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.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
1) I thought Clive already gave an unequivocal "nuh uh" to Bond.
2) I think there needs to be a bylaw that men with tanned buttcheeks may not be Bond; and that goes double when aforementioned tanned buttcheeks are on my television screen unasked-for.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
George Lazenby is Australian.
I know.
I was snarking on a purity of Bond discussion that happened upthread. Somewhere around here: evil jimi "Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned" Dec 3, 2004 8:51:25 am PST

If I only had a brain...
So, assume Chris Rock is right and there are only four stars: Who are they? (I'm going to allow four of each gender because I'm nice that way.) Who make movies into must-sees, no matter how awful the movie?
Tom Cruise
Sean Connery
Julia (ugh) Roberts

Ann, that's a ferret.
Betsy, I'd add Renee Zellwegger as box office bait. And has Harrison Ford's day passed?

Sean Connery? These days? I don't think so.

Oh, damn. I have to include Jim Carrey, because the evidence is that he can open a really, really bad movie and make it a hit.
ita's right about The Sean, alas.

Do people go to see movies just because Renee Zellweger is in them? It wouldn't surprise me, though I fail to see her charm.
On the female side, I'd add Nicole Kidman and Halle Berry. For men, I think of Jim Carrey, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Keanu Reeves.

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