As long as it's not Halle Berry...
(Oh, who am I kidding, it's Todd Haynes -- I'd go see it even if it was Halle Berry and Renee Zellweger co-starring opposite Carrot Top.)
Yeah, we're building a race of frog-people. It's a good time

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Saw The Guide last night with a smallish but wildly appreciative crowd. It was wonderful to hear little kids hooting with laughter.
So many sweetly teary moments too.
Just lovely.
Off to find a Marvin doll.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
That may just be the oddest movie idea since . . . . Koyannisquatsi.

Is Todd Haynes the guy who has a movie out right now (whose name I disremember right now) where the main character is played by seven different racially and sexually diverse people?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
No, that's that misanthrope what's-his-name who did Welcome To The Dollhouse. Todd Haynes did Safe, Velvet Goldmine, and that story about the Carpenters with Barbie dolls.

Todd Haynes = interesting and clever
Todd Solondz can bite me. While a valuable addition to the cultural landscape, I'm sure, his work defines the need for brain bleach in my world.

What are the chances that talks fall through and he's got to cast a different Storm?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, she said that's what she wanted to sign on for #3. I'd rather a small role with a different actress than a big role with her.
Curses.
