Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

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.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

That's on the list of the funniest sentences I've ever read.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Have you ever had a dream with a dwarf in it? Do you know anyone who's had a dream with a dwarf in it? No! I don't even have dreams with dwarves in them. The only place I've seen dwarves in dreams is in stupid movies like this! "Oh make it weird, put a dwarf in it!". Everyone will go "Woah, this must be a fuckin' dream, there's a fuckin' dwarf in it!". Well I'm sick of it! You can take this dream sequence and stick it up your ass!

For what it is worth, I often have dreams with feral babies infesting a house, crawling on the ceiling and rustling inside the walls. They never attack people and strip all the flesh from their bones, leaving nothing but a skeleton behind, but it is always taken for granted that this a real danger. That strikes me as weirder than dwarfs. But I'll admit that, unlike ita, I've never dreamed about dwarfs.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Arnold Schwarzenegger? WTF? Shouldn't he be busy fixing California's budget or something?

Have you seen his attempts at fixing the budget? I'd rather he stick to acting.

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

Burrell FTW.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Jessica - so what you're saying is that even though Fischer's story is the B story, emotionally, it's so cliche that it undermines the whole movie? It didn't bother me, but I can see that.

As for the Fischer story finishing in the hotel, I thought that the will and the pinwheel gave the emotional catharsis they talked about that was needed to really plant the seed. I mean, the snow scene was theoretically Browning's subconscious, so Fischer thought he was seeing Browning's knowledge. Am I remembering all that right?

P-C, I made the connection with that Eames and that Fischer, just didn't see a clear resonance with the movie characters.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Of course, I kept thinking about Eames from L&O:CI.

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

smonster, you're remembering that right, and I agree with you.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
