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.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

My favorite Tony Curtis story:

Lili Munster never had it so good!

Though maybe that's why Sondheim wrote "I'm Still Here" for her.

My favorite Yvonne DeCarlo movie is her film noir with Burt Lancaster, Criss Cross. Excellent noir.

eta: Ooooh, check it out. That's Tony Curtis dancing with Yvonne in Criss Cross. They probably did the fucking that very night. Note the Anchormanesque jazz flute!

Buy two. It'll double in value almost as soon as it's out of print, then you can sell the second and cover your costs.

YOU ARE NOT HELPING, DAVID. You're right, but you're not helping.

Gnnng. I just did a clothing sale, too. Time to ask Sandy Claws and point out that I have been very, very good this year.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Co-worker lent me Never Sleep Again [link] It's actually pretty good. Particularly if you grew up on the Nightmare on Elm St. movies.

The Business Insider's article on The Social Network has a series of previously unpublished IMs about the events in the book and movie. [link] P.2 re Joboozle is interesting and not in the movie.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Just for fun: some guy lists the most overrated movies of all time. [link]
