Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

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.

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.

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

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

Impulse.

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

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

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).

It's not the narrative relative to canon, it's the narrative relative to them all looking Smallville!TV-aged that I wonder at.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I think you need to upgrade to QT7, Sean.

I have QT7(.0.3 -- came with the iTunes upgrade I just did) and saw the same thing on my PC. Then I went to the HD links and watched those just fine instead.

What ita said. I'm at 7.0.4. I don't have time this morning to watch one of the HD links, but I'll try that this weekend.

Now I'm off to visit relatives for the weekend.
