I meant within the movies plot, not that the movie itself was spawned from the lower depths of hell.
Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
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 suppose you could argue that there's a subtext to that movie that says, I am Barney, destroyer of worlds.
Oops, I misread and thought Perkins was asking about I, Robot.
Oops, I misread and thought Perkins was asking about I, Robot.
You know, I thought that sounded a lot more interesting than the 5 minutes I did sit through.
That would be a hilarious movie though. All sappy, sentimental G-rated kid's stuff for the first half hour and then the bloody Robot Revolution begins!
Anybody seen Code 46, a Tim Robbins/Samantha Morton futuristic movie from 2003? I was flicking channels last night and caught most of it and found it kind of haunting and interesting. Major cool points for having Mick Jones of the Clash singing Should I Stay or Should I Go in the karaoke bar.
Code 46
I barely remember it now, but I remember wishing it were better, because I really liked the premise and the actors.
That's in my queue. I'm hit-or-miss on Winterbottom films, but I think they're all worth a viewing.
I think I may be the only person besides Winterbottom himself who liked 9 Songs for the music and concert footage as well as the sex.
Some of the reviewers seemed to like those sections much more than the sex, too.
