I'm just trying to tell you that we have nothing in common besides both of us liking your penis.

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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
So I finally saw Raising Arizona.
Er.
That was weird. Often dumb. But always strange and a little off-kilter. I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it. My favorite thing about it was Leonard Smalls.

The trailers make it look amazingly cool, but apparently it is not.

the dialogue is cheesy, the acting is mediocre and the plot is pointless.
plus, it's always raining. i guess that was supposed to make it creepy. or something. it's even more ridiculous when it's constantly raining and the main character is driving a convertible with the top down for pretty much the whole movie.
Taylor in his skivvies though? hum. in. a.

We got a sitter & went to see Children of Men tonight. I'm still a bit blown away to actually write anything cogent about it.

They did? They must have played different trailers than the ones I saw,which made it look like a DavidDeCoteau movie with a vastly bigger SFX and soundtrack budget.

Much like A Life Less Ordinary, I find that that movie is gold when Holly Hunter is on screen and very questionable when she's not.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I'm sorry, how can you not love a chase scene involving stolen Huggies and a random old man in a pickup truck telling Nicolas Cage, "Son, you got a panty on your head." while the hilbilly soundtrack wails and a pack of suburban dogs invades a household --?
I despair of you people.
