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.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Paris Hilton considered for the role of the young Mother Teresa? [link]

Until someone tells me otherwise, I'm gonna assume that Hilton is being punk'd in a really creative way.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I heard about that on the radio the other day, and immediately envisioned Holy Movie in the Scary Movie and Date Movie mold.

We understand -- kind of -- that there is a class of moviegoer that will be charmed by pictures revolving around the antics of dogs, horses, or sassy kangaroos. But if you are in that class and think this one looks kind of good, you need to have all the facts: Entertainment Weekly says that Paul Walker plays a scientist.

Oooooh, burn.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I feel protective of On A Clear Day. Sure, we've seen the movie a million times, but it's charming! Billy Boyd!

And I wonder what's the deal with black guys in fat-maternal-figure drag. Their target audiences seem to love it. There's probably a sociology study in there.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

The trailer for On a Clear Day is very funny, and full of British quirk.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I actually liked HHGttG (though I didn't love it) but otherwise I agree with him.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

I think that an X3 directed by Bryan Singer instead of Brett Ratner should be added to that list.
