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.
Has it been posted that Red Dawn may not be released?
Depending on how much you follow the schedule of upcoming movie releases, you may or may not know that MGM was planning to release a remake of Red Dawn on November 24, 2010 (the picture above is from the set). I say “was” because the studio is facing such major financial difficulties that the release has been postponed and the movie may be shelved indefinitely. To make matters worse, the Chinese press got a hold of the leaked script, which was based around a Chinese invasion of America (as opposed to the Soviet invasion in the first movie), and the headlines are not pretty. A few notable newspapers covered the story saying things like, “U.S. reshoots Cold War movie to demonize China” and “American movie plants hostile seeds against China.”
Oh God, please don't let Brad Pitt get the notion into his head that he can do a Russian accent!
But who can be Ilya?
Simon Pegg.
I'll just be over here weeping that Red Dawn probably won't come out. I need my Jeffrey Dean Morgan, people.

Disney's TRON: Legacy, the sequel to the 1982 cult classic will be released shortly. Along with the film, Disney has released a TRON: Legacy couture fashion line, described by the company as "designed for the young female urbanite." The collaborators include Hurley, Rotenier, Rosseau, TomTom and Hayden-Harnett. Here are our top 10 picks from the line.
Did I mention that I just love the look of Olivia Wilde's character in Tron: Legacy? Somehow she manages to push many of my "hot" buttons.
Unf. Not just you, tommyrot.
Olivia Wilde is a big do not get for me.
My only idea so far for Ilya has been Daniel Craig, but you can't have James Bond in a James Bond spoof. So...Paul Bettany?
