Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape

Closed Film and TV threads

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.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I love Movie!Bourne. He's all woobieful and etched with pain, but he doesn't burble about it; he just shoots the shit out of people and snaps their neck and stuff, and then he looks broken some more, occasionally in shirts that show off some arm. That's good enough for me.

And he runs! Properly! Like a military man! All economy and power and...

I'll be in my bunk.

(I swear, I'm the only one I know who gets hot'n'bothered over movie characters running. Daniel Craig's running in Casino Royale? Dreamy as hell.)

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

I get hot and bothered over JRM's running in Bend It Like Beckham, but that's a whole 'nother kettle of vibe.

That's more of a "Dear GODS, what is he DOING? He could put someone's eye out with the flappy elbows and knees!" vibe, isn't it?

"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

Official Cloverfield trailer. Bootleg no more!

Was it here that someone pointed out Lizzie Caplan is one of the stars and the viral marketing sites use the name of Jason Ritter's character from The Class, in which she also starred? Weird.

In any event, this movie looks to be Made. For. Me.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I forget whether you read Cleolinda's LJ. If so, that's where you saw it.

I haven't lately. I bet it was posted about in TwoP's thread for The Class, as that's the most likely place I would have heard about it if not here.

Is it sad that while I was completely meh about seeing The Transformers, this trailer has now moved it up to my See As Soon as I Don't Have a Headache priority just for the previews? It's been a while since movie advertising sparked this much anticipation in me.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

It's produced by J.J. Abrams

As in J.J. LOST-Asspull-WTF Abrams?

That doesn't make me want to see it.

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

I can't say Cloverfield revved my engine when Spielberg did it flawless in War of the Worlds.

I agree that the alien attack in War of the Worlds was pretty fucking cool shit. Doesn't make this look any less cool, in my eyes.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I have an allergy to Tom Cruise, so that's one movie I skipped.
