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.

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

Tronitised movies.

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

Oooh!

Fantastic news for Wes Anderson fans: the auteur’s next project appears to be lined up—and actors are already lining up for it. Deadline.com has reported that Anderson is set to begin production in late spring 2011 on the sixties-set Moon Rise Kingdom (written by Anderson and Roman Coppola), concerning two young lovers who run away and the adult leaders of their small New England town who try to track them down. It comes as no surprise that Bill Murray has been named as part of the cast, but the others currently attached are head-turning: Edward Norton, Frances McDormand, Bruce Willis, and Tilda Swinton. Moon Rise Kingdom, which will be Anderson’s first live-action film since 2007’s The Darjeeling Limited, is to be produced by Scott Rudin, who has worked on every Anderson title since The Royal Tenenbaums.

Speaking of Wes, there's an art show inspired by his work currently playing in SF.

Oh, some of those prints look very cool indeed.

Chris Nolan settles absolutely nothing about Inception.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Ha. He doesn't address the "it's all Mal's dream" which is my favorite theory.

Mark Ruffalo is a terrorist. No, seriously. He's why we have to have backscatter scans, obviously.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

DH got the screener for Inception so we watched it again over T-day weekend. I've come to the conclusion that most of the tiny little details that seemed so important and meaningful when I saw this in theatres are actually just regular movie loose ends. (Like Saito buying the airline. I love Saito and it's a great comic beat, but how did he already work out that they would need exactly 10 hours with enough lead time to BUY A FREAKING AIRLINE? And if so, why didn't he mention it earlier? Is the whole Fisher mission just an excuse for Saito to fuck with these people because he thinks it would be funny? Maybe! Who cares, he's awesome!)

I did pay very careful attention to the treatment of the totems since we had that debate here, though, and Ariadne clearly says "It's a very elegant way to keep track of reality." So there is that.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Jessica, in response to the whitefont, I read an awesome Ocean's 11 / Inception cross over that basically posits the same thing.

Do you have the link to this handy? Because that sounds like a thing of beauty that I need to read.
