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'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sean, here. There was even a book.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Damn.
I thought I knew what wank was, but clearly, I was mistaken.

The Daniel Radcliffe thing is a clip from an upcoming episode of Extras, Ricky Gervais' latest series. I saw it when I was in England last month and laughed my fool head off. I think that's the best acting that kid's done yet!

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I think the LotR chick who believed that she was physically transforming into Elijah Wood/Frodo Baggins and still had people defending her after making that public wins the blue ribbon for nuttiness.
That story still sets the standard for all fandom crazy, I think. She was spotted at the last HP film premiere in New York dressed up like Harry, too, so apparently her "changes" aren't just limited to one fandom idol.
Does anyone think that "The Illusionist" is going to get big enough to make it across the pond? I really hope so, because I want to see it and "The Prestige" back to back.

Actually, the Radcliffe episode was on last week. Tonight it's Chris Martin and Ronnie Corbett.
Extras is real watch-from-the-hall stuff. So funny and so, so painful. Mind you, it has given us sixtysomething Diana Rigg with a condom stuck on her head and Orlando Bloom with a Depp-inferiority-complex so, you know, who's complaining?

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel

I'm finding it to be too cartoony. Like, even, compared to Season 1. It seems like something Gervais and Merchant would have written ten years before The Office. Jack Dee's Lead Balloon on BBC4 is threading the same ground tonally but without the David Bowie-writes-an-incredibly-cruel-song-about-you type craziness.

Hivemind question: You know that Gap commercial that has Audrey Hepburn dancing around in pegged pants and penny loafers? What movie is that clip from?
