my fave Oscar recap (even though I actually enjoyed the show...I think being boring is part of the big award show thing!)
Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.

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.
Yes we're getting Hot Fuzz in the States April 20th. Odd choice of top billing in the credits on the Yahoo page. Maybe they think nobody in the US knows who Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright are ...
Starring: Jim Broadbent, Steve Coogan, Timothy Dalton, Paddy Considine, Edward Woodward

And in Netflix are craxys news. This cracked me up:

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
...Marty not only won, but he got to accept with Coppola, Lucas and Spielberg standing onstage next to him.
Made all the more interesting if you've read Peter Biskind's, Easy Riders, Raging Bulls. A book about Hollywood in the 70s that is well worth reading.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
I wish Pan's Labyrinth had won Best Foreign Film, but The Lives of Others looked really good and was the only one I could see it losing to.
No love for Volver? I didn't see either of these two movies, but I did see Volver and I loved it. Not as much as some other Almodovar films, but still a great movie. And Penelope Cruz really surprised me with the actual acting and looking hott.

Oh wow. Just now watching Little Miss Sunshine for the first time. We're only ten minutes into it (we had to pause for a phone call S had to take), and oh. my. god. Steve Carrell just broke my heart with a single look, in his very first moment on screen.
Wow.

Yes. Yes it is.
We're on a bathroom and ice cream break, about an hour into it. I thought I was a Steve Carrell fan before. I was wrong. I had no idea how incredible he was. The scene in the gas station where he ran into his ex blew me away.
