Speaking of "Who can kill a child" there is a "sort of" remake by Tom Shankland ( W[DELTA]Z ) called The Children which I saw recently and it's pretty good. Scary children and some strong violence with a vibe of Hitchcocks "The Birds". There is a UK Blu-ray and DVD release but I have no information about the blu-ray region code (the dvd is region 2 of course). As usual: entertaining podcast!

Probably most closely comparable to Willow or Dawn (Buffy's sister). It works on that show because it is supposed to be a little campy/comedic. With Twilight it just irked me. But that's just me.

Seriously? I may not have seen all 10 or whatever seasons of Buffy but Stewart's character is nothing like her - their motivations are completely different. And she's a great improvement on the character from the novel; she takes the "shell" and creates a real (or at least realistic) person. ““Buffy”-esque”? Seriously?

It is now at $45.91/share. i.e. a 199% increase. NICE - I'm rich! But I shoulda bought 10,000. Ah well. Joseph Gordon Levit is also bringing me some serious cash.

I didn't like her performance sop much in Twilight at all. It was just too "Buffy"-esque for me. A lot of stammering and trying to be the shy girl, even though she's strong and charismatic. Didn't hate it, just didn't think it was anything special and didn't much add to an otherwise shitty movie. For once, I have to disagree with you.

She is really really good in this film." Hmmmm....nothing she's done has seen the light of day *since* Into the Wild - outside of Twilight. And hate to poop on your party but regardless of how cheesy that movie is, her performance is great. On the music note, first tape was the Ghostbusters soundtrack that I forced my dad to buy when I was 7 because I liked the "cute ghost" on the front. First & second CD's (purchased at the same time) Live's "Throwing Copper" and Nirvana's "In Eutero". “Oh, yea, and I haven’t liked Kristin Stewart this much since INTO THE WILD.

Because I love it so much. The first CD I ever bought was a prog/death metal album called "Condemned" by Confessor, which I hated and sold immediately, but through the years has become a cult classic within the metal community, but I never reexplored. I blew my chance to be on the cutting edge there. Third CD was even more awful, Vanity/Nemesis by Celtic Frost, who were a respected metal band, but this was the nadir of their career, easily :P I didnt start buying any non-metal albums until a couple years later :P First tape I ever bought though - MC Hammer "Please Hammer Dont Hurt Em" “How do you guys remember the second CD you ever bought?”

I can't remember which. Oi! It's weird nostalgic minutae at 1:05am. Just Saw Adventureland. Agreed on how delicate and warm the film is and I loved the languid pace of the film. But oi. That break-up scene was pretty awful, I thought it was going to go all "CHASING AMY" for a moment there. I did like the end scene though. Oh, yea, and I haven't liked Kristin Stewart this much since INTO THE WILD. She is really really good in this film. In the end, Adventureland reminded me a lot of ALL THE REAL GIRLS and that is pretty fuckin' fantastic.
