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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I use that phrase all the time. Thank you for the name--I kept coming up Joy Behar, or Monica Piper, Wendy Liebman. Elayne Boosler and Judy Tenuta were right out of the running, though.

I also use, "No, Beverly, just you." Which I stole from Monica Piper.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So Beau and I saw Hanna over the weekend while we procrastinated doing our taxes. I was quite entertained by the movie, but at the same time, I found it to be a little trite. Beau felt that the director did everything in his power to make the best of a bad script. I didn't think the script was BAD (not like Adjustment Bureau bad), but a certain revelation about Hanna toward the end of the movie was not well thought out.

It is a good movie to escape doing one's taxes though but violent for a PG-13 movie (it seemed to me). I cannot believe this movie gets a PG-13 and The King's Speech gets an R.

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

Terrible ‘Atlas Shrugged Part I’ Dismal At the Box Office

Despite all the libertarians in the nation selflessly relinquishing their Ron Paul gold for evil paper money so they could buy a movie ticket, Atlas Shrugged: Part I only made $1.7 million in its opening weekend, coming in at fourteenth place, right behind statist epic Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2: Rodrick Rules.

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

"They want titles that I would not have considered almost a year ago. I just agreed to make a movie called Piranhaconda, which goes above the limit of what I previously thought was the limit of insanity,” Corman says, pausing to add, “We shoot in March."

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Watching "Red." Helen Mirren is nine times more awesome than anything else in this movie. Which is good, because I really hate that woman from Weeds.

Because books.

Red was a lot of fun.

They cast Amandla Stenberg for Rue in The Hunger Games, and Dayo Okeniyi for Thresh.

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

Oh, god, that's a beautiful Rue.
