Buffy the Vampire Slayer

[Manter]

We make it a game. When you watch loads of American shows the same ones come up all the time.

EVERYONE has been in Friends.

I can't remember who it was who described the Bill and Casualty as job seekers allowance for actors but it made me laugh

 

[Glitter]

Badgers has not got a memory for that kinda thing though so I really annoy him

Everyone decent male British actor from the 80s, 90s and early 00s was in Alien 3

My fella is like statto for that business. We're a dynamic and interesting couple It's a laugh a minute at our house!

The only thing my brain remembers is film (and some tv) information and song lyrics.
Nowt else

 

[Rebelda]

Like in the final season one of the kids from home improvement makes a pass at buffy when she's guidance councillor.

OMG YES, that's who that is. Argh that's been bugging me for years!

John Ritter is perfect as Ted

Buffy actors pop up everywhere. Me and my sister love the Gilmore Girls (an' what? ) and I'm always going 'oooh that's so-and-so from Buffy'. I'm told it's very annoying

Me too. I sometimes wonder what I could have done with my life if that part of my brain had been destined to house, say, useful science stuff or lots of foreign languages.

"Sure, we can work out after school. You know, if you're not too busy having sex with my mother."

 

[Manter]

Just watched that one....

Loving the Gilmore Girls is fine, and this is from a straight man. BTW Melissa McCarthy from Bridesmaids plays Sookie.

"What's a Stevedore?"

 

[8den]

Xander "How well would deal with having a evil twin!"

Willow "I HAD a evil twin and I think I handled it pretty fine!"

 

[Manter]

Just finished watching the prom one. Nearly at the end of season 3... :-(

 

[8den]

Also Buffy had the best Silly Episodes. The Zeppo, Superstar (Wait who actually stared in the Matrix?) Doublegangerland (Willow 'I think my evil twin is kind of gay") Once more with Feeling, (I mean even the title of the Zeppo episode is Awesome (Glitter it refers to Zeppo Marx the "unfunny Marx Brother who never turned up in movies handled boring stuff for the brothers) The Zeppo as a concept is flawless, and the title perfect.

Final thought of the night



Numfar? that's Joss Weedon.

 

[8den]

For god's sake she's 18 and you have the emotional maturity of a scone, just have at it man and shut up!

 

[8den]

Oh and finally

"Do we hug?"

"No we're too manly".

 

[8den]

Oh no wait.

"Let me answer that question with a headbutt. "

NOW I'm done.

I LOVE the dancing in that!

And Joss Whedon? That is ACE!!! Stealing and sharing *heads to Twitter*

I think you'll find that Sookie from the Gilmore Girls was in Bridesmaids

I watched Alien 3 again last night, it's still fucking great.

It's a brilliant stand alone film.
Some great acting performances.
The alien bits are a bit shite but I'll ignore that.

 

[SpookyFrank]

Some of the creature effects are a bit shit I'll give you that. I guess it was made just before CGI started taking over everything, the flipside of which is that there's plenty of great model shots and old school production design.

 

[kabbes]

I will hate Alien 3 forever for the fact that it made utterly pointless the entire events of Aliens. It was like they were trying to retcon out of existence the greatest monster movie ever made.

That's why I said "as a stand alone film"

You should read the story of how it was made. David Fincher had executives producers telling him where to set up his lighting rigs.

Also you should read the story of Joss Weedon's revision of his script for Alien 4, savaged by producers. (Just to keep the thread on topic like)

Links?

The reason I love Alien 3 is because of the actors in it.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103644/ It is a veritable who's who of brilliant British actors.

In our house Greebo has an appalling memory for faces, whereas I'm the exact opposite. I play a little game sometimes where with any production done in Vancouver in the last 15 years, I see how many cast connections to Stargate SG-1 there are. I was watching season two of "Falling Skies" last week and embarrassed myself by saying (out loud! ) "ah! Ryan Robbins, in The Sanctuary, with Amanda Tapping, who was in Stargate SG-1!"

 

[Manter]

Series 4. I understand why I started watching it sporadically for a series. Weird roommate, Riley, Buffy being all inadequate and insecure.

 

[kabbes]

Perservere with it, because in some ways it is the best series. And in other ways it isn't. But enjoy the good ways.

I will (the joy of mat leave) but right now I want to smack Buffy.

 

[Lord Camomile]

I think I've possibly hit my personal peak with seasons 2 and 3. Didn't really like a lot of the new characters, never really bought the whole Buffy/Spike thing, and just thought it all became a bit... silly? I know stopped watching as religiously, will be interesting to see what I think of it all this time round.

I do not expect to like Riley, Dawn or Tara

Ooh, but there is The Trio to look forward to
