So I don't need to click.
You've already been scarred by seeing far more than is on display at that link, haven't you?
I'm just trying to tell you that we have nothing in common besides both of us liking your penis.

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.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I never got that impression from either the trailer, nor from the people I know that saw it, though.
I give! Except for the part where I thought the trailer made it look like a disastrous star vehicle. I never heard one way or the other whether it was actually any good until today.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Carrot top got buff! The pictures are pretty fucking frightening. Not sure why I'm posting the link here, except I feel compelled to share the horror.
My eyes! Me EYES!!

Compassionately intolerant
I just watched the Aeon Flux trailer and, besides, "Get on whichyerasskicking self Charlize", all I could think was...how tragically Equilibrium. (minus the Bale)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think Charlize has a perfectly slow and threatening yet female voice, but her physicality doesn't work for me. Extensive FX not helping.

Hey. New board.
(shrug) I'm neutral on that trailer. It looks pretty cool in lots of ways (I did like the cartoon, complete lack of understanding aside), but I see your point, ita, about her physicality.
I guess i'll decide come December.

Loved the cartoon. Am "eh" on the live action.

That doesn't look nearly funny enough. Not that I really expected them to do a 90-minute shaggy dog story, but... they should have. Just for me.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Yeah, the FX are too much. There's stretching believability and there's shattering it into little tiny pieces. When something is live-action, I need some kind of acceptable premis to explain people doing super-human things or it else it just takes me right out of it. I'm much forgiving with animation, though I'm not sure why beyond the fact that it's "less real."
