And it got better and better as the seasons went on and there was more footage to choose from. The ones that ended with Buffy with the battle-axe (if that's what it is) are my faves.
I was going to post this, too! (Along with a couple of others that have probably already been mentioned in the comments.) It's really a terrific intro - with the footage as well as the performers varying a bit, but always with the smashed camera at the end. Perfect.
Nice to know :)
Yeah, I was going to mention that, but you've done it for me.
"I know we got to second base … " My favorite line of this episode.
Just watched. Ugh, tears. I can' see this going anywhere but a very bad place.
LOL. And then more hacking.
I don't remember hating Chariots of Fire (haven't watched it in forever, and can't remember what it was up against that year), but good god was Out of Africa a wretched movie. Made from such a good book, too.
Word.
I will admit no such thing (though - my husband liked it fine). As far as I was concerned, they were hacking, and they were stabbing, and then there was a rape, and then they were hacking, and then they were stabbing some more. Finally, to mix it up, there was drawing and quartering. And hacking.
It counts. Please share with the class?
O!K! !!111!!!
I ranted about Braveheart more recently (upthread? downthread? depends on your settings). I was trying to confine myself to one film or I would definitely have gone after Dances With Wolves as well. Ugh.
I tend to forgive American Beauty a bunch of this stuff because there was some terrific writing and acting in that movie ("nutritious yet savory" is a line we actually use around our house). But admittedly it had some plotting … issues.
The hate is because of Pulp Fiction, in my case. But it was pretty bad. Not Crash bad, though, I admit.
Braveheart. I detest it. The ridiculous testosterone levels (which can be fun, if done right, but in this case no). The gratuitous rape for the sake of motivating the hero. The homophobia. The Mel-Gibson-dies-like-Jesus ending. The total historical inaccuracy - which really is the least of the problems I have with…
Oddly, I remember my first viewing including the latex glove masturbation scene, but not all the breasts breasts breasts in the Peeping Tom scene. Oh, who knows.
The Peeping Tom scene!! I don't know what cut of the movie I'd seen previously, but it had clearly been censored. I found out just how many tits were in that scene when my husband and I rented it to watch with our then-12-year-old son. Whoops! … I mean, we didn't stop the movie or anything, but the kid was TOTALLY…
FOOD FIGHT!
