You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Chewital Ejiofor. Or at least that's how you say it. Chewy for short, like he's a Wookie. Bless. So lickable. Or chewable. Or something.

Jack Davenport gets my vote. For - well anything, actually, but in this instance, for Bond. Because - gah.

I also think he should be Snape instead of Rickman. I love Rickman with a huge love, and I'm glad he's got this high profile role, but he's very much older than the character really should be.

If not Ewan McGregor (and I agree he seems inappropriately boyish), how about his Shallow Grave costar, whatchamacallim? The 9th James Bond? He's very versatile.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Chiwetel. edited 'cause that sounded snippy, and was not meant to be.

I can't even.

Statham's a bit of rough, isn't he?

Remember early Connery (the way Bond should be, dammit)? Big Tam was a plasterer and a bodybuilder before he got into the acting game. I think Statham could do that edgy sauve. All he needs is a tux and a BBC accent.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Yeah, I thought there was probably an E instead of the A, but couldn't be arsed to check. Which I realise sounds really bad, 'cause my post looked like I was trying to be Pedantry!Girl, but I just think that Chewy is such a frakking splendid name that it should be known.

(I'm rather startled if I got the rest of it right? Go team me!)

Art Crawl!!!

You mean Christopher Ecclestone? (Or is there no final 'e'? I can never remember.)

The 9th James Bond. . . . hee.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Yes! Him! He could maybe do it. He's a very versatile actor. Mind you, I don't know that he'd be up for genre work - he got cold feet over Doctor Who pretty fast, didn't he? And Bond is pretty much genre.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Has anyone seen Heights or The Beautiful Country? If so, how are they?

Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'

Jack Davenport gets my vote. For - well anything, actually, but in this instance, for Bond. Because - gah.

Huh. I never would have thought JD for Snape. Goth!Steve would be pretty hot, come to think of it. I do see the Bond and I second your -gah.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

V for Vendetta trailer.

It looks pretty sweet. You'd think Natalie Portman with a British accent would be just like having Kiera Knightley, but it turns out they have different voices.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Have you noticed that there's a council of goths running Warner Brothers?

Batman Begins, The Corpse Bride, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Phantom of the Opera, V for Vendetta...
