Death at Funeral, Dnevnoy Dozor (Day Watch), Evening, Ratatouille and Weirdsville.
I'm also dreading 1408 but think I'll have to go see it just to find out how overblown and unscary Hollywood can make Stephen King's creepiest short story.
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

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'll wait to read the reviews for Death at a Funeral, but it does look funny in the commercials (and, hey--Alan Tudyk's in it, and featured prominently in the ads!).

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I have problems with the Hairspray! the Musical movie.
It's mostly casting. Some of it, I'm fine with. Queen Latifah, Amanda Bynes, Allison Janey ... those are fine. Michelle Pfieffer, too.
But ... John Travolta? Really? And why isn't Marissa Winokur playing Tracy? I mean, if she chose not to, fine - her choice. But if it was a studio thing, I'm gonna be irritated.

I just liked the original so much... But I'd probably see it, if I could stop comparing.

From what I've heard John Travolta is great as Edna. I'm sure he was cast to get butts in the seats and I think it's kinda cute that a scientologist is wearing drag. The chick playing Tracy beat out Winokur on the grounds that she seems to embody the spirit of Tracy herself. I'll post a link to the great article I read if I can find it again. I am opposed to the casting of Amanda Bynes because I think she's too pretty to play Penny but the studio treated us to twenty minutes of clips from the movie at a preview event this spring and I was totally hooked.

And there's a biopic coming called La Vie en Rose which looked astounding -- if nothing else, worth it for the music.

At 34, she can probably still play a teenager on stage; nsm in a movie. Blonsky is 18.
