Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell  

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.

"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

I think Beckinsale turns in a respectable acting job in both Underworld movies, although they're mired in two confusing muddles of plot wherein her apparently ADD hubby reacts to any inconsistencies by whitewashing them in gunfire and speeded-up action sequences.

As for Van Helsing? I got nuthin'.

move out and draw fire

I need to see CCF. It sat around my house for months back when I first got into Buffy, so when choosing a DVD, Buffy always won over CCF. Now it's gone, away with the Roomie.

Hey. New board.

Is it good or bad that the Slither trailer made me laugh until tears came to my eyes?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Considering the director got his start in Tromaville, I'd say it's at least an appropriate response.

I'm thinking good myself, Gris. It looks unbelievably disgusting. And funny as hell.

"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

Oh, dear Jesus, that was wrong. Hilarious, but so very, very wrong.

I was already planning on seeing it for Nathan Fillion, but the trailers sealed the deal.

Compassionately intolerant

Wrong in the wrongest of ways that wrong can be.

I loved Tremors. But this one ups the goo-factor a bit past what I think I can stomach in the theatre. Netflix, it will have to be.
