Yeah, I've watched the Tropic Thunder commentary twice now. I can't decide if it's better than some of the commentaries on the US release of Spaced but it is without a doubt the best feature film commentary I've ever heard.
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

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.

And now I have an incentive to get actual DVDs of Spaced instead of repeatedly watching on serf teh chunnel. But first I must rob a bank (but I needed to anyway, so it's not out of my way).

The "Making of" featurette and the MTV spot of Tropic Thunder are also hysterical. I'm waiting for my downstairs neighbor to start banging on her ceiling. Iron Man wailing on Kung Fu Panda's nuts with a wrench was priceless.
Please let RDJr live a long drug-free life making many many movies.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Oh, this is cool - AICN is confirming that Nick Frost and Simon Pegg will be playing Thomson and Thompson in the Tintin movie.

HMOG - that's made of win. I think casting the two guys who played the Andys in Hot Fuzz would go one better, but they don't have the name recognition that Frost and Pegg will bring.
eta ...and Andy Serkis as Capt. Haddock potentially? Liking that too, especially after seeing him play Martin Hannet in 24-Hour Party People.

I have no idea who those two are, but I don't see Andy Serkis as Captain Haddock at all.
However, I'm glad that project is on again. Is it really going to be out in 2010? I still want to know which volumes they are adapting. Love this quote:
You know the economy is shitty when studios are afraid to finance a Spielberg/Jackson picture.

They have the best screen duo chemistry in the universe. This is only a slight case of hyperbole.

True words. They're up there with Clooney/Pitt (Soderbergh edition).
