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.

Also, what was wrong with Iron Man 2?

Not enough RDJ in an undershirt.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I liked it, but not because I understood it...the other Ritchie caper films were better on that count. Wild ride, though. And Piven.

We turned on the subtitles about 10 minutes in, and it didn't help that much.

From back a bit:

I saw RocknRolla about a year ago and I found the movie to be very misogynist. I was kind of surprised that I had this reaction because I watch a lot of action movies that aren't exactly feminist movies.

Interesting. Do you remember what pinged you, in particular? The women are largely referred to/cast as as tarts and strippers, but given the subject matter and director I don't find that surprising. And, like I said, at least there is no violence against women onscreen. It's sad, but I find myself thankful when violence against women is not used as cheap character definition/titillation.

Furry Vengance

I'm so bummed that movie isn't about what I think it's about.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
