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.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Then will come the remake of Escape from New York with The Rock as Plissken

I was rather fond of the SNL version myself -- Escape from 'Escape from New York'.

And the sequel, Escape from 'New York, New York'.

Up with the sun

Ali, I've only seen eight movies from that list.

(For the curious, those are: "Closer"; "Before Sunset"; "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind"; "Ray"; "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" ; "The Village"; "The Incredibles"; and "Spider-Man 2.")

A drunk driver sideswiped the Batmobile!

And, they were filming in Chicago?

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

And, they were filming in Chicago?

Yeah. I accidentally stumbled across them filming one night in Lower Wacker Drive. I saw a Gotham City Police car parked there.

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.

I heard they had done some filming on the Amstutz Expressway, too. Which is really all it's good for (beyond teenagers finding out how fast their new cars can go), since it doesn't actually go much of anywhere.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

What's that list of 30 refer to, exactly? I've seen all but 3 -- Polar Express, Being Julia, and The Village.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.

Here's one to look forward to: Howl's Moving Castle, Miyazaki's latest. It's everything you like about Miyazaki, and what an imagination the man has!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Speaking of Howl's Moving Castle, you can download a preview here: [link]

It's in Japanese (duh) with no subtitles, but what I can see of the animation looks gorgeous.

I saw a fan-sub about a week ago. It was wonderful. The original Japanese voices were wonderful. Why are we so allergic to subtitles?
