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.

I had been talking about doing a Gothy Double Feature of Lost Boys and The Crow, and I was wondering how to round it out for the new millennium. Any thoughts?

That I wish I could be there when you do this. So fun!

(Underworld is currently the mental frontrunner, but it has even less of a plot than the other two.)

Underworld would be good. If you want something with a plot, you could always choose Gypsy 83 (roadtrip/coming of age movie about a goth girl and her fabulous gay boyfriend).

Moulin Rouge? The first Blade movie? (I love the opening nightclub scene.) Sleepy Hollow?

How have I never heard of this movie?? Off to Netflix!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Sleepy Hollow was '99, as was The Matrix (which is my personal favorite). Unfortunately, because Sleepy Hollow would be perfect. Blade is '98 (and how did I not know the working title was "Blade, the Vampire Slayer"? LOVE).

Gypsy 83 (roadtrip/coming of age movie about a goth girl and her fabulous gay boyfriend).

Ooooooh! Netflixed!

That I wish I could be there when you do this. So fun!

Perhaps we could have simul-double features!

Along with The Corpse Bride, The Nightmare Before Christmas?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think Corpse Bride or Mirrormask. Didn't they open on the same day?
