The "I Can Read Movies" Series.
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.

Godzilla: revived by missiles, giant lizard goes on civil construction spree in downtown Manhattan before retiring to island home
Wall-E: evil robot exiles humanity to space, breaks up with his girlfriend, trashes earth in fury.
Superman backwards is about a guy who flies around putting people into precarious situations and then hiding.
In Casablanca, Rick steals Ilsa away from her husband- then together they chase the Nazis out of Paris.
Cool - I think I will steal that idea for my next party game need.
I just got tickets for WATCHMEN at an Imax theater for the Sunday it opens. Woot!!!

Buh?
My thoughts exactly.
