Finally finished watching La Meglio gioventù ( The Best of Youth ) this weekend.
Oh! I loved that movie!!!
Well, then, this is a day I'll feel good to be me.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
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.

Jason Bourne is a cyborg?
I hope he doesn't get rusty down there.

If Richard Chamberlain is playing him, I'd say wood rot is the likelier risk.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I knew nothing about Ironman, but I just saw a trailer for it on the tv. It looks motherflippin' awesome. Downey Jr. rules in it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The character's one of the few alcoholic superheroes, but they don't dwell on that in this movie. Still, there is an alcohol shot right there in the trailer.
He's in interesting character in that he's flip and brusque and not like Spidey or Supes or Bats or Wolvie.
Hell, his most obvious nick sounds like irony.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Downey Jr. rules in it.
He does. I find him incredibly entertaining and compelling in the trailer.

I'd muster a lot more enthusiasm for the movie if the writers of Civil War hadn't just turned Tony into a self-righteous fascist responsible for atrocities against some of his closest friends.

Art Crawl!!!
Just saw a teaser for the movie Across the Universe, is this the one where the studio wasn't happy with the director's progress and took it over and that pissed off the director who wanted her name taken off it?
It looks colorful and fun - you know - from the teaser.

I firmly believe (and this bolstered by only having read about it) that they'll explain he's a pod person or something, Matt.
Then again, DC ruined my Batgirl and I read those--and deleted them from my brain.
I hate the Across The Universe (that's the Evan Rachel Wood-Beatle thing, right?) trailer. Every time it comes on I worry that they think I'm its audience because of what movie ticket I bought.

Art Crawl!!!
Is it Evan Rachel Wood?
Mostly, I heard the music and saw color and dancing -- didn't recognize individual people.
(I've got the tv on in the living room but I'm not in the living room and can't really see it clearly.)
