Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
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.

It's really a movie about women. So tonight a million men will drag their girlfriends to see "Catwoman" and will walk out saying, "Wasn't that stupid?" but the women will know: It's not.
Um. Beg to differ.

OTOH, yay, Hazel & Foxglove!
On the other ... didn't like Parish or Priestley or Deacon or Bible or whatever his name is much on the page (which I know is intentional). Not sure I want to see him onscreen.
ETA: Sexton. I was thematically, if not phonetically, accurate.

Ooh. I saw a mention in EW a while back, but I don't know how official it was. I hear the project's been attached to people forever, so who knows if this will go to fruition. But dude! Directed by Aronofsky! Written by Solid Snake!
