I saw Knocked Up. I enjoyed it thoroughly. Judd Apatow is a good movie-maker.

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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Waitress
Crossing my fingers that this is the movie that finally makes Nathan Fillion a star. I hope I get to see it before it leaves.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Waitress is starting to drop off (it's peaked), so it'll disappear from wide release shortly. It'll do about 12 million in the US in total. Not bad for a tiny indy film. (nearly half of Serenity's amount, which cost $40m - heh)

Art Crawl!!!
Oh no! I haven't had a chance to see it yet. (I don't even know if it's playing here.)

Art Crawl!!!
I checked the IMDB - -the closest theatre that's showing Waitress is in the northern 'burbs (at least an hour away), the next closest is in Indianapolis and the third closest is in St. Louis.

Come on out and see me, sumi--it's playing in a few of the theaters in my neighborhood. We can make a day of it!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
No, no, wait 'till I get there, and we can all go see it in Indy!
Oh, right, the point was to see it before it sublimates into the atmosphere. Carry on, then!

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I always stay until the end of the credits of every movie, just in case there is a treat at the end (and out of respect for all the people who work on films who never appear on screen) but I can't for the life of me remember the scenes from POTC 1 & 2! Can someone refresh my memory?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
In PotC1, the monkey Jack went back to the enchanted chest and stole a coin, and as he headed back toward the camera, he passed through a patch of moonlight and was revealed to be undead again (because of the curse, y'know). Then he jumped at the camera to scare us. That's why he was undead in the next movie.
In PotC2, it was back to the strange island folk, and the little dog was on the throne. As we left the theater, I said to my friend, "You know that means they're gonna eat the dog," and the kid behind me went "Noooooo!" I laughed.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I meant to post yesterday - I saw Ocean's 13 on Tuesday, and it was a HUGE amount of fun. Loads better than O12. Terrific script, nice tight plot, lots and lots and lots of the pretty.
The plot is completely ludicrous of course, but it's just so much fun to watch them pull it off. The best parts are still the random off-topic conversations between Clooney and Pitt in-between the actiony bits. (There's a scene where they're in the hotel watching Oprah that had me almost crying it was so funny.)
So, O13 = Yay! Highly recommend! The first 3rd-in-a-series movie this summer that didn't suck!
