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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Well, if he is interviewed onset, I can see how he would stay with the accent. I know, for example, Hugh Laurie speaks in his House accent all during the shooting day. If he doing a press tour, that would be kind of...odd.

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

He does it throughout the junket.

I guess...he's still on their dime? I dunno. Part of me thinks it's just one more bit of admission that the junket is roleplaying--I don't think if he went on Leno about Batman he'd talk in an American accent, though.

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

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Saw a preview of Penelope, and it was pretty cute, if a bit silly. It's a got a really nice cast: Christina Ricci, James McAvoy, Catherine O'Hara, Richard E. Grant (who has, like, nothing to do), and Peter Dinklage. With cameos by Russell Brand and Nick Frost!

move out and draw fire

PotC3...aside from wondering how Elizabeth manages to raise a semi-functional child alone on a deserted island, and why the kid would have the foggiest who Will is (that's all the post-credit bit, I think), I just kind of love the idea of some other band of whack-a-loon pirates going on a quest to find the Pirate King.

And finding a pretty mother in a dress.

She spends all that time on a deserted island? It's been a while, but I don't remember coming away with that impression.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

At the end, they show her walking up to a coastline with the boy, and both look clean and well-dressed. I assumed she, as an ex-governor's daughter, had set up house somewhere by the sea waiting for her love to return.

In a non-deserted place, right?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I would think so.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'm not the only one mumbling behind her hand that she used to see him in cravats/bell bottoms/nothing at all and bad hair in such-and-such an indie movie, right?

Every single time I see him in said attire or lack in an indie movie, I am mumbling behind my hand about how it's the little kid from Empire of the Sun/teenager from Newsies.

His career, it is a varied one.
