgeous!
