The film is set in Richmond, Virginia in the year 1976. One night, a financially strapped, married couple (Cameron Diaz and James Marsden) receive a box containing a button. The next morning a mysterious disfigured stranger (Frank Langella), tells them that pushing the button on the box will have consequences. They will receive $1,000,000, but someone in the world whom they don't know will die.
~~~
Director Richard Kelly wrote a script based on the 1970 short story "Button, Button" by author Richard Matheson, which was later turned into the Twilight Zone episode Button, Button.
~~~~
Most of the filming took place in the Boston, Massachusetts area, with scenes shot in downtown Boston, South Boston, Waltham, Ipswich, Winthrop, Milton, Medfield, Quincy, Kingston, and North Andover, as well as other localities. Some filming took place on the Milton Academy campus, and a large indoor set was built inside a former Lucent Technologies building in North Andover to recreate a NASA laboratory.
It was announced in December 2008 that Canadian band Arcade Fire will be providing an original score for the film

Potentially cool movie with a shit soundtrack. Saw that band on some lame TV show like a year ago and I was compelled to perform an arduous ritual in the woods to ensure excruciating deaths for all band members.

Well played, old bean.

^Inside joke for FMPers.

What about sigils now and which ones? What's the have to do with this movie? And do you have a copy of Baneful Magick?

Powerful sigils. Mournful sigils. Keys. Gates. Invocations.

Only Karlsson's Qabalah, Qliphoth and Goetic Magic is real for this Black Mage.

The next time you're in town, me, mikeov and a few others will have to discuss this since it's off limits for rttp.

Ah, yes. A Black Synod ought convene.

And back to RTTP friendly niggery...

I'd get all up in Cameron Diaz's box. And her butthole. And then her mouth. Then probably back into her butthole.

The word queer never seemed offensive to me. If you said gay maybe I would have shed a tear.

Interestingly enough, I have a particularly lugubrious sigil that will effect reverse-ketosis upon your feeble metabolism.

Aw you held back? Maybe you're falling in love with me.

I'll only fall in love with you if you take that damn 50 dollar card, buy a Sega Genesis and buy Shining Force. Non of this neo-video game simulation crap.

Succubus must be disappointed that not one post in this thread has to do with the movie



toggletoggle post by Martins   at Oct 16,2009 3:28pm
But, you WILL fall in love with me, right? That's the only way I'll do it. Plus, can I even buy that shit for 50 bucks?

Sadly, no. My heart is elsewhere. Sorry to disappoint. I <3 Koji Kondo

Do any of you have sigils that will help me get these dreadful grape juice stains out of my Prada sandals and Les Legions Noires cassette labels?

please explain the following terminology:

I secretly hoped this movie would be good. I mean, to fuck up using grade A+ material is possible but I did wanted this movie not to suck.
Knowing that Arcade Fire did the soundtrack makes this a lot less interesting.

not sure why the hating on Arcade Fire...About the movie...I'm assuming it's predictable...anyone see the Twilight Zone episode?

Have you heard Arcade Fire?

Arcade Fire sounds a little bit like ipsoupsumas and marduck mixed with a pinch of white acorn allugat.
