Starship Troopers!
There's a movie that may narrate from a director unsupported POV.
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

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.

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

"I wouldn't piss on him if he were on fire" and "I wouldn't give him the steam off my piss if he were dying of thirst" are two fairly common ones in Ireland.
Movies, you say? Um... The Incredibles was awfully good, wasn't it? I liked the hair.

Okay. Pretty.
Didn't like it as much as II and way less than I.
The twisted humor, except for the anachronistic language mentioned here before, has been wrung right out of it. Which is of the sigh. Too bad, so sad.
Love the actresses and Nathanial Arcand is dre-ea-my.
I wish I'd had as much fun watching it as the crew obviously had making it. (as evidenced by the special features...but guys?...if your gonna make TWO featurettes? Try and make sure they have DIFFERENT footage! Putting dissimilar title cards on them and adding a bit of different music does not FOOL us! Only severe ADD sufferers aren't going to notice the SAME DAMN SCENES. What are we, slow? sheesh.)

There's a hint of a whiff of a rumour that an actor named Colin Salmon may be lined up for Bond.
Make of it what you will.

My sister told me he was the bookie favourite!
Of course, there are too many rumours to keep track of, and he's already appeared in the Bond movies, but I like it.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Dude. He has already been in Bond movies. So, basically, he would be promoted into the James Bond pants? I mean, in the outside-the-movie world, we know it is a revolving set of people in the JB pants, but that would make it so inside the movie as well.
He is quite good looking, BTW.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Just googled him and hey, I know that guy! He was terrific as the ultra-spiffy superintendent in Keen Eddie. He can totally do suave sophistication as well as ruthlessness, and the idea of the first black Bond is nifty.

Perfect with a side of Cubby Broccoli

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
... black Bond...
Followed closely thereafter by the first white Shaft.

I sincerely hope we're done with Shaft movies.
