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.

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

I figure Singer leaving for Superman Returns will mean two comic book movies I don't love.

I mean, I haven't seen a still or character shot from Superman Returns that's excited me, or at least made me feel all was right with the franchise. Brandon looks cheesier than Christopher, cheesier than Dean, and although it's fairly likely he can act better than Tom, he still looks less Super.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

psst. the real reason Superman changes clothes in phone booths is that he's an exhibitionist....

At the speed he does it, must be angling to show off to Jessie Quick or Mary Marvel then.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

(and starring Hugh Jackman, Alan Cumming and Sir Ian McKellan)

Are they trying to say Hugh Jackman is gay, or just hot?? Also, in non-movies news, it turns out my friend's boyfriend is an editor at Radar.

Very possibly the two geekiest responses ever. And I'm in that class for recognizing them.

Yeah, we're a bunch of dorks.

That promo said that Superman is returning after an absence. Why the hell are they so young, then? Are we talking anything more than a long weekend?

Anyone else having problems with the Superman trailer? When I load the page it just gives me a faded out Quicktime logo with a question mark over it in the letterbox where the trailer is supposed to appear.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

They're incorporating some fuzzy history for this, the sort you'd get in a comic book version of this same story. It's based off the continuity of the first two Superman films, ignoring the others (which I'd call a good move).
