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.

See? That's why I begged forgiveness beforehand. It's a nasty cliche and NOT true...um...some of the time. Present company excepted, I'm SURE.

Still don't have the map, the reaper, or the water. Are they actually horror movies?

The map is a big late eighties movie, that was hip horror with a bit of action/adventure and a bit of humor. It starred two young male actors with the same first name. They did a lot of stuff together because of that.

The reaper is within an area. You might say a....

The water you may or may not have seen. It's sort of recent, in that it was another one of those remakes of a moody Japanese horror movie. There's a property of the water that's important, and it's the title of the movie.

I object to the three kids meaning what they mean. Harrumph. That would have been better represented with one kid on a stage.

The water one is also a remake, actually. But recent. Like the blue M&M.

Am I the only one clicking on things and making up movie titles, just in case?
I'll cop to getting more than one that way.

No. I did that with a bunch of them. None of my made up movies were ever correct.

One of my all-time favorites, which made me bang my head when I cottoned on to the clues. I watched the recently released special edition a couple of weeks ago and fell in love with it again. Great music, great dialog and a warm woobie of a director. And the two name-matched stars! How they have changed.

Um, thanks, but if you all had just said "Jilli", I would have gotten that one.

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

OH. Just got the pennies. Was thrown off by being told to count them because I only saw 5. One is obscured by the monkey it's in front of. Damn monkeys.

I just want to take a moment to stand up from behind my desk and applaud Raq for bringing this quiz to us. I've enjoyed this one more (and spent more time on it for better/worse) than I suppose I should have but, dang...that was fun!

Jessica is absolutely me on the coins. I did SUCH a fruitless innerbunny search for that one!
