A trailer for Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monster
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.
OF COURSE I loved Streep, but I actually liked the film very much as well. The story is formulaic, but it's well cast and well-acted and so so so gorgeous. It was really nice to see a marriage portrayed onscreen which is loving passionate, respectful and fun.
Every time I see the trailer the little bit of Meryl Streep as Julia we get to see makes me want to marry her.
Yes, I wanted to marry her about a million times during the film.
Beau will not see this movie with me under any conditions. If it were a movie with Meryl as Julia, he would be in, but he says, "I will not see a 'One Tree Hill' movie!" referring to certain actors of a certain demographic.
Amy Adams?

young people? I don't get it.
But Amy Adams is cool.
Yeah, I don't understand how it's a One Tree Hill movie.
In other news, Bridget Jones is back:
Bridget Jones is back - Renee Zellweger has signed on to appear in a third film about the hapless diary-keeper.
The first film in 2001 grossed $282 million (£188 million) worldwide, while the 2004 sequel, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, raked in $262 million (£175 million).
And bosses at British studio Working Title have decided it is time for Zellweger to return to the role of the beloved Brit to round out the trilogy.
It is thought the new film will concentrate on Jones' quest to have a baby in her 40s.
Colin Firth and Hugh Grant are expected to return, according to reports.
Augh. EVERYTHING DOES NOT HAVE TO BE A TRILOGY.
Quick, name me good movies that had one good sequel and that was fine (and no, pretending The Godfather III doesn't exist doesn't count). The only thing that comes to mind is Gremlins. And Ghostbusters, but that's about to be undone.
err... Ghostbusters II wasn't a good sequel.
Neither was Blues Brothers 2000. OK, P-C didn't mention that one, but it's important that we do not forget the bad sequels of our ancestors.
