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.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

That sounds fun!

Except everytime I see Astrolabe I think of Héloïse and Abélard.

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

I am such a geek....

MTV.com reported that the first teaser trailer for J.J. Abrams' upcoming Star Trek film will be attached to Cloverfield, which Abrams is producing and which hits theaters on Jan. 18.

Cloverfield director Matt Reeves has seen the trailer and told MTV.com that "it's amazing, and it looks pretty incredible."

Reeves added: "I thought 'Well, this does look completely different and new.' But while having all the stuff that will make fans of Star Trek still feel fulfilled."

Reeves, a longtime associate of Abrams from their days on TV's Felicity, added that he has seen some footage from the top-secret Trek movie.

"I've seen little bits of the movie, too, and I feel that way as well," Reeves said. "He's doing an amazing job. It's very exciting. It's not your grandfather's Star Trek, that's for sure." Star Trek is slated for release on Christmas Day 2008.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Has anyone seen an Eddie Izzard movie called All the Queen's Men? About guys sneaking into WWII Germany to steal a decoder from an female-run factory?

EI is really obsessed with that Garner and McQueen one, isn't he? Good on him for making one, if he likes them! (I heart James Garner, too, though. He has the world's best eye-rolly "Oh, brother," face.)

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Just a few weeks ago, I saw "Support Your Local Gunfighter" on cable with my dad. It'd been a long time since I last saw it, and I enjoyed watching Garner at his smoothtalkin' best.

The more I think about it, the more I think that George Clooney reminds me most of James Garner in terms of acting style and ease on screen. I used to equate Clooney more with Cary Grant, but Garner is a better fit.

I like this. It pretty much sums up my feelings about Clooney. Plus they both came out of television.

Although I'd bet dollars to donuts that CG was a role model, acting-wise, for Garner. Probably a touch of Robert Mitchum, too.
