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.

For future reference, Movie Stinger tells you if there are credits or post-credits scenes in any given movie.

I was lazy taking the DVD out after watching Slither, so was pleasantly surprised there. I realise I don't watch to the end with rentals as often as I'll hang out in the theatre just to be sure.

move out and draw fire

Random note on race casting and movies-from-books...one of my relations was appalled back in the day when Emma Watson was cast as Hermione. She'd been positive from reading the books that Hermione was black.

I had a very positive reaction to this, until she explained that the reason she'd thought this was that Hermione was described as having bushy hair and prominent teeth.

Sigh.

Most reboot news just makes me shake my head in disdain. This movie actually being made would actively piss me off.

I throw up a little in my mouth every time I see a commercial for Arthur. You cannot improve upon Dudley Moore. It simply can't be done.

I'm looking forward to it. Russell and Helen seemed to have an excellent chemistry whilst presenting at the Oscars.

I was never a Dudley fan, so I'm looking forward to it.

I'm sure they do, and I like them fine in other stuff, but...just no.
