'Out Of Gas'


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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I don't get the sense that Spielberg's process puts him through the ringer like Joss' does.

Directing Star Wars was so bad for Lucas that he didn’t direct another film for 20 years. Making Apocalypse Now very nearly killed Coppola, and frankly, he was never quite the same creatively afterwards.

Pity someone didn't make it more difficult for him on set.

I think the Avengers guys must be praying for the press tour to end: RDJ walking out of an interview, Renner and Evans saying stupid things and having to apologize--Do you think they could get a day off to just not talk to anybody and sleep or something?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It's such a huge press tour. Really there aren't that many BILLION dollar movies in the pipeline.

I'm surprised RDJ has been sticking it out so long. But I guess he's committed for the next two Avengers movies.

Watching Guardians of the Galaxy. So fun, and yet you can see how it could have such a disaster.

You know, Joss did a full dialogue pass on the script. Punched it up.

He'll be in the next Captain America movie as well. Honestly, I think it's that the cast have so much fun working together, they all want to keep doing it. Surely by now RDJ could buy a tropical island and go live there in seclusion like Brando if he wanted to.

Chris Evans was on Jimmy Fallon tonight, and even brought brother Scott out for a mixed doubles game of flip cups.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Yeah, even Chris E., who originally said he'd be out when his contract was up, has said he'd be up for more now.

I also think that when he doesn't have constant crazy, busy work of some kind - that's when he backslides into trouble. I think he lives off the crazy chaos of film work - whatever kind. I'd love to see him do a few smaller things just to get his tempo down a little, honestly. But anything that keeps him going like he is...is good.
