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.

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

He was great, lots of fun.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Sweeet. May have to pop in and see that one. And not just for Jason Statham's ass, I swear!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Mrs. Henderson Presents is simply lovely.

Yes, yes it is. And I want every one of her outfits, dammit. GORgeous fabrics and silhouettes and cut and draping. Costume porn.

Oh good. Not just me, then.

Wonderful movie, too. You think it's just candy floss and soft porn, and then, wow, there's a real there there.

move out and draw fire

Wait, the new Wicker Man involves the world being run by women? I mean, Nic Cage in a bear suit was going to be bad enough.

We saw Volver and Nacho Libre yesterday. Volver was fab, if a little long, Nacho Libre tried hard, but didn't hit any of the marks it was aiming for, it felt like. And that's coming from a huge Jack Black/ Napoleon Dynamite fan, so I can imagine how it must be for people not enamoured of either of those.

Who directed Volver, Jars? Is that an Almadovar flick? Love his stuff.

ETA: IMdb says it is! Squeeee! Will definitely have to check it out.

Yup. DH actually liked it, too. Even though the boobies helped me convince him. I nearly choked at Christopher Guest's "Midlands" conversation. So. Damn. Funny.

Yup, if you like his stuff, it's definitely worth checking out. Oh women characters who are actual characters, how I love you...
