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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
He did, but then he unchanged. Hence, the removal of the letterman's sweater. If he's have just kept it on...
I may be projecting my bad mood onto John Travolta. Effer.

True...and he could still pass more easily than she could in the torpedo bra. But I always kind of thought that was about love helping them find stuff they already had. Have I been wrong all this time?

Per the NY Times today, Alida Valli died (I'd link but it requires registration). She was 84. Definitely best known for THE THIRD MAN, but she also major roles in EYES WITHOUT A FACE and SUSPIRIA. I always had a thing for her after seeing THE THIRD MAN (and Hitchcock's THE PARADINE CASE, though it's not a good movie).

Ann, that's a ferret.
I always thought the message of that movie was "put out" not "conform".
Agreed. Because that outfit went well beyond anything the Pink Ladies usually wore.

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

She was conforming to his ideal. That's enough for me.

move out and draw fire
What the hell kind of mental haywire did I just have to call Grease an example of blandification? Conformity, yeah.
That's sad about Valli. I love all three of those movies.
We watched The Adventures of Robin Hood last night. I hadn't seen it in 10 years, maybe longer. Now, I know there was a time when I didn't see the HoYay in everything, but how could I possibly have missed it in this movie? Will Scarlet, I mean.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Mission: Impossible III director J.J. Abrams told Empire Online that news of his involvement in a proposed 11th Star Trek movie made headlines without his authorization, and he wouldn't confirm reports that the film would center on a young James T. Kirk and Spock at Starfleet Academy.
"The whole thing was reported entirely without our cooperation," Abrams told the site. "People learned that I was producing a Star Trek film, that I had an option to direct it. They hear rumors of what the thing was going to be and ran with a story that is not entirely accurate."
But Abrams wouldn't say whether the movie would indeed feature Kirk and Spock. "We've made a pact not to discuss any specifics," he said, adding: "Those characters are so spectacular. I just think that, ... you know, they could live again."
A Paramount spokesman, meanwhile, previously confirmed the accuracy of reports about Abrams' Trek involvement in an interview with SCI FI Wire.

Now tagless for your comfort.
The girls all hated "the dress".
I didn't care for The Dress, either. But I loved the film.
In the novelization, which was clearly written after production had started but before the test screenings, Ducky gets the girl and Blaine is left alone standing on the sidelines.
They filmed both endings. But I believe test audiences prefered getting the rich guy in the end. At least the threw the Duckster the Kristy Swanson bone as the Duckette.

Okay, Abrams' little refutation of the press story now has me imagining Trek Kids in the style of those Antonio Banderas movies from a few years ago.
