Yeah, they kind of had me at "Will Smith naked" I must admit.

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 want to see Will Smith naked. I don't want him to be smug about it.
He's yucky. Why can't we have Tudyk naked instead?

Considering he plays a genderless robot, this is likely less entertaining than it would seem on first glance.
Sean, I just wanted to tell you I'm watching Brazil and Blade Runner this weekend. Which one should I watch first?
Admittedly his nekkidness in Wild Wild West was very disappointing. He may be one of those guys that looks better in clothes, for no clear reason. But I want to be sure.
"It's actually a smart art film that is masquerading as a big summer blockbuster," Smith says about the $105 million 20th Century Fox film.
If the trailers I've seen are any indication, it does far too good a job in its masquerade.
But, you know, the film makes a valuable addition to Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics:
1 A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2 A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3 A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
4 A robot may ignore the first three laws and turn evil only if he has a red glowy thing in his chest.
Handy little feature, that. Though I think the designers might have been better employed thinking of ways to keep the robots from going bad in the first place rather than installing a "this unit now set to: EVIL" warning light.
I think it was the Simpsons episode where they go to Itchy and Scratchy land... when the robots experience a major problem, they revert to their default behavior--which is, "Kill all humans."
