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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Compassionately intolerant
I need to see more pictures of the before cuz those two pictures just look like different angles to me.
Not like, say, Janet Jackson. Not at all subtle. t /hoots of derision

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The evil is this way?
> IIRC, he was forced out of the other project when he resigned from the Directors Guild after the whole "multiple directors" brouhaha over Sin City.
I'm confused (again). What mulitple directors brouhaha, why would the DGA care and why would him not being a member of the DGA mean he couldn't direct this other movie?

Some studios won't hire non-union directors, I bet. RR dropped out of DGA when they wouldn't let him share directing credit with Frank Miller, the comic creator.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Apparently, there is a Guild rule that you may not have more than one director credited on a movie unless the two people are legitimately a "creative team" or some such verbiage. Thus, Hughes twins, OK; Coen brothers, OK; Rodriguez and Miller, not OK -- they've never teamed up before now, and Miller's never made a movie in his life.
(This is the movie Sin City, based on Miller's comics, which is how Miller got involved.)
So, Rodriguez had to drop Miller from the director credit, or resign from the Guild. He chose the latter. Having chosen the latter, he is not a member of the Guild, and thus may not direct other features that fall within the Guild umbrella. Sort of like, if you're a non-union carpenter, a lot of places won't hire you, unless you join the union.
I think Rodriguez can re-join the Guild, but maybe not for a set period of time.
Also, I stand with bon bon in the "definitely a skinnier nose" camp.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Coen brothers, OK
For the Coens, one brother takes the directing credit and the other brother takes the producing credit, actually. Even though they do both jobs together.
