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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Damn, that's an expensive take. Ya gotta be in the moment, Warren!

Well, according to Penn, he felt really bad about it - he just freaked out a little. Damn, though, I'd love to have seen the footage (from multiple angles).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Interview with George Lucas about the DVD release ot the original SW trilogy and what-not.

Ann, that's a ferret.

during the filming of the death scene, Beatty froze up on the first take

Last night I TiVo'ed Deliverance. So at first glance, I thought of a totally different Beatty....

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

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

Summarizing (that was almost Dummarizing) IMDB summaries seems to indicate that Sky Captain is very pretty, not that interesting, Wimbledon is pleasant enough, and Bernie Mac does a good job in Mr. 3000.

A drunk Edward Furlong was arrested for trying to free some lobsters.

I don't know what a freed lobster would do in Kentucky.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Hit on his sister and drink a brew.

Same as everyone else.

Trust my rage

I just got back from Sky Captain and liked it a lot. Mainly for stylistic reasons. There was just a lot to look at (besides Jude Law, who never did anything for me before, but here...) and I really liked the Wizard of Oz effect with the black and white before the island and colors afterwards. The art deco (is that the right term...I'm not sure) style was really appealing to me.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Just saw Deliverance. That's an intense 45 minutes in the middle there, especially when the wind and rain are doing their thing outside.

It's one of those films that, if you see it in the theater, you'll be spending the first five minutes outside after it's over re-adjusting to reality.

But not for the kids, by any means. (TCM rated it TV-MA for language. I'd add violence and possibly sex.)

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

Just saw Garden State. If anyone needs me for the next couple hours, I'll be sitting by myself and staring into space while mouthing silently.
