Well, that's interesting

Apparently, I didn't see a set for Repo: the Genetic Opera last Thursday, but in fact a completely different film with the exact same premise entitled Repossession Mambo.

Man. Two films with near identical premises being filmed in TO at the exact same time. Are you sure the writers haven't been on strike for a few months already?

BAU for the studios

[absinthe-dot-ca.livejournal.com]

I always love how the competing studios just "happen" to release similar movies at the same time, like "Volcano" and "Dante's Peak". Twenty years without a volcano movie (or maybe longer, I have no idea), then two major studios just happen to release one at practically the same time? Sure....

It took me a few minutes to figure out that acronym.

Or, there's always the shocking coincidence of B5 & DS9.

Totally different. One has Brit Tony Head, the other has Brit Jude Law.

Oh, of course.

Plus, one's all singing and all dancing.
