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.
I think I could like Dougray Scott as Bond.
New Joss X3 rumor. Admittedly, this comes from somebody I don't know, in a webforum I rarely read, that is in no way a Joss or Movie-related forum (Specifically, it's a forum devoted to high-quality pictures of female celebrities.) But, still.
ETA: Huh. Nevermind, old news. The same quote appears to be on Moviehole, and was actually linked from whedonesque. I am apparently behind the times. Ignore me.
NPR had an interesting story on old classics and why some are not on DVD. It mentioned that Star Wars' negative was "used up" -- due to the incredible popularity of the film.
How interesting. The Pet Shop Boys did a performance of the soundtrack they wrote for Battleship Potemkin in London recently. I think I'd like to see that. Apparently the director of Potemkin, (bad me for forgetting), wanted the soundtrack redone every ten years.
Sergei Eisenstein made Potemkin.
A few more proposed changes to the Star Wars films.
Now, if those changes were real, I'd consider renting the new Star Wars DVDs. As it is, I wouldn't even watch them if given to me.
The Onion A.V. Club has a glowing review of Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.
You know how they have wacky captions to photos in their movie reviews? This one says, "For the sake of authenticity, Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow was filmed in the world of tomorrow using actual sky captains."
Anyone else intrigued by The Forgotten ?
The commercials are working on me.
