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.

(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.

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.

Oh, those'll happen no matter the casting.

Hell, I'm actually kind of twitchy about him handling Diana, because I seriously doubt he'll give as good a showing as Rucka's doing on the actual title.

I'm more worried some studio clown will say, "Lindsay Lohan! She's even a brunette!" The fact that she's a child will be irrelevant.

When did she go brunette? Her hair's been red for as long as I can remember.
