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.

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

Now tagless for your comfort.
Warner Bros. confirmed Monday that Heath Ledger will be playing The Joker in The Dark Knight, the next installment of the rejuvenated Batman franchise.
I'm glad somebody's thinking of the slash writers out there.

Aside from Brokeback Mountain I haven't noticed any particular aura of slashiness around him. Now, if they'd wanted to cast Ewan McGregor in the role opposite Bale...

Owen Wilson responds to Steely Dan's letter: "I have never heard the song `Cousin Dupree' and I don't even know who this gentleman, Mr. Steely Dan, is. I hope this helps to clear things up and I can get back to concentrating on my new movie, `HEY 19.'"

Shit's all sorts of different now.
See, when I read the letter from Steely Dan, I thought they were just giving Owen a bunch of shit. Maybe not....

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Heh. I wonder how the studio feels about that comment.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I think that the studio would be thrilled with any sort of publicity at all for Dupree. They probably sent a big thank-you gift to Steely Dan.

Compassionately intolerant
Nice bit of cross promotion, that. Masses of ink for very little trouble. Free publicity...it even made it into the Washington Post two days this week already. The 'open letter to Luke Wilson' is pretty hilarious.
I'd expect nothing less from friends of Wes Anderson!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I thought they were just giving Owen a bunch of shit. Maybe not....
I think they are. I think Owen's playing along with it. "Hey Nineteen" is a nice touch. Unsurprising that the WaPo isn't quite getting it....
