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.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

Yeah, I was fudging the Venn diagrams on purpose--it's possible to have fightin'/intrigue, fightin'/corset, and intrigue/corset without fightin'/intrigue/corset, but that'd be three circles each with parts that don't overlap any of the others, which would invalidate my first statement (only fightin' or intrigue/corset) by creating more than two types.

Holy God, I can actually see my old professor pacing in front of the board like a short, bald caged tiger, drawing up the circles and occasionally digressing in classic Greek.

[In the less strict sense that's common with "there are X kinds of people" statements, you're allowed to have intrigue or corsets with your fightin' as long as you don't have both; it's the fightin' that defines your category.]

Okay, bed now. Realizing where I probably did part of my logic wrong tomorrow.

hip deep in pie

Colin Firth was adorable and not stuck with doing his usual broody stuff.

Robin, if you haven't, you should see My Life So Far, where Firth plays an ecentric inventor and father. A funny, quirky little movie.

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

Watched The Boondock Saints yesterday. Loved it. That is all....

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I haven't watched this yet because it's taking forever to load, but Fight Club trailer as romantic comedy.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

if you haven't, you should see My Life So Far

Sue, my Firth-love means I have not only seen that film (and really liked it!) but also the original Fever Pitch and even Where the Truth Lies.

I will go far and wide to see the oh so wonderful Colin.

Fight Club trailer as romantic comedy.

Bwahahahahahaha!

The use of "I Believe I Can Fly" is what really makes the trailer.

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

Man, if only the announcer had a good voice.

Yeah, that was not a good Voiceover Guy. But I guess parodiers can't be choosers sometimes...

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

You're right-- that announcer was painful. he sounded almost computer generated.
