I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

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.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Was that Joss's "big news" at ComicCon?
God knows. I think that was supposed to be Goners getting green lit, probably, but Goners has ended up on ice again.

OOOH, Creepy!
It looks like part of his smile is because the sides of his mouth got slashed.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Of course, Frank, the movie The Man Who Laughed (with that same plot element) was the inspiration for The Joker.

Okay, according to Joss at CC, Goners is not as free floating as I thought. Hurray. He's also written a horror film with Goddard called CABIN IN THE WOODS.

Heath Ledger is the Joker? Huh.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Get this, Megan: they passed on Crispin Glover to cast him.
See, I had the exact opposite reaction. I saw the trailer and I thought, "Wow, McShane will appear in all kinds of crap." It didn't help that they showed a few trailers for "ordinary boy discovers extraordinary powers/object" movies in a row, but i was not impressed.
Sue is me in this regard. Take towheaded Home Improvement-esque stage brat, mix in equal parts pretentious messianic destiny, cliched lines, and flashy CGI effects, stir, and allow to ferment on screen.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Huh. I could write one of those. In a couple days. Have there been any for girls, or are they all boys who get the Destiny? (Except for Whedon's stuff, of course.)
Let's see. A Wrinkle in Time had a girl protagonist, right? Meg?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I just saw The Simpsons Movie and Hairspray and really enjoyed both of them. We all know that The Simpsons would kick comedy ass, but I was suprised at how much I enjoyed Hairspray and how appealing and just plain fun it was. I found Travolta's performance hampered by prosthetics but he was clearly totally committed to the part, so kudos to him for that. James Marsden was amazing and just lit up the screen with perfect musical comedy energy. I also loved the lead, who held the screen in all her scenes, which is pretty mind-blowing for her first movie. The score is chraming if not memorable, and the script opened it up well. There were a lot of tween girls in the theater, squeeing over Zac Efron, who is a baby hottie for sure [link] If you like musicals, check it out.

move out and draw fire
Who does Ian McShane play in Dark is Rising? Merriman?
Still pissed about Will being American. This is because characters with British accents are evil, right?
Gaiman's Beowulf: Why is that not Sean Bean?!?! And, does everyone look CGId, a la 300? It doesn't look very good, or maybe it looks very Krull-ish. I'll still try to go see it.
