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.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

I think I would go see that movie.

Is Wash still in it? Will he be a gay zombie?

Ohhh, and Viggo's there, too, armed with a sword, lopping off zombie heads!

More like a baseball bat, bashing zombie skulls in, IIRC.

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

Parsing movie plots for success.

Interesting stuff. Especially anything that may reveal industry-accepted biases in evaluating performance.

ita's link led me to roam around Malcolm Gladwell's site...boy, do I love his interest in humanity...and then to his profile of Cesar Millan, who I have been reading about all day. Thanks ita. Very interesting stuff. And, dare I say it, that Cesar is hott.

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

He mentions Dear Frankie (in ita's article)! That's next on my Netflix list - it looks fantastic.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That's a really interesting article, ita. Especially the section on how the Formula appears to work fairly well for music already. Thanks for the link!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

OMG, Dear Frankie. The voice of young Sophie in Howl's Moving Castle, and Gerard Butler. Beautiful movie.

Because I am weird and strange, I sort of bookend it with The Sailor Who Fell From Grace With the Sea.

If you describe them nutshell fashion, similar premise. Polar opposites, though.
