"There's nothing worse than an old queen with a head cold."
I know there were other people in those movies (Garner! Andrews! Karras! Rhys-Davies! O'Herlihy!), and yes, it was one of Warren's best-ever roles. But the Preston just calls me.
You've got my support. Just think of me as...as your... You know, I'm searching for 'supportive things' and I'm coming up all bras.

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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
The Last Starfighter was the first movie I ever saw in a packed theatre. My sister and I had to sit in the front row almost all the way to the left. I still get a crick in my neck thinking about it. And it was Totally Awesome!!!

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Apparently they're making a movie version of the classic British series The Persuaders. IMDB has George Clooney and Hugh Grant rumoured to be playing Danny Wilde and Lord Brett Sinclair.
I'm thinking Matt Damon and Christian Bale as Danny and Lord Brett.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
State of Play is in development hell due to the script I believe. (Something to do with a lack of writers to fix it..)
Bladerunner: The Final Final Final Yes Really Cut is on at my local cinema today. Big screen, digital projection.

Bladerunner for teh win! It was awesome. The only thing I could tell which was changed was the reshooting of one scene (it's still the same, they've just fixed a key problem with it), so it hasn't gone all George Lucas. It looked frickin' amazing. The only problem I had is there's one or two shots which they haven't been able to clean up much -- they were probably a mess originally, it's hard to tell on DVD -- and they stand out a little as the rest looks mint.

I wonder if Albert Finney has ever taken Brian Cox aside and asked him to be more mindful the gigs he takes.
If he has, I'm glad it wasn't before Cox did THE LONG KISS GOODNIGHT.
