That looks SWEET.
And faithful.
It looks faithful.
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
In other words, SWEET.
In other Comic Book Movie News, I'm amusing myself by looking in old threads at how people reacted to Heath Ledger's casting as The Joker.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Hee. Well, it seemed silly at the time!

Heh. The Dark Knight is already the #4 movie of all time on IMDb.
Man, I hope I love this movie. I'll settle for really liking it, but, damn, I really want to love the shit out of it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
It looks faithful.
I didn't want to hope, but...yeah. It does. I recognized those images. Wow.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
HOLY SHIT!!!! That Watchmen trailer is awesome! I know from some set photos I'd seen I knew they were doing the street corner in the book so close to the comic it was scary, but this is going to a whole other level of faithfulness.
I'm curious how this kind of slavish faithfulness to Alan Moore is going to play compared to how Sin City and 300 were to Frank Miller, where the testosterone overload ruled all.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I've been excited about Watchmen since I saw the first image of The Comedian. I'm overly annoyed that the movie continues to be called "The Watchmen" at work. I hope they fix it before it shows up on marquees.

in other news- I finally saw Cloverfield. Was it here that someone said it was an art film poorly disguised as a monster movie? Spot on, imo. I wish I'd read the trivia on imdb before I sent the disc back. I would have liked to watch the end again so I could see the splash in the background at Coney Island.

I just rented it the other night, and it's extremely difficult to spot on DVD even if you know when and where to look for it.

I still won't be convinced until I see it with my own eyes, but people have had good things to say about him in the role. I suppose seeing some of my grandmother's mannerisms on that clown face will help make him seem suitably creepy to me.
