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.

For comparison, the population of Alderaan was supposedly 1.97 billion.

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

Stallone 21 76

His high is actually 81, for Rambo IV. I like how he kills 1 person in the first Rambo and jumps to 70 in the second.

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

Schwarzenegger killed like 300 people in the first 10 minutes of Commando.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Peter Sellers, definitely has a much higher body count in a single movie than any of those figures.

And yet they didn't ask him to be in the Expendables.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

yeah, but Eric Bana beats Peter Sellers:

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

And yet they didn't ask him to be in the Expendables.

Well he's dead, which would make costaring difficult but with CGI I suppose it's not impossible.

Or just have an urn with his ashes do a cameo (like Monty Python did).

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I just saw Scott Pilgrim. I haven't read the last book yet but I did get the feeling that Knives and Scott were going to end up together and then I thought it would be kinda awesome if Scott walked off alone. So I was kind of meh on the ending but omg I love Wallace and Kim so much it was never a choice for me not to love the movie.

Most quoted lines by movie geeks. Entirely unscientific. And since it took commenters to bring up The Princess Bride, entirely wrong.

I have to admit, I not only quoted LotR at work the other day, I suggested we use a picture of Gandalf challenging the Balrog on a web page. Sadly, I work for a relatively stodgy financial company, so no go. But they didn't look at me (too) funny!
