Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am not arguing against your point.

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

Yes you are.

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

This conversation is about to become a Monty Python sketch, isn't it?

I think we're past that point by now.

And, Hayden, IO9 didn't gush or hate on Source Code, Limitless, or Paul, from a cursory glance. Although I think they were positive about all of them.

Hey. New board.

EW thought Thor was kind of funny and kind of pretty. Or something. Metacritic has a 58 (I still prefer that over rottentomatoes, since it lets medium-positive reviews only be medium-positive) which is worse than Fast Five (67)and almost exactly the same as Iron Man II (57).

I will see both Fast Five and Thor.

Metacritic and EW did convince me not to see Something Borrowed (35, D+), though.

You needed help?

Hey. New board.

I enjoyed the book well enough, and like romantic comedies when they're actually good. This one could have been good. It apparently isn't.

The trailers seemed predictable enough that I feel little need to actually watch the rest of the movie.

Skimming the thread leads me to believe this refers to Thor. I hope to god it doesn't.

Hey. New board.

Ha! That would be great. No, we were discussing Something Borrowed.

Thor looks like it has things that explode good, and pretty Natalie Portman, so I'll see that one.
