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.

Always Anti-fascist!

Bwah...I'd pay folding money to see Sean's movie, esp. if the teenyboppers are, you know, cop characters with troubled marriages and messed-up prostates and drinking problems. What would you bet that at least one "important' critic wouldn't get it?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

What would you bet that at least one "important' critic wouldn't get it?

To them, I would say this.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

That strip's a classic, P-C.

I think Warner's main reason for wanting to cast so young (and 25 really doesn't seem young to me) is they want sequels.

However, I do blame TV/Movies for the fact that I have a real hard time pegging the ages of people 16 to 24.

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

25 really doesn't seem young to me

It wouldn't seem as young to me if it wasn't Tom Welling's age.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Just finished watching Saved!

Loved it and shall own it.

Hey. New board.

Loved it and shall own it

Yummy. Haven't watched the commentary yet, but it's one of the many things vying for my attention this weekend (along with the latest Veronica Mars, Joan of Arcadia, and Lost.)

Will mention (for the fifth time. at least.) now, that I watched it 6-7 times this summer. The last time I watched it, I tried to read (some really good Harry Potter fanfic), but put down the reading about 10 minutes in to watch again.

Saw A Home at the End of the World last night. Good, but not spectacular. What really surprised me was Colin Farrell - he put in a moving and subtle performance, something I wasn't entirely sure he was capable of. I'm looking forward to Alexander with slightly less trepidation now.

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

Jars--I thought the film didn't quite jell, but still found it very moving in parts and worth watching. I totally agree with you on CF. He is also impressive in Tigerland.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I totally agree with you on CF. He is also impressive in Tigerland.

And the only thing worth watching in Minority Report.

I'll be watching Alexander, but mainly because at least they kept the whole slept-with-guys-too part.

They have awful posters. Really bad. I'm assuming that contract negotiations led to the floating head nature of them, and not because anyone overly liked the aesthetics.
