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.

Julian McMahon just *looks* like Bruce Wayne, and he could *definitely* pull off the creepy scary Dark Knight thing.

Oh, lordy...

Now I want this so very, very much

Right?!? I mean, Christian Bale kicked so much more ass than I expected in Batman Begins. He really was fantastic as early!Bruce/Batman. But as Batman gets even darker and freakier — well, Julian McMahon is *it.* I've never been able to mentally cast Batman, but I finally did.

(I still can't mentally cast Tim Drake, because lo, he is wily and indefinable.)

Mr. Scola’s wardrobe by Botany 500

I still can't mentally cast Tim Drake

How about Seth Green circa 1998?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Does that mean Del Toro gets the $5 mil for staying home?

Indeed.

I can't de-Oz-ify him. And when I try to de-Oz-ify him, all I get is Chris from Family Guy.

Yuma cowboy flick

I haven't seen the trailer for this. Does anyone know it's actual name? I'm just curious because I lived in Yuma for three years. It claim for fame for a long time was the territorial prison.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It claim for fame for a long time was the territorial prison.

Pretty sure that's why they're headed there. Movie's called 3:10 to Yuma.

Thanks, ita. I'll keep an eye out for it. Especially if it's got Russell Crowe in it.

pay-or-play

Yep.

It's clearly going to be one of those movie adaptations that I will have to forcibly redact from my reality (along with.... [snip] ....Demi Moore's Scarlet Letter)

You mean the movie that's all about the POWER of LOVE and it's ability to overcome ANYTHING?
