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.
From what I've heard, Kristanna's not all that, stuntwise. I was unimpressed with her in T3, too. Lucy's too small (and I think we'd get a black WW before an Asian one).
Rebecca Romijn --- hmm. Hey! Famke Janssen!
Famke Janssen!
I said that 2 days ago!!

But did you have exclamation points?
How would Pamela Anderson look with brown hair, I wonder.
Like brunette barbie.
But did you have exclamation points?
t sulks
No.
How about Monica Bellucci?
I should have said "action" cred. But I think Famke Janssen is too European to sell WW. Rebecca Romijn, OTOH, I think she has buzz.
Matt, do you need it to be campy? Can't it just be fraught?
Oh, I'll be happy with the fraught. I just think that unlike the previous two Batmans (Batmen?), Bale could actually make Schumaker-style campiness good. I'm not looking for King Tut to be the next big villain, though.
Oh my god. Demi Moore is going to be Wonder Woman, isn't she.
After seeing the Charlie's Angels sequel, I don't have as many objections to this as most seem to.
Aimée, you need to sell it.
In my head, Romijn and Janssen are equally European, but it is often true my lack of cultural granularity has no bearing in reality.
I can't imagine Monica Belluci moving quickly.
Oh, Jessica Alba could do it ... Carrie Ann Moss has some cred, although she's leaner than I envision Diana.
I just pictured Michelle Rodriguez as WW -- try it. It's good for a laugh.
