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.

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

And III is better than IV.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

What? No love for "Supergirl"?

"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'd argue that point, Tom. I at least had fun MST3King IV at the theater with a pal, but III was just horribly unwatchable to me.

I thought it was cute. But I was 10.

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

Were they as bad as the Rocky movie where Rocky fought Communism?

Why did you have to mention IV, Scola? What did we ever do to you?

And kicked Communism's ass.

And made out with Communism's hot wife.

Rocky IV came out, and then Communism collapsed. Coincidence?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

In non-Superman/Rocky news, I heard a decent review for the PotC sequel on the radio this morning. The Chicago Tribune's movie reviewer gave it 3 stars and said that he thought it was better than the original (which he didn't see until after he saw the sequel--he admitted his ranking of the two might have been different if he had seen them in order). He thought it suffered from the same main problem that the first one had--being a bit too long at 2 1/2 hours--but had better action sequences and more fun. Depp is definitely the key player; he thought that both Bloom and Knightly faded to the background rather quickly.
