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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

In our current living situation, I'd rather the baby penguin. However, when we actually have space for a camel, I'm totally getting one.

Compassionately intolerant

Main beef is...that there were more butt shots than chest shots, and the butt? Not that special.

My thought exactly. Right after, jeez, that was bizarre and I heart Dwight Yokum.

Plus...the kinda stringy calves. I worship Jason Staitham's pecs, (and accent and chrome dome and square jaw)but the rest? I'm disappointed!

Aimee, with all due respect to the terminal cuteness of every baby penguin in existance...when you get one, be sure to get nose plugs too. This former penguin wrangler (Seaworld San Diego, yonks ago) sees them as just one thing...stinky poop machines!

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

I would have liked more Statham shirt off scenes, myself. [link]

AmiƩe, do you know how to knit? 'cause you can knit with camel yarn.

I don't know how to knit. But I might have to learn!

I just saw my first preview for Flyboys.

HOLY CARP! This will probably get me out to the theater. It looks quite spectacular. Dean Devlin producing. Tcheky Karyo! Jean Reno! WWI biplane pilots! Way cool arial battles! Exploding zeppelins!

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

Pan's Labyrinth is the best movie since EVER. It doesn't come out until December (29th!) and I need to see it again RIGHT NOW. Life is so unfair.

(Yes, I know it's going to be at the NYFF. But those tickets are wicked expensive.)

Oooh! Some of my favorite things.

Pan's Labyrinth is the best movie since EVER.

What's it about? Who did it? Who's in it?

You've seen it?! You lucky thing. I can't wait for it.

Pan's Labyrinth.

I want to marry Guillermo del Toro's spicy brains. This is a movie I think Jim Henson would have made if he's ever done a truly adult film. It's got all your standard fairy tale tropes, but it's dark as hell for a movie about a little girl who may or may not be a reincarnated princess from the underworld. And beautifully shot -- it shifts POVs absolutely seamlessly.

[eta: Jilli! I need you to see it so I can find out if we agree on Certain Things. I suspect we will.]
