Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

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.

Oh, Jilli, I saw this and it made me think of you and now I've been reminded to link you to it!

Oh, that's AWESOME. She made that? With stickers, from what I've gleaned from the comments. Oh ... dear. I sense a whole new level of crafting insanity looming before me. I must go do research. Um, after I turn in my manuscript on Monday. Yes. Not being distracted, that's me.

ha! Sorry! She sells her stuff on Etsy (of course!) if you want a reward without the distraction of doing the actual crafting yourself.

Ooooh. Lookit all the shiny things ...

EDIT: and she takes orders for custom pieces! Oh dear. A custom GCS swirlybat locket may be in my future.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I was getting all prepped to be annoyed that Bruckheimer is considering Johnny Depp for Tonto (and rumors have Clooney as The Lone Ranger) but I looked it up and he is part Cherokee, still I bet it's a wee part and Silverheels was all (Canadian) Mohawk.

Always Anti-fascist!

Much as I love Johnny Depp, that sounds cheesy to me. Find an Indian actor.

I thought that was definite (the Tonto role).

Didn't he do an indie years back where he played a Native American?

ETA: Aha. The Brave, which he directed.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I thought Depp is a quarter (eigth?) Cherokee. On his mother's side, of course.

I just watched the trailer for Inkheart over at Yahoo Movies. I'm still excited to see it (I mean, Paul Bettany breathing fire? Hell yeah!) but wow did they change a lot.

“Not dead yet!”

Just watched Across the Universe last night for the first time. Surprised myself with how much I loved it. I mean, I love Julie Taymor's work and visual sensibilities and of course, Beatles, but given the Mama Mia!-like genesis in terms of let's create a story that we can fit the songs into, I was a little concerned. Mind you, I love MM!, it's good, cheesy fun, but taking into consideration the setting for AtU, I was just a wee bit concerned. Shame on me. So didn't need to be. I loved the not-so-subtle references to iconic figures from the era, loved the casting (Dana Fuchs is a total doppelganger for Joan Osborne and I barely recognized Joe Anderson, who I loved in Becoming Jane), and of course, loved the music.

Very cool. I'll quit babbling now.
