I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

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 have it on video, it may be on DVD and/or *ahem*able.

It's on DVD - Anchor Bay did a regular DVD and a boxed set (comes in a wooden box with scorch marks on it).

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

A reviewer on Amazon said it best. If you haven't seen the original, watch it before seeing the remake b/c all the remake will do is spoil the ending of the original, without giving you any of it's other great qualities.

move out and draw fire

Anchor Bay did a regular DVD and a boxed set (comes in a wooden box with scorch marks on it).

This is the one I have.

Wow, who would have known that the end of THGttG would make me cry! Huh.

Now, I want to go feed a dolpin.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

It made me sniffle a little, I'll admit.

Ah, I'm just in a sniffly mood. Just started the Chronicles of Narnia and the scene with the kids at the train station had me tearing up out of sympathy. Must be something to do with the weather out, today. All gray and drippy.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Sail, I do that at every WWII kids on the train scenes--CoN, Five Children and It, Hope and Glory. Fucking hormones.

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

What does Mike Judge have to do to get a movie released and marketed? He could stop making satires as merciless and spot-on as this one, for one thing. His second film in seven years, "Idiocracy," was completed nearly two years ago and dumped on Friday, reviewless and unmarketed, in six markets not including New York and San Francisco.

The evil is this way?

I will never see "The Wicker Man" because I read the reviews. But now I have to ask: *** Why would Cage's character be in a bear costume? The only thing I can come up with is that Cage lost some sort of bet with the director, refused to pay, and this was his punishment. I'm thinking that's not the official explanation though. ***
