The picture is great. But is the picture any good?
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.
Well, who knows. But at least it's not obviously a travesty on the face of it.
My main concern is the length of the book.
How the hell are you expanding that to movie length? What would Sendak say?
We watched the first POTC again tonight in the hopes of actually seeing POTC3 this weekend, and I have a question. If Will and Elizabeth both had that gold coin in their possesion at one point, why weren't they cursed too?
They didn't take the gold out of the chest. Jack did (in the cavern), as did the monkey at the end, so they both were cursed.
Movie Midpoints. I got a whopping TWO. It's hard.
Where The Wild Things Are?
Aww... I kinda think this should be a Henson film.
Movie Midpoints.
Ooh, I got nine!
I got nine, too. Woulda got ten if I hadn't second guessed myself. Woulda got twelve if the pictures weren't so damn tiny, because four of the shots were from four of my favorite films, one from one of my favorite scenes in that film. Now I feel stoopid and blind.
But, still, some of the film choices were puzzling -- The Devil Wears Prada is so iconic that anyone should be expected to recognize a midfilm screenshot? Buh?
Fourteen. I was pretty sure of the ones I got, but agree that some of film choices were bizarre. Reality Bites?
Yeah, I would have gotten more if I had been able to actually see the people in the teeny-tiny pictures...
