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've heard that Thor was another after the fact 3D, and therefore not worth the price or eye strain.

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

Does no one read my links?

You earned that reputation.

Keep on losing, buster. If you can't tell link descriptions apart, well, I've already done my bit.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I just saw a preview for the new X-Men movie, and it looks awesome, right??

They had me at McAvoy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Saw Thor. Daaaaamn. He looks good.

My not-really-spoilery note: Jeremy Renner is in The Avengers, right? Otherwise, why him? Also:

I was geeking out about Thor (the movie) at work, and realized that it passes the Bechdel Test with flying colors

I am not sold on this, however. Don't the two women really have to be talking to one another? They were mostly with Stellan Skarsgard.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Jesse, your not-really-spoilery note is correct as far as I know.

Saw Thor. Daaaaamn. He looks good.

Holy crap, REALLY REALLY.

I am not sold on this, however. Don't the two women really have to be talking to one another? They were mostly with Stellan Skarsgard.

I'm pretty bad at remembering exact stuff like this after only one viewing, so I can't really say absolutely they were talking to each other. I know that I *thought* they were, or else I wouldn't have said it passed the Bechdel test.

Heeeey -- now I have more reason to see it again. I must confirm Thor's hotness the Bechdel-y-ness of the movie. I can take one for the team.

I was only paying attention because you had said that before I saw it. It did have multiple ladies with distinct characters, which is a plus.

Oh, in other movie-going news, the previews I saw made me wonder what about why Today's World is somehow less appealing suddenly. Is it too weird and scary here already? Previews seen: X-Men, Super 8, Captain America, Cowboys and Aliens.

Also, Green Lantern, but I think that was really the only one in modern-day America.
