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.

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

I like Shouty!Pacino

I only like him when he is shouting "Attica!" When he's not in on the joke, he's a lot less funny.

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

Done, Dana. Totally missed that.

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

Aw, I like Shouty!Pacino. I want to see him shout at George Clooney, and then George Clooney can raise his eyebrows at him.

While Brad Pitt eats a sandwich.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

The most disturbing part of reading about Pacino was that he's going to appear in a remake of Rififi.

As a non-Pacino related tangent, I just want to say that I really had no interest at all in seeing "The Wild," and was starting to wonder just how many friggin' CG animated movies about talking animals we were going to get this year.

Then I listen to the trailer with the sound on my TV turned up for a change and realized that the koala in that one is voiced by Eddie Izzard.

Eddie can have my movie money.

Even for THE AVENGERS?

Okay, maybe not for the Avengers.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

just how many friggin' CG animated movies about talking animals we were going to get this year.

I could go for a sequel to O11 starring the penguins from Madagascar.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It could have the tagline: "Penguins are the new 11"

Okay, missing the WHOLE point of the franchise.
