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.

According to the FAQ on IMDb (for what that's worth), Mako recorded the voice parts before his death. Certainly possible with the production lag time on animation.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Ah, man, they just ran The Sand Pebbles a few weeks ago on Encore, and I almost watched. It was late, though, and the TiFaux was full, and it's a loooong movie. Still, the first thing I ever saw Mako in, and he was wonderful.

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.

Huh. Didn't even realize there was a new TMNT movie coming out.

Bwah! Apparently in France, "March of the Penguins" was named "March of the Emperor" leading to this little gem of a commercial: [link]

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

Bwahahahaha! I love the French.

move out and draw fire

Val Kilmer can definitely act, Juilliard education and all. I think he tends to be a little...difficult...to work with, though. I remember reading something about how the first director on The Island of Dr. Moreau went barking mad as a result of working with Kilmer and went haring off into the outback, not to be seen for months.

That may have been the combination of working with Kilmer AND Brando, though.

Very very late to chime in here on Thunderheart which come to think of it, I could stand to watch again some time soon.

Compassionately intolerant

I've heard the same rumors about Kilmer's on-set behavior...and interviews with him seem to bear out his...um...otherness. Definitely marching to his own bongos.

Brando? Notorious!

I heard Eward Norton talking about working with his heroes, Brando and DeNiro on The Score. In a cafe scene, he's all nervous andafraid that he can't hold his own with these legends. With cameras rolling, Ed looks around and sees that Brando is oblivious to the bottled water he's pouring down the front of his shirt and DeNiro is asleep. So much for awe.

I'm amazed that Ed Norton has only made 20 movies! Credited anyway.

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

Did Polter-Cow see this? [link]

M. Night Shyamalan is apparently going to do a live-action version of Sunil's beloved "Avatar: The Last Airbender".

I haven't gotten around to seeing "Lady In the Water" yet, but I've been told that I'm not missing anything.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

OK, not P-C, but WTF? Knee-jerk reaction is that I'm against a live action version. Why? Why not just make a full-length movie that's animated?!?

::cries::

KKBB fanfiction. Heavy on the gay, but that's not all of it. "Noir Enough" was amazing.
