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!

Yeah, I was sort of disappointed by that one, Gris. And the Dirty Harry. They weren't what they sounded like in my head.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I have a MySpace because most of the people in my neighborhood do (most of the bars in my neighborhood do, too).

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I adore that that page has clips of the speeches. I also adore Marlon Brando. And I've never seen Apocalypse Now, but the guy that delivers that speech annoys me - too bad, because the speech itself is pretty awesome.

Which speech?

FWIW, any and all of Brando's stuff in AN has to be seen, not just heard. It's all so much more powerful when you see the ruin of a man there.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Robert Duvall?

Always Anti-fascist!

I *loved* that when Julia got going. I wanted my friends to call me the Terminator, too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The Golden Compass movie. This is a cool site for a movie that's not coming out for yonks. Much less annoying than, say, the X-Men movie sites.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

FWIW, any and all of Brando's stuff in AN has to be seen, not just heard. It's all so much more powerful when you see the ruin of a man there.

Although Armin Shimmerman (sp?) did a pretty good job of delivering a variation thereof. Part of me wishes there'd been one flash of him in his Quark makeup (since Xander was such a geek), but it probably was way too rights complicated. Shame they weren't on UPN at that point.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I would like to register my pleasure that that Trainspotting speech showed up. I wanted to get the poster of it in college, I liked it so much.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Get ready... for the violence... of the lambs.

Now tagless for your comfort.

That is the funniest thing I've seen in a while.
