Also when Apple is releasing Tiger. My paranoid side fears that both Sin City and the release of Tiger are elaborate spoofs.

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.

Matthew Vaughn to direct XMen3 -- according to CHUD.
How about Buffista Movies 4: In 4-D for the next thread? Or Buffista Movies IV: Straight To Video?
It's not a movie, but I just finished The Wire Season Three last night. Holy shit, those guys play for keeps. I don't think I can recommend it highly enough, but I have to warn people to start at the beginning of a season and give it several episodes to set up the arc. Although Seasons One and Two were so tightly plotted (and intensely well acted and written, natch) that nothing was wasted, I still thought that the early episodes of Season Three were full of throwaway scenes at first. They were not. If anything, Season Three was even more tightly plotted.
Still in lust with Infernal Affairs. Are the prequel and the sequel out on DVD? Has anyone seen them, and if so, are they comparable in quality to the first part?
I've seen them, but AFAIK, they're not available on DVD, at least in Region 1. (They screened at the New York Film Festival as a triple-feature.) The second film/prequel is as good or better than the first (it's a gangster epic rather than a thriller), and the third makes up in entertainment value what it lacks in coherence. (There's a lot of jumping around in time, and several dream sequences which may or may not actually make sense by the end of the film. I'd have to see it again.)
Elijah Wood is going to creep me the bugfuck out in Sin City. I see it coming, but it's not going to stop me watching it, no sir. I've watched the trailer about a bazillion times now. So very pretty.
I saw the Sin City preview last night finally and HOLY FUCK!
I gotta see that movie.
Gotta give Rodriguez props for staying faithful to the visuals.
And Frank Miller and Quentin Tarantino.
How many directors does one movie need?
I'm going to give Rodriguez the props, since in everything I've read, it was his choice.
Sean, did you see it at the theater? Or online? Because I want to know what it looks like on the big screen.

Fair enough. Though I can't imagine how, since Miller was right there, it was made without some input from him.
Quentin was there just to be Quentin, I imagine.

On TV, during the Simpsons. I too would like to know how it looks on the big screen.

Not to mention that Miller should get some props in there somewhere for having done the drawings that Rodriguez chose to emulate, n'est pas?
