Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

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.

I watched HTTM yesterday too! Loved it! Then again, I went into it with very low expectations.

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

My expectations for HTTM were met exactly, which made me enjoy it all the more.

Tonight, DH and I are watching the original Tron in preparation for Tron: Legacy tomorrow afternoon. My expectations for T:L are that at least 90% of the script will be meaningless computer-related jargon leading into FUCKING AWESOME LIGHTCYCLE BATTLE SCENES.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Desk Set also has, hands down, the most romantic line I've ever heard, delivered by Spencer Tracy, after recounting his ex-girlfriend, the model, who wrote him long letters when he was in the war, full of details about hemlines and fashion. Then he says to Katharine Hepburn, "I'll bet you write wonderful letters."

Oh my god, swoon. I love that movie, and that line was what sealed the love. Mmm.

As I said on Twitter, as much fun as Tron Legacy was, I understand now how most people feel about the Matrix sequels. I still think you're all crazy and wrongheaded, but I get now where the hate and eye-rolling come from.

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

Because... they... don't hate them enough? Is that it? Help me to understand!

Oh! I know this one, Alex! It's "What does The Matrix have in common with The Highlander?", isn't it?
