I should have my next Netflix disc waiting for me when I get home tonight--Children of Men. I don't know if I'm in the mood to watch it tonight, but I'll definitely see it over the weekend. I've been wanting to see it since last December; I hope it's as good as I've heard!
Hey, evil dead, you're in my seat.

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.

We caught a preview of Knocked Up tonight. MAN. That's the purest Apatow movie yet: all raunch combined with the sweetness of real family values. Fantastic.

We saw POTC3 today. I, unsurprisingly, liked it. Yeah, the maelstrom scene went on waaaay too long, and where the heck were the rest of the pirate fleet during the big battle, but on the whole, I liked it a lot.
I don't agree with the end Norrington got, tho'. In my version, he escapes with Elizabeth and her pirates, and eventually ends up as the captain of the Flying Dutchman.

I just saw the movie Druids. Oh. My. God. Definitely the WORST movie I've EVER seen, even with alcohol and loud and clever friends. I can't believe I sat through the whole thing. It was an amazing experience, but not one I'm likely to repeat.

Don't think it's not an attractive idea to this job-free viewer. But the overall price is a tad bit high.

Saw Mr. Brooks last night. Not at all what I was expecting. It doesn't really play out as the killer/detective cat and mouse story it seems to be sold as - and occasionally seems to want to be. In reality, it's all about Costner's character - Demi Moore is good, but they might as well be in separate movies. Somehow all the threads they've woven in here don't ever quite hang together.
Which is not to say it's a bad movie. Costner is much better than I expected, and William Hurt rocks - the interplay between those two is by far the best part of the movie, and leaves you with the most to think about.
(Nothing really spoilery here, just generalities. I'm not really sure of the whitefont protocols in this thread, since I almost never see anything current.)
