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.

Mark Ruffalo was in episodes of due South? Really?

Yep. 1x09, "A Cop, A Mountie, and a Baby."

move out and draw fire

Just watched the trailer for Narnia.

The look is good. The armies look like they were programmed using MASSIVE, which, golly, they were! Aslan has a couple Jesus-sunray iconic poses.

I don't know if the music for the trailer is the actual music, though. At first I would've sworn it was Last of the Mohicans, but then it went into a choir sining "Spiritus Sanctus" (not the creepy Omen version.)

So anyway, looks like they aren't completely secularizing it.

And my friend had a different perspective on the added dance instruction scene in the HP:GoF trailer: a) he thought it was very much something a British public school would do, and b) he thought they wrote it to play to Rupert Grint's strengths and give him something to do.

Punishingly Intricate

I'll have to keep track in here if anyone goes to see that Jodie Foster airplane movie because I want to be spoiled for it. And I know I'd never be able to sit through the movie. Even with Peter Sarsgaard and Sean Bean deliciousness I think the frantic mother/nobody believing her thing would bug me way too much. But I do want to know what's up with it.

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

Aslan has a couple Jesus-sunray iconic poses.

Jesus Sunray Iconic Pose would make a good album title.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

that Jodie Foster airplane movie

The previews sure make it look like they, uh, borrowed extensively from The Lady Vanishes.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

The trailer I saw looked like a mid-air collision of Passenger 57 and Not Without My Daughter.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

lisah, The Movie Spoiler is a good place to start.
