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.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

One of my friends has a personal grudge against Aronofsky for stealing work and making self-aggrandizing claims in the past. Apparently, his buddy and Aronofsky wrote a short together that became Aronofsky's first film, but Aronofsky refused to give the friend o' friend credit for his work because A's an auteur, even when someone helps him.

OK, if you are ready for another movie quiz, this one is really well done and pretty. [link]

Curse you, Raq!

I have 38/50, and I'll be damned if I can figure out the rest. I'm only slightly certain I've figured out which are the twelve remaining discrete images. There's a bundle around the staircase in the center of the painting, and I'm not 100% which are seperate clues, which I'm sure makes them harder to parse.

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

Dear Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy,

Thank you so much for the fantastic character notes and set pieces! They really served me well and helped to advance my own plotlines in a cleverly dry observational way. I look forward to working with you again soon!

Love,

Stranger Than Fiction

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Describe them? I got some of those. But I'm only 25/50 right now.

There's a bundle around the staircase in the center of the painting, and I'm not 100% which are seperate clues, which I'm sure makes them harder to parse.

The things in the staircase area that are clues are:

the stairs, the jawbone, the two men back to back, the M&M in the gown thing, the pile of jack-o-lanterns

I have 48, but I'm stuck on the two guys and the grim reaper in the circle (There was never a movie called "Ring Around the Reaper, was there?)

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Also in that area are the collection of wooden things at the top of the stairs, the ripped laundry, and the Blue M&M's toy.

Casting hints, not direct answers:

The two guys on the stairs featured Sarah Michelle Gellar.

The Grim Reaper in the Circle What do Christopher Walken and Michael Anthony Hall have in common?

"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

Well,it took me 45 minutes to get 36 of them, and I'm stumped by the rest. (I dont' even see all 14 remaining options).

Check out the very edges and corners.
