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.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Munich: what happens is, Efram is kind of a turd and won't say [argue argue argue about abstract nouns], and Avner dorkily says "We're a pair of Israelis in a foreign land, I have to ask you to break bread with my family," and Efram says no and walks away like a great big turd, and Avner is left standing there in Brooklyn alone, and the "what happened after" notes scroll.

You probably only missed about 2 minutes of the movie, but the implication in that scene is that they're arguing in a Brooklyn park that faces Manhattan, and you can see the Twin Towers in the background, and nothing is resolved and all will happen again.

Agree on liking Bana. The coolest thing was when his character was pretending to be German, you could hear his accent change. Double nerd points.

move out and draw fire

Finally saw Serenity. Heading off to threadsuck Firefly, unless Matt's found that DVD of Mal in a bathtub, in which case I'm going to Matt's.

Lee padded his resumé (227 on imdb, to Caine's 120 and Walken's 99) with just tons of films no one ever saw.

I just read a description of Sleepy Hollow that said "with Johnny Depp as Peter Cushing, Christina Ricci as Barbara Steele, and Christopher Walken as Christopher Lee."

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I can't believe that Martin Sheen (151 plus 85 tv [3/4 of which are not "himself"]) hasn't gotten into this conversation.

"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

No DVD of Mal in a bathrub to be found, but based on this I wouldn't rule out Joss making one at some point.

Did we know Nathan's going to be the star of a new sci-fi/horror movie titled Slither that's opening in late March?

Whedonesque posted photos last week. Slither looks very weird.

Yeah, the trailer makes it look like a merger of John Carpenter's The Thing and Night of the Creeps.

Note to self: Do not eat anything within 3 hour radius of movie.

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.

That picture is hilarious.

My new candidate to play the Joker in the next Batman movie.

That's just frightening.

Honestly, no matter where your eyes go it looks like prosthetics rather than real skin and hair. Dude should have been cast in one of the Darkman sequels.
