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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

DAMMIT. I just realized that I lent out my copy of Dr. Strangelove to someone, and I forgot who, and now I'll never get it back. Bollocks.

Put it on your Christmahannukwanzakah/birthday/wish list. That's how I got my copy of Invader Zim Vol.1 back. Turned out my brother had it.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Ha! And you know, those two keys aren't even on the same side of the keyboard.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Bon bon, you are brave to contradict R. Lee Ermey. He could tell me that the world is flat and that history's greatest filmmaker is Michael Bay and I would holler, "SIR YES SIR!"

Hey, Vonnie, I think the Kubrick guy you're talking about was that asshat Merrwit. Haven't heard from him in years.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In other news, am I the only one who's slightly weirded out that Angelina Jolie is playing Mariane Pearl with a tan and an afro wig?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

In other news, am I the only one who's slightly weirded out that Angelina Jolie is playing Mariane Pearl with a tan and an afro wig?

What? Is blackface now unfashionable?

Here's the logic I heard: Angelina is part French; Mariane is part French.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I'm never in here, because I never get to see movies.

Dr. Strangelove and Casablanca are in my top 5 along with Blazing Saddles, Destry Rides Again and PCU.

Also y'all should see this. It's got 2 of the people from MI 5 and Wash [link]

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

Peter Dinklage!

I watched Threshold entirely for him.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

My friends saw an advance at the Angelika and raved about him and Alan. Apparently it's an awesomely funny movie. I saw the preview at Waitress, and they said it didn't even cover a third of the funny.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

The logic I heard (read: read in an interview with Pearl this week) is that MP asked her to play the part.

Not that I don't think it's weird, just a different flavor of weird.
