Five Favourite Films with James Marsters
Alien
"I thought this was a really interesting mix of horror and sex. There are so many sexual references, from the robot attacking Sigourney Weaver, and he rolls up a magazine and stuffs it down her throat, I mean, wow! Or the fact that Ash's blood looks like semen, it's just a lot of that kind of stuff. Deep, deep psychological sexual stuff; like calling the computer 'Mother'.
It's really fascinating, and I think that's why it's so successful in scaring you. It places imagery that's deep and sexual in a horror show. It's designed to scare people, all this stuff that is repressed, and gets inside their psyche and is truly uncomfortable, and I think it's right in (Alien artist and production designer) HR Giger's designs, I think sex is what we're all afraid of."

on Apr 07 2009 06:01 AM Great list! Ratatouille, I think, is one of the best animations ever made by a great director. As a food lover, I loved this treat. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 07 2009 06:35 AM Never watched Buffy or anything Dragon Ball Z, but I might see this movie and every movie this guy makes in the future. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 07 2009 07:16 AM I liked his explanations for the most part. I do believe Ratatouille is a great movie, moreso than WallE for me because it was less preachy and less filled with hackneyed and cliched social critique, so that's not a bad choice. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 07 2009 07:42 AM In reply to this comment (#2413825) Yes really. What's wrong with Ratatouille? (Reply to this) |
on Apr 07 2009 08:20 AM Haha its just kind of funny he pulled Ratatouille out after the first four. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 07 2009 08:58 AM No matter what's goin' on, Spike will always be cool. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 07 2009 09:14 AM I like that it wasn't a totally standard list. Evidently he's a Ridley Scott fan! (Reply to this) |

on Apr 07 2009 09:33 AM good list (Reply to this) |

on Apr 07 2009 11:16 AM In reply to this comment (#2413825) What's wrong with Ratatouille, you got something against animation or good movies? (Reply to this) |

on Apr 07 2009 11:45 AM James obviously took a course on filming and had to study the first four films except Ratatouille, James is obviously a passionate movie buff. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 07 2009 01:04 PM The Milagro pic is from An Unfinished Life. Great films, every one of them. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 07 2009 01:20 PM Spike loves Ratatouille ? Strange. (Sorry, I'm a huge Buffy fan :P) Good list. Alien is one of my favorites, and Apocalypse Now and Brave Runner are both great. (Reply to this) |
on Apr 07 2009 01:51 PM Safe but awesome list. (Reply to this) |
on Apr 07 2009 02:00 PM How can he have such a good taste in movies but think he's got gold with Dragonball? (Reply to this) |
on Apr 07 2009 02:00 PM Spike loves Ratatouille. This gets approval. Too bad this is going to be the worst piece of crap since crap was first crapped. (Reply to this) |

on Apr 07 2009 02:16 PM In reply to this comment (#2415552) Umm, i am pretty sure you have no idea what you are talking about since the movie is BLADE RUNNER not "Brave" Runner. But what can we expect from a Buffy fan. (Reply to this) |
on Apr 07 2009 02:33 PM I like how he is sticking to Sci-Fi roots with his personal choice of jobs... (Reply to this) |
