Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape  

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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

How very Christian of them.

Art Crawl!!!

Gilliam fans: Johnny Depp is being rumored to take over Heath Ledger's role in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus:

"There is a point in the film when Heath falls through a magic mirror," a studio source told the paper. "He could change into another character after that, and that is where Johnny would come in. It's a weird, fantasy, time-travel movie, so Heath's character could easily change appearance. It would be a poignant moment. Johnny’s not working at the moment, so everyone is praying he will do it."

From ScifiWire - but the rumor is from the Sun.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Oh that would be awsome! I'm sure Depp would love another chance to work with Gilliam (and be the one to save the film, rather than have his work go in the vault due to incompletion).

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

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

Under Construction? Really? All for that?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

If you go to the site for The Dark Knight, after the splash page, this is what you get: [link]

I think that's nice, although I was looking for the trailer.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

How very Christian of them.

yeah. At the moment I'm feeling it would be worth getting arrested if I could bean one of them with a well-aimed jagged rock. Maybe I shouldn't have watched that Keith Allen piece.

move out and draw fire

I'm sure Depp would love another chance to work with Gilliam (and be the one to save the film, rather than have his work go in the vault due to incompletion).

I mentioned to a work friend that Ledger was filming a Gilliam movie, and he said, "Man, Gilliam can't buy a break can he? Someone should make a movie about his problems making movies."

So I told him about Lost in La Mancha.

I'm still really oddly upset about Ledger. It sort of feels like that was one of the turning points for universes...like, in one reality he doesn't die, but we got stuck in the one where he does die, and it's not good.

Or I need better drugs.
