Giles: Stop that, you two. Riley: He started it... Xander: He called me a bad name! I think it was bad; it might have been Latin.

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.

Frankly, the premise of "Ziggy Stardust helps Wolverine kick Batman's ass using THE AWESOME POWER OF ELECTRICITY" was never really going to live up to the version in my head.

Okay, first of all, you are crazy, because Ziggy Stardust would totally be on Batman's side.

Secondly... or more likely, Batman and Wolverine would resolve their differences by beating Ziggy Stardust to a pulp.

Thirdly: I think I need to send you a copy of Five Fists of Science.

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

Hey, I didn't cast it! You can't pin that crazy on me!

You could have pretended that was the shocking twist. Like, Ziggy was actually in cahoots with Batman the whole time!

move out and draw fire

Oh, me too!

I will still see The Prestige. I figured out the tricks pretty early on in the book, also, so I'll just watch the pretty.

Punishingly Intricate

Other than that, I have no problem with it - Hairspray is more likely to make a better second movie than The Producers did, anyway.

Dude! It's not even being shot in Baltimore! It's bullshit. Although I'm happy if Waters is making some money from it!

I love you.

Always Anti-fascist!

Why do we need another Hairspray? And, not in Baltimore? Bad producers! No TastyKake.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

So, based on my interest in The Hitch-Hiker, Brick, and This Film Is Not Yet Rated, Netflix has recommended The Umbrellas of Cherbourg.

Netflix recommendations truly are a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma.

Maybe they should start picking stocks for me as well.
