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.

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

I loved the trailer's shift from romcom to slightly creepy "romantic" to a flash of red and "Wes Craven presents..."

The audience lost it then, and again when the movie's title came up. In a way I don't want to know anything more about it. It was a perfect experience all encapsulated like that.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

I agree with you, ita, on the Red Eye trailer. I was sitting with my friend B watching it, and I kept nudging him and saying "The music's gonna change, dude. Wait. I'm telling you, it'll be a thriller." But I wasn't expecting the Craven-ness. I don't think I want to see the movie, because it would only ruin the trailer. (Which was the only thing that really scared me the night I saw The Ring 2.)

Because I refuse to leave well enough alone, I checked the IMDB entry for Red Eye, and I'm disappointed. It's not horror. As psych thrillers on a plane go, I'm picking Flight Plan.

Aww. That trailer was just so damn unsettling.

Ooh. It was written by Carl Ellsworth (who wrote the "Halloween" episode of Buffy).

Hey. New board.

Wow. That trailer is really good. (Red Eye).

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

You guys want to know who I want to see play Flash when they make a movie? This guy.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

He doesn't look like Barry Allen at all.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

But he could kinda be Bart.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Actually, if he were a decade younger, he'd make a great Wally.

However, right now, I think Jason Bateman would make a killer Ted Kord.
