Buffy ,'Beneath You'
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.
Raul Julia, so wonderful. The BF worked with him at the NY Shakespeare festival and had nothing but good to say about him.
A little H-wood gossip: A friend had a job interview for a tech position with Christopher Guest and Guest asked him if he got along with actors. He said "I worked with your wife, you can ask her." At this point Guest (who is a pretty serious and shy guy IRL) smiled and said "Well, she gets along with everyone." Nice to hear him bragging on Jamie Lee like that.
I saw Raul Julia in a revival of Man of La Mancha about a year before he died. He was pretty awesome. So magnetic.
Robin's gossip gives me a chance to namedrop - I have had two nice celeb-sighting/encounters with Christopher Guest and Jamie Lee Curtis over the years. Sat a couple rows in front of them at a Shawn Colvin concert at the Wiltern, and was at the same climbing gym in Santa Monica when they brought the kids in to climb. Guest just hung out, but Jamie Lee climbed.
Although I like the X3 casting of Beast, he's going to be old enough to be Angel's father. Which isn't quite right.

Have they said that Kelsey would actually physically play the role, cause I could see them trying to CGI Beast. It's still going to be weird hearing Sideshow Bob's voice in an X-Men movie (if advance word doesn't put me off it completely).
It's Langella's voice that really makes that particular Dracula so, so sexy. Well, the tall, and the looming, and the eyes.. and the voice, yeah. So I can imagine Raul Julia quite well in the same version. Trivia: Kate Nelligan was 'Mina in the Langella version.

Good point. I'd assumed they'd feature the unfurred Beast, at least initially. They crapped out on the fur for Nightcrawler, after all.
Did you guys notice the date on the DvH news? Sometime in 2000. Sooooo . . . .

I'm sure Scully from Monsters Inc. is available.
Sully. Kitty's name is Sully.
