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.

Orlando needs to age more before he can pull of the he-man approach.

Orlando may need to age before he call pull of the now-man approach.

I think a lot of English actors are more practiced at it, since they have a hell of a lot of period TV compared to the US.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I just realized (by looking it up on imdb) that I was 11 when I saw Lace...the miniseries. Older than I thought.

However, I had read the (racier) book before I saw it.

Goash that story was fascinating to me at that age. Now, NSM.

Geoffrey Rush has been in a lot of different historical period films (SiL, Quills, Pirates to name a few).

I'm trying to think of any other Americans other than Johnny Depp, and sad to say, not many others come to mind. Robert Downey, Jr., maybe (Restoration)? I'd like to see Liev Schreiber in something more period than 1969 (A Walk on the Moon)--I've heard he's amazing doing Shakespeare on stage.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Joseph Fiennes can do no other than period. Daniel Day-Lewis, of course.

Speaking of bad sequels, I just saw this over at Mutant Reviewers from Hell:

  • The author of the Jaws novel said at a recent convention that Jaws 5 was moving forward. We're gonna need a bigger movie library.

  • Garfield 2 is marching forward, and Bill Murray looks likely to return as the fat cat's voice.

  • Hugh Jackman will be one of the producers for Wolverine, the X-Men spinoff set to film after X-Men 3 wraps.

  • Underworld 2 has been pushed back to a January 2006 release.

  • Due to spectacularly bad pre-reviews and word of mouth, the remake of The Pink Panther with Steve Martin has been officially "postponed" for the time being.

  • Star Trek's Jonathan Frakes will be directing The Librarian: Return to King Solomon's Mines.

  • Calistia Flockhart is in talks to be in Indiana Jones 4.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Return to King Solomon's Mines.

Why?? Why are they going back?? The first trip sucked so much!

Calistia Flockhart is in talks to be in Indiana Jones 4.

Maybe he can use her to pick a lock or something.
