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.

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

SciFi Wire article on AvP: [link] I like this quote:

"The thing we were trying to be careful of is we didn't want to have aliens dancing in front of McDonald's and stuff," Strause said in a group interview at the brothers' Hydraulx visual-effects house in Santa Monica, Calif.

Of course, they totally blew the chance for wacky product placement hijinks. Just think - an alien going through a McDonald's drive-through! Zany!

I'll take any Keanu I can get. So there!

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

Sadly, I draw the line at Keanu as a Jesus metaphor.

How about an Alien vs. Keanu movie? Humans have to fight off aliens, Keanu-clones, and the deadly alien/Keanu hybrid.

I like the abstraction of Keanusqaatsi, myself.

Canoe's already played the Buddha, so a Christ-figure isn't going to be a stretch... at least in the sense that he won't do any better.
