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.

My favorite death scene ever was Samuel L. Jackson in Deep Blue Sea
Oh, hell yes. I think there may have even been applause in my theater. It was just that good.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Michael Bay is pissed The Island is flopping.
"It could be the subject matter, the lack of stars," he said. "I'm not blaming the whole thing on the marketers."
The opening for the $124-million film means "The Island" grossed just 10% of its production budget — placing it ahead of "Cinderella Man" and "Kingdom of Heaven" as the most expensive dud of the summer so far.

"It could be the subject matter, the lack of stars," he said. "I'm not blaming the whole thing on the marketers."
Huh? It's got stars. Oh, maybe he meant to say "the lack of writers."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Ewan McGregor, Scarlett Johansson, Djimon Hounsou, and Sean Bean aren't stars?
Not in the Hollywood sense. A star is somebody who can open a movie - that is, draw a large audience based on the actor, not the character or the movie. There are only four or five stars in Hollywood by this definition.
