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.

Always Anti-fascist!

I can't get past the fact that, quite literally, the trailer shows Clint as an old dude telling kids to get off his lawn. Does he yell at clouds, too?

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

plus, he's funny.

I can't believe there is not more Internet hilarity hoopla over the fact that in the trailer, he literally tells a bunch of kids, "Get off of my lawn!"

Ha ha ha, x-post!

Ha, ha! No way! `I am not sure how to distinguish good direction, exactly, but I *thought* it was more than manufactured crip outrage that made MDB feel like it took a year and a half. I'm not sure what my compatriots expected...HS going right from the canvas to the local ILC to begin a satisfying but ill-paying life of disability advocacy? I don't even want to see that movie and I made it up.

OK, thanks to a total aside on NPR, I finally realized that Wall-E is a Charlie Chaplin movie.

I don't care what the movie is, the dance with the fire extinguisher is gorgeous.

Yeah. And means that I have to throw myself bodily between my kid and any fire extinguishers he sees.

Details from a preview of a few clips from Terminator: Salvation. [link]

Has some spoilers since the two scenes shown at the preview are described, obviously. There's nothing in there I wouldn't expect to see in trailers, but my tolerance for spoilers is pretty high.

My favorite bit:

Credibility and realness was important to McG who insisted that the actors get to interact with actual robots instead of a tennis ball on a stick. This resulted in a couple injuries for Bale from punching the metal robots, but they'd have it no other way.
