Dawn ,'Storyteller'
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.
The Eddie Murphy movie was in 2003, and was AWFUL. I am all for a reboot. Especially since the BIG quote from del Toro is "Haunted Mansion will be live-action, 3D, and "the most haunted mansion on Earth." Will not be a comedy."
(Thank you, Twitter, for breaking news.)

Though IIRC a lot of the set and prop design was gorgeous. I don't suppose there's a design book available like the one on Alice in Wonderland, to spare design whores the misery of having to endure all the bad acting and writing just to get to the pretty stuff?

Yes it was. Whooo.

The Haunted Mansion: From The Magic Kingdom To The Movies. So not a complete design book, but it does have design sketches and photos from the movie.
Ooooh! ::bookmarks::
It's official: Joss Whedon is directing the Avengers movie!
eta: Joss sez:
I'm still writing the outline. I am at the stage where I am reworking and reworking. What I love about this is that there is no way that these people should be in the same room together, let alone the same team. And that, to me, is the definition of family.
I find it noteworthy that the official Disney press release didn't even acknowledge the existence of the Eddie Murphy film.
Karl Urban to play Judge Dredd (it's buried down there below Trek II talk).
I just got back from seeing Inception and I just read all the white-font. I found it a very involving movie. I didn't check my watch once. And I surprised myself by being a little teary at the end.
I haven't made up my mind yet whether I believe it was all a dream or whose dream it might have been. Or whether the last part was Cobb's dream, because I'm not sure it wasn't.
We saw The Kids are Alright today. The friend of Kelly's who is staying with us this week has two moms and she said so much of it rang true to her.
Annette Benning and Julianne Moore were fantastic.
I want to get Inception when it comes out on dvd just to watch with the captions on because I didn't understand 90% of Ken Watenabe's dialoge.
