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.

Now tagless for your comfort.

If you think Underworld: Evolution is crap, say, "It's crap." But saying that a werewolf/vampire movie is a retread of The Matrix just because the leading lady is in latex sounds stupid.

I'm hoping it's less "crap" and more "deliciously cheesy."

Yes, I'm going for Beckinsale in latex and I don't care who knows it.

If I only had a brain...

Did it start that narrowly? I don't remember.

It started out in two cities and spread in waves. I remember being very, very bitter because you in LA saw it *months* before it reached Charlotte.

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

I remember being very, very bitter because you in LA saw it *months* before it reached Charlotte.

Hey, don't look at me. I was in Michigan. It's them you resent. And rightfully so.

Of the younger generation, I'd say Toni Collett consistently comes off as forceful and strong, no matter which role she plays.

The three movies I associate her most with are Muriel's Wedding, Velvet Goldmine, and The Sixth Sense. In each she struck me as being swept up by events without actually having much agency or applying her will to making choices.

Your tag here.

I just saw Underworld 2 and thought it was pretty damn awesome; better than the first.

For me, the Scott Speedman nude scene guarantees that up front.

I remember being very, very bitter because you in LA saw it *months* before it reached Charlotte.

But you and I saw it together in Portland.

Shelly Winters, too. How strange, they were married to each other at one time.
