Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video  

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.

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

Joss is doing Wonder Woman.

How do we start lobbying him to cast Gina Torres in the lead.

Well, since he's worked with her before, I doubt he'll be that tough to convince. We'll mostly have to worry about convincing the suits at whichever studio to agree to it.

Man, I hope studio high muckety-mucks don't step in and give us "Paris Hilton IS Wonder Woman!!!"

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Maybe...maybe...Laurence will go in there...and he'll, like, he'll beat up the muckity mucks until they say, "YES! Gina Torres! OF COURSE!!"

(Hee. Me too! Specially if a Weinstein. Not cause I don't like them, but seeing Larry kick the shit outta Bob W. would be funny. They could sell tickets and make back what they lost on "Kate & Leopold")

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

I'd rather watch that than the movie.

But the movie would have her wearing this.

Mmmm....

Speaking of Alex Ross.

He's appearing at a comic book shop tonight. I think we're going.

We'll mostly have to worry about convincing the suits at whichever studio to agree to it.

Probably Joss' biggest worry too. Not to mention the inevitable fanboy, online kerfuffle.
