So ita, you're saying that my whitefonting of Bruce Willis getting shot in the first ten minutes was perhaps a little excessive and silly?
Riley: Maybe I should just let you rest. Buffy: You sure? I bet if you just lay down with me- Riley: Nothing you are about to say will lead to rest.

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.

Maybe the CGI was too expensive to bring the character back?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Aimée, I'm guessing IMDB only has the big ones this early on.

Nope. Just that I'd be surprised if anyone here both cared and didn't know.
I'd be surprised if anyone would care to be protected from what I whitefonted too, but I still did it.

I hope so.
I *really* liked Colossus. What a kick ass mutation.

I like how your [edit: ita's] cutting and pasting totally destroyed the whitefonted part. I think that's only appropriate, considering.

I started to tag it, and got lazy.
I'm rebuking (also chastising, but no spanking, that would be odd) myself right now.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I like both Identity and The Game.
Identity did give me the "Oh god, does every movie need a twist?" feeling at first, but I saw it again and decided it was a pretty cool movie. Plus, John Cusack.

I like twists that make the movie make more sense, rather than less. Like, that one bit of information triggers a kind of backwards awareness of what came before, changing your perception of the whole. The twists that are just tacked on to the ends of things for the sake of it annoy me. I prefer "Oooh" to "huh?", I guess.
I'm also slightly worried about the X-Men 3 thing. Gambit and Angel are two of the characters I've been most looking forward to seeing because, well, I'm shallow and they're hot. I'm going to take some convincing on the Angel as a chick thing. I'm excited about Beast and Gambit though.
