You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

He should be on Supernatural. We've had Jason Dohring, it's the natural next step.

WHO IS NOT INTERESTED? Who are those dead-inside people?

I'm dead inside. I don't think Michael Rosenbaum is very attractive, or a very good actor.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Alan Moore sums up everything that’s wrong with the entertainment industry

There's been a growing dissatisfaction and distrust with the conventional publishing industry, in that you tend to have a lot of formerly reputable imprints now owned by big conglomerates. As a result, there's a growing number of professional writers now going to small presses, self-publishing, or trying other kinds of [distribution] strategies. The same is true of music and cinema. It seems that every movie is a remake of something that was better when it was first released in a foreign language, as a 1960s TV show, or even as a comic book. Now you've got theme park rides as the source material of movies. The only things left are breakfast cereal mascots. In our lifetime, we will see Johnny Depp playing Captain Crunch.

You know, I'd totally go see a movie of Johnny Depp playing Captain Crunch....

Would you go see Bob Hoskins play one of the Super Mario brothers?

Possibly?

For the Crunch movie, they could get James Marsters or John Barrowman as part of Crunch's crew.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

John Barrowman as part of Crunch's crew.

I would see that movie on opening night.

So many remakes! That never happened before, and nothing good can ever come of it. No one ever made a movie or TV show or song off a spuriously slight initial concept and just ran with some shit and ended up with anything entertaining--before it used to be hours and hours of research and collation and correlation before an idea was even raised.

I hate newfangled everything. Everything sucks.

I saw that Lionsgate (I think) is remaking Rebecca. THERE IS NO NEED FOR THIS. I don't get it.
