The real question is who should take Peter Stormare's place as the quiet Frenchman?
Pepe the King Prawn.
Strong like an Amazon.

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 know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
So, in Downfall, is there a Muppet who could do a good Hitler?
I think we're back to Sam The Eagle.
Oh totally.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I dunno - Sam seems too stoic for that role. (In the movie, Hitler spends much of his time yelling and screaming at his generals.)

Yeah, that could work.
He could spend the movie in a garbage can with wheels, and Goebbels could push him around the bunker....

Imagine Gonzo giving impassioned speeches to vast throngs of jackbooted chickens...

Huh, now I'm imagining Grover waving his arms in the air and screaming "Goebby BABY!!!!"

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.
Sometimes the straight to DVD surprises.
Cruel Intentions 2 gave us the giggles and guffaws--yeah, we watched as a group. If you've seen Cruel Intentions you've seen Cruel Intentions 2, which is basically the same movie, only self referential of the original--wrap your head around that. Amy Adams was wonderful as Catherine.

Cruel Intentions 2 was a reworked Fox pilot, with bonus nudity! That I (self-pimp alert)recapped.

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