Xander ,'Same Time, Same Place'
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.
Script review of V for Vendetta. Summary: fanboy purist unhappy.
I'm not so happy with those changes either. They really miss the point. But there is good stuff that is retained so I'll still go.
(Hec, if you're out there, every picture I see of NP with the short hair appeals to me more and more. I might come to your way of thinking eventually)
Heh. She's way too beautiful for a buzzcut to do anything except underscore her pretty. She's like Remedios the Beauty that way.
Is there a synopsis of the original script for The Island anywhere on the Net?
Must Love Dogs. [link]
Looks like a fairly generic romantic comedy, but has John Cusack (JOHN CUSACK!!), Diane Lane. Plug, dogs! I've heard about this one before, but my local theater has a sneak preview this Saturday and I think I may go.
I enjoyed the book.
Plus, I just read (in the AKC Gazette) that the director adopted the two Newfoundlands that played the part of the Newfie in the movie.
I just saw Willard. It was what you'd expect from a movie about Crispin Glover going crazy and getting rats to eat people.
But Strega once said the DVD was worth checking out for Crispin Hellion Glover's video for "Ben" and the commentary.
Oh my God. The commentary.
It's...hilarious. And not intentionally. He is like the most humorless man alive, and he desperately wants to people see his new film What Is It? and he knows the name of everyone who is in his video, and Hollywood is evil with the money and the budgets and the glavin.
Bond casting is down to 4 people - but we don't know who. Although, according to that article, the front runner may well be Croatian.
ETA: All of my favorite candidates were never actually candidates. Aamir Khan, Jonathon Rhys-Myers, Don Cheadle . . . . And, yes, I am aware that I probably spelled every one of those names wrong.
P-C, take a look at the discussion we had in Movies back in January: evil jimi "Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned" Jan 22, 2005 4:14:24 am PST

No, no. He's like Andy Kaufman. As much as he's like anything in this dimension.
You need to hear The Big Problem.

Ooh, I would have loved to see either Aamir Khan or Don Cheadle as Bond. I don't think JRM would really work well in the role, as much as I love him.

Doesn't Bond often have to run? That knocks him right out of contention.
