Isn't it Soderbergh who's going to release his next film in theaters and on DVD the same day?

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.

I need to go pray, or agitate for a Free Tibet, or something. I spent my college years mocking and tormenting the business majors.

I wonder if a bit of anticipation time wouldn't help sales more than having the DVDs ready at the door. Serenity is the only movie I would have bought on my way out of the theater this year, and there was never any doubt about me getting a copy almost as soon as it went on sale.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's fine, it's fine, people. I'm just back with the same old guy from forever ago. And I like the superhero movies! I just like the other stuff, too, which I'll never see if I only go to the movies with him.
Speaking of movies, that Good Night, and Good Luck was some good stuff. I was amazed by how much actual footage they used. At one point, I wasn't sure that it was, but sure enough, that was actually Bobby Kennedy off to the side of the frame, wasn't it?

All the McCarthy footage was actual McCarthy. I had the thought (as I'm sure many others have, like duh, the producers) that it was the only choice. You couldn't have found a better psychowhackoidiot portrayal than from the original man.
Funny part was that the audience in my theater often hissed when that footage was shown. It was largely seniors.

It was all the stuff after he left the one hearing that had me wondering, mostly just because it was so long. Amazing stuff, really.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I heard that some audience complained about that character being overacted.

Hah. And depressing (that he got away with it FOR REAL.)

If DVDs of Mirrormask had been for sale at the concession stand when I walked out of the movie, I would have bought it then and there.
