I saw Shutter Island tonight. A few parts of the book that I felt were key to the story were left out, but overall I liked it.
Mal: I call you back? Wash: No, Mal. You didn't. Zoe: I take full responsibility, cap.

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.

Tim Burton is going to direct a 3-D stop-motion Addams Family movie. After Alice In Wonderland, I am very conflicted about this. [link]

So, I'm guessing Johnny Depp will be voicing Gomez & HBC Morticia. *sigh*

Because books.
Oh, nobody better have a British accent. Please.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I'm a bit conflicted too.
I think I should just read my Charles Addams books to the kids tonight.

I just ... okay, fine, I will go see Dark Shadows when it's released, because there is no way I will be able to resist vampires + Tim Burton. But I don't automatically trust him with gothy icons anymore. Which feels very strange, like I've been going through a bad break-up.

Because books.
And I love the Angelica Huston/Raul Julia versions so much. It's sort of been done, in my mind. Why bother?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'd be way more excited if Henry Selick were slated to do a stop-motion Addams Family.
Hell, even Wes Anderson.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Why bother?
Because this version will actually show them making Girl Scout cookies out of real Girl Scouts?
OK, I got nuthin'.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
You know who could do a good voice for Gomez?
Nathan Fillion.
Maybe Msr. Depp would prefer to do Fester?
