Aww. That was a nice interview.
We gotta go to the crappy town where I'm the hero!

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.

If there are any Wallace & Gromit fans around, DH interviewed Nick Park.
Excellent! Now if we can get Henry Selick's next project off the ground...

Frank- I just read an article in Premier from a couple months ago where Goyer pretty much states that's the plan the for the next two Batman films, provided Chris Nolan is willing to do them.
Light bulb
That's where I read it. OK so more than a rumour then. Phew - REALLLY glad I white-fonted now.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Saw Batman Begins yesterday (the Serentity trailer wasn't attached). Loooooved it. Was channel flipping last night and a trailer for BB came on.
"Uh, honeyyyyy? Wanna go see Batman again tomorrow?"
He seriously thought about it before we decided to wait a week or so and let it settle. Loved it, and I'm not a comics person, at all. So that's from someone entirely free of preconceived ideas about Batman. Loved.

I liked it. I found it interesting how smoothly Spade dealt with what was really a completely unexpected, twisted set of events. He took it all with aplomb. The plot was surprisingly linear; it seemed one thing basically led to the next. And it all ended up tying together pretty neatly.
Also, Peter Lorre is awesome.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Also, Peter Lorre is awesome.
A truism if ever there was one.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I finally saw Blade Runner, and then I saw Batman Begins tonight. Double dose of Rutger-y goodness. Oh, and the movies were pretty good, too.

Because it can never be said enough.
P-C, if you haven't, you should take your next opportunity and see M. Probably the definitive serious (as opposed to comedic) Peter Lorre role. Also not far from the top of Fritz Lang's work.
