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.

I always think of JG-L in Ten Things I Hate About You, aka my favorite teen movie not made in the 80s.
In which he rules! I should watch that again, for it's made of awesome.

No, I hadn't thought of that. (Darn the Monday delay!)
Yeah, there was a particularly cruel one on Futoncritic today.

JG-L is very, very awesome. Thanks to good reviews here, I now very much want to see The Lookout.

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 didn't care for Brick. Loved JG-L in Mysterious Skin , though. That's a movie that'll break you.

Hey. New board.
Yeah, that movie broke me but good, and JG-L was pretty fantabulous.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
I think I passed on Brick because Ehrenstein raved so much about Gordon-Levitt in it that I unfairly associated my distaste for the reviewer with the film itself.
Ooh, I'm gonna tell him you said that and ooh you're gonna be in so much trouble and ooh...donuts!
Sorry.
What was I saying?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
For any of you who have seen the Huckabees hissy fit video (which has been quite the topic of discussion among those I know in the movie business(, here is a genius homage: [link]
Enjoy!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My sister sent me an article about a controversial movie featuring two black men in love with each other, and I was surprised (pleasantly so) to see this paragraph:
Rag Tag is Nwandu's interpretation of "slash", the underground genre of fan fiction on the internet in which fans - mainly women - invent and share fantasies about famous men having sex, from Captain Kirk and his colleagues to Pete Doherty and Carl Barat. As a straight woman, she sees nothing unusual in this. "I know people have been saying why, as a woman, are you writing stuff about men; but if you look into slash, a lot of the authors are housewives," she says. "There is something about male sexuality that fascinates women. I know I am not alone."
Sure, I might edit it a bit when it comes to defining slash, but still. Dude. It came up. In the Guardian movie section.
