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.

I would watch an Adam goddamn Sandler movie over a Jim Carrey movie.

I would watch The Mask over just about any Sandler or Jack Black (haven't seen School of Rock) movie out there. I remember enjoying the lying one at the time, but I wouldn't see it again. Sandler comes much closer to annoying me by his very existence.

I enjoyed Big Daddy and The Wedding Singer and loved Happy Gilmore, so although I haven't liked the looks of any of Sandler's movies in recent years I don't object to his existence on general principle like I do Carrey's.

I like both Punch Drunk Love and Eternal Sunshine.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ha, tommyrot, you beat me to my response, which was: Or ARE they??

Ann, that's a ferret.

Referring back to last week -- I finished Skidoo over the weekend. I still think it's a very strange movie. And I'm not sure how I feel about the first hour or so. But the last half hour is comedy gold.

I'm not sure when exactly it gets great. Probably when the LSD-tripping guards show up on the tower. By that point, the movie has developed an absurd chaos that's great fun if you just go with it.
