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.

The story on ultraviolet light revealing what ancient Greek statues looked like when they still had their paint - it's elsewhere on i09.

I've only seen 20 on that list, but I think I should get credit for multiple viewings of (and total devotion to) most of the others.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
From a listing of some of the films to play at the Chicago Film Festival [link]
One of the films is called Big Tits Zombie (Konkyu Dragon)
A raucous crowd-pleaser that is definitely not for the whole family, this 3-D spectacle pits brassy strippers against a mob of the undead, which the ladies unwittingly revive by reading aloud from an ancient tome.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I've seen 20. Just went to netflix to add Primer to the queueue and found Moon already on there.
Should I watch S Darko or will it just upset me?

23, all but Ghost In The Shell and Inception. The Day The Earth Stood Still and Forbidden Planet are among my favorites. I'm looking forward to the next restored Metropolis, too.

I think I'm looking forward to Metropolis more than the Lord of the Rings movies!
