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.

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.

But the non-voiceover parts were great.

So, are trailer remixes the mainstream vids? Well, more mainstream, anyway? It sure seems like it. Or maybe that was just me wondering why they were featuring the chick in the trailer.

hip deep in pie

Where the Truth Lies

You know, I am a Firth and Egoyan fan, and I still haven't seen this. But I have seen the original Fever Pitch.

The girl who'll be playing Luna was in all the Irish papers when I was home last week. She's a complete fangirl. They had pictures of her queuing at midnight for the last book, wearing beaded golden snitch earrings that she'd made herself. She must be the most excited girl on the planet.
