Wired says that Burton is directing it but Johnny is unconfirmed.
Bweeeeeeeee!
starts scheming as to how to become an extra ...

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 B Ark en route from Golgafrincham.
That's GOT to be it.
Next, you're going to be claiming that Michigan explains Waterworld.
NOTHING explains Waterworld. I have no defense for my love of that one. It's a Zen thing or something. I just do.
AND IT'S SO STUPID!

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
Unless MM likes Waterworld too.
...no. No, I do not.

Unless one of his future efforts relies on Ben Browder exercising naked as a plot point
It doesn't even need to be a plot point for me; it can be totally gratuitous, as far as I'm concerned.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
I loved the imagery and the composition of Signs and the characters and their relationships and I always get happy chills when they're on the car and they all connect and the signal comes clear.
My very devout friend hated the movie for what it said about God, but suprisingly, what she hated even more was that they didn't use machine guns or rocket launchers to kill the aliens ded. Which tickles me to no end cuz she hates action movies and violence for entertainment. And I think this is what peeved many people as well. I have heard many a "WTF?! A baseball bat?!" .
And I loved that simplicity and counterintuitiveness.

I'm mildly not happy about Burton doing Dark Shadows, if only because I'd heard Alice in Wonderland was his next.
Isn't the Judge Dredd/Demolition Man discussion, buffista conversation topic #256? If so, I think this requires an obligatory Last Kiss Goodnight shout out.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Unless one of his future efforts relies on Ben Browder exercising naked as a plot point I don't foresee ever spending money on another ticket.
Only if the twist is that he's one of a series of naked Ben Browder clones.

Come *ON*. Liking Waterworld is my big movie sin?
Not more than a month ago, I confessed to having an immense love for the immensely stupid The Last Samurai in this very thread. And I'm being mocked for liking Waterworld?
I like Spies Like Us, for crying out loud....

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I like Waterworld! Enough that I sat through the water show at Universal three times and thought it made a nice story!

But all they needed was garden hoses...
