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.

It has really incredibly use of sound--almost as a character--throughout.

I agree, Scrappy, and I thought that the music was excellent too (all that typewriter percussion), until the final scene with Vanessa Redgrave, when it sadly tipped into overdone and very, very intrusive .

The PJ Hobbit is going to happen!

The two “Hobbit” films – “The Hobbit” and its sequel – are scheduled to be shot simultaneously, with pre-production beginning as soon as possible. Principal photography is tentatively set for a 2009 start, with the intention of “The Hobbit” release slated for 2010 and its sequel the following year, in 2011.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Its sequel?

ETA: And New Line cut a deal with PJB just days after The Golden Compass's poor opening weekend.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ha!

I'm assuming that they're dividing it into two parts? Which is weird. I mean, the story isn't that sprawling.

It does make me fearful that if the two proposed movies make a billion or so for New Line, Peter Jackson's The Silmarillion won't be too far behind.
