No, I didn't, though I read it was faked, which sounds very amusing.
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.
TiVo showed me the first four minutes of Stealth. I'm pretty sure it's not my movie (props to Foxx for keeping us on our toes?), but I wonder how much effective the first four minutes are as a selling tool.
I think I'd be interested in seeing the first four minutes of more movies before I made my decision.

Maybe a lot of other people saw it, and had the same reaction as you? [link]
They did this with the Dawn of the Dead remke over here they showed the whole precredits bit. Which was the best bit of the movie.
They did that over here, too. It's the only part I've seen, but it's fabulous.
Has anyone here heard of scarecrow.com? [link] They seem to have really some good prices on dvds, but I've never heard of them before.
I hereby dutifully report that I've watched Must Love Dogs over the weekend and... I really can't recommend it. I mean, it's not horrible, but it has no original bone whatsoever in its body and the central love story is very much lacking in sparks, which seem impossible because John Cusack and Diane Lane are two of the most appealing actors working today, but what can I say? The chemistry just isn't there. The writing is really limp, cliches flow like a river and the obligatory happy ending felt very much tacked on. It has a few cute bits (although not enough cute dog stuff, which I was hoping for) and I coveted Diane's wardrobe, but that's about it. It's nowhere in the Say Anything league, not even High Fidelity-esque, and perhaps closest to Serendipity in terms of quality.
Cusack's character felt v. Lloyd-clone though, in a watered-down way.
When I heard that Must Love Dogs wasn't very good, I decided to spend no money and re-watch High Fidelity instead.
It's still my favorite romantic movie ever.
"Well, I've been thinking with my gut since I was 14, and frankly speaking, I've come to the conclusion that my guts have shit for brains."
Saw Closer this weekend.
Still not sure about it except Clive Owen is kinda vulgar and Jude is just hawt hawt hawt who can't keep it in his pants and wow how art imitates life.
