You mean the movies themselves weren't actually shot that way? Considering the directors, I wouldn't put it past them...
Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I love that they distressed the "celluloid" for the preview.
Ugh. It really bugs me because I'm watching it in the theatre I work in and my first instinct is to run upstairs and tell the projectionist the print is about to get stuck in the machine! Of course even watching Fight Club at home the millionth time I get a little freaked when they show the sprocket holes.

edit: According to the imdb they were intentionally aged. I guess projectionists everywhere are off the hook or will they carefully audit for any additional scratches after we return the print?

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel
they are going to have fake preview and intermission stuff, so, while a long night at the movies, it will probably be a monster hoot,
There are to be trailers directed by Rob Zombie, Eli Roth and Edger Wright. I think.

Now I'm worried that they are going to work a deliberate film break or two into climactic scenes.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I had dinner with this guy [link] last night. He is here from WETA, working on the new Jim Cameron film with our friend Andy and came along to dinner and the movies with us.
Last week, I had told Andy that I was kinda looking forward to watching the whole Rings trilogy again while i was recovering form my surgery, and right after we met John, he told me the had warned John about my fangirl tendendcies. John said it was six years of his life and he was very proud and would never get tired of talking abnout it. I didn't grill him or anything, although I heard one good story. A lot of the techs were called upon to dress in costume during post-production so they could be digitally inserted to cover, um, mistakes. For example, one of the Orcs write his name on his helmet right before the shot, so his mother could find him in the battle scene. Hee.

Emmett's been bugging me to have a Rings marathon. Maybe we'll drop by. We'll bring salty snacks!
