I Am Link

.
--- Hardy's Herd - Looks like Leo and Tobey have folded Tom Hardy into the "Pussy Posse" - the three of them are teaming up to produce a multi-plotted movie about animal poaching a la Traffic, based on an idea from Hardy himself. Supposedly it will follow the process from animal to handbag, or whatever. But will Tom take his pants off?

--- Grand Master - I've stopped watching new footage because there's no point hyping myself into a coma at this point, but if you want to see the latest and last trailer for Paul Thomas Anderson's The Master you can do so right here. I finally figured out where it's playing in 70mm here in NYC - for a brief moment I was terrified it was only playing on the matchbox-sized screens at the Angelika theater, which would have been enough to make me pick up all of my belongings and move right then and there. If you wondering when and where it's playing near you, click here.

--- Re Chained - Speaking of trailers I won't watch but hey maybe you wanna, here's a new international trailer for Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained.
--- Running Man - I stumbled across some pictures from the set of Woody Allen's new movie yesterday and wrote 'em up over at The Film Experience. As I mention there I stumbled upon them because I stumbled upon that there picture of Peter Sarsgaard doing his tiny-shorted running routine again (previous time here) and was looking for more pics of that. Cuz that's what I do.

--- Fest Fatigued - I'm actively figuring out which movies I'll be seeing at The New York Film Festival right now... and there are too damned many! I only have so much money and so much time - I'm going to end up missing half the ones I want to see. Case in point - Glenn just wrote up how much he really dug the giallo-riffing Berberian Sound Studio, which is showing at NYFF as one of the Midnight shows that I doubt I'll make it to. Sigh.

--- Autumnal Scares - I haven't gone through this yet but STYD did us horror-geeks a favor and wrote up a guide to what's spooky movie-wise for the next few months, get it here. I hope there's some good stuff - I want some good stuff!

Really annoyed that NYFF has only been releasing their lineup - and now schedule - in bits and pieces. I'm pretty sure I'd already ordered all my tickets for last year by this point in 2011 - or was about to. I don't even know when the hell things are playing.

And ditto on the Berberian Film thing - saw it was a midnight and more or less immediately wrote it off. Getting old(er) sucks.

It's really weird how bad the NYFF is generally about online stuff. I mean they only started doing online stuff in the past couple of years, and that was bad, and now they do it and it's all scattered and confusing. I was hoping they'd have their shit together this year but it's a mess. We members are supposed to be able to start buying tickets this week and they haven't even given us a proper calendar. I had to sift thru the titles one by one last night and do it myself, and there are still a bunch of the newly announced events that they haven't told us anything about. In summation - I concur, Roark!

I've seen his little peepee and far as I'm concerned he can keep his pants firmly buckled.
