One of the reasons I love Sondheim's Into the Woods is because he has the other fairy-tale characters turn on the Narrator and toss him to the Giant.

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.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I very much want to see "Stranger Than Fiction." And don't think I'm not upset that this is the second Ferrell film I've wanted to see/have seen this year, because I really really am. I thought I had him figured out, and then he goes and does *my* type of comedy.

Why blame Sofia Coppola for The Godfather III? That's like blaming the puppet for the suckitude of the Saw movies.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Ooh, very cool.
Anyone else seen the BBC2 documentary about the Coen Brothers? I just d/led it but it's not new; filmed while they were making O Brother Where Art Thou. Fascinating insight into how they make movies and how they got started. Loved the brief interview with Jeff Bridges and how he talks about them saying they wrote the character of The Dude specifically with him in mind.

Heh, I remeber Clooney talking about how the Coen's approaced him for O BROTHER... and told him, essentially, "We've got a role that you're perfect for; you play the dumbest man that ever lived!"

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm sorry I forget who asked if "based on a true story" makes Marie Antoinette have to hold up to to some sort of historical accuracy. Anyway... I give you this I am a link

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

I'm looking forward to Happy Feet. It's got dancing penguins, directed by the guy who came up with Babe as well as Mad Max, so how can it miss?
