Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video  

Closed Film and TV threads

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.

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.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

In two words, James Cromwell.

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.

I paid more attention to the "Librarian" part of that title--I'm guessing that it's the sequel to the so-cheesy-it's-great Noah Wyle TNT movie. As long as they have Bob Newhart kicking more bad-guy butt in this one, I'm definitely tuning in.

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

What, no mention of Bubba Nosferatu?

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

I just started watching Birth. It would be very wrong for me to be biased from the start because of Nicole Kidman's hair, right?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Let's start with David Mamet rewriting that TV minisieres with Phoebe Cates. What was it? Lace?
