Demme with Rachel Getting Married?

Kaboom!
I'd long since decided I'm probably not the audience for Araki's out-there efforts (and of all his films I've only seen Mysterious Skin) but the clips of this floating around on youtube are very fun: I wish every portentous dream ended with a red dumpster.

By "based-on" I mean named after. I can understand (if not share) the enthusiasm some people have for seeing their favourite videogame with narrative on the screen but Rollercoaster tycoon?

Why?
Why are studios ponying up money for franchise titles when they could make a movie on the same topic and not lose any of the appeal?

I actually saw that! I've seen the original two and yeah… they both involve bushmen and fish-out-of-water westerners but that's about it. The vampire was hilarious when I was a kid - it bounced around the place instead of walking.

I liked the way they qualified the Angel's badness by calling them the worst things in the universe… that had ever evolved.

I'm not a huge fan of "Single Ladies" but it is nice to hear an R'n'B song with actual Rhythm and Blues.

I wasn't suggesting Panic Room was any good. I was pointing out that he'd bounced back from making a bad film before.

(For the record I don't think Arab Strap and Fold your Hands are awful - just treading water.)

I wouldn't worry about Fincher. It's only been one film since Zodiac and he did make Panic Room in between it and Fight Club.

Belle and Sebastian
Surely I'm not alone in thinking that The Life Pursuit is every bit as good as Tigermilk and If You're Feeling Sinister? If not better?

I work with people who actually think this.

Then tell her I'm looking forward to living in a world with blue aliens not one where I can watch them on tv.

"Which can be accomplished by breaking "afterlife" into two words. Without a stupid dot."

Seriously? I think it's so you know that it's not set in heaven (ie the afterlife) but rather is about someone experiencing what comes after life.

Well the doctor is a time traveller so you know if they'll get around to doing a "Doctor meets his past incarnations" ep.

Ugh, bear.

Yep. But I sat through it all the episodes I could bare out of loyalty to thrill my (only slightly) younger self got out of the novalisation of The Caves Of Adrozani and its freaky cover.

"Inferno" was my favourite! Although I was twelve or eleven.

I vaguely remember a cameo by one of the Pythons in "City" critiquing the TARDIS as a work of art. Can anyone back me up? (I think it was Cleese).
