Oh, Sophia, no. Someone should have prepared you.

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.
From a couple of days ago:
Somebody mentioned Labyrinth and I don't think I've ever watched it all the way through so I put it on and whose name do I see? Kevin Clash! (He's Elmo).
Laga, you need to see the Elmo/Kevin Clash documentary. It's currently making the festival circuit, but I'm sure it'll get distribution in theaters or TV soon.
Oh, Sophia, I'm so sorry. That song is such a cry-point for me that I start sobbing about a minute BEFORE the song starts.
BRB, must go hug Clovis very tightly.
When I went to "Sicko", at the end, the whole theater applauded. Mostly, though, my theater experiences have been...less than magical. I would miss them if they went away, but it's been ages since that "gotta see it!" feeling.
Just started watching The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. What a fabulously irritating Eustace.
I think Eustace was pretty much the only good thing about that movie. Okay, and maybe Caspian's pants. And the fact that Lucy got to use a sword without comment.
Well, okay, it was in general fairly pretty. Just it made no sense.
But the kid who plays Eustace is awesome. I'm rather disappointed they're not going right into The Silver Chair: reports are that they're going to make The Magician's Nephew next--maybe they have to use Tilda Swinton immediately?

Ahem!
AVC: There are two kinds of people: People who weep during the “When She Loved Me” montage, and people who lie about it.
Yeah, but that's not enough. You need hand-holding. And a squishy toy.
Suela, I pretty much agree, though that's weird about Magician's Nephew. They obviously needed a plot, since the book doesn't have much of one, but they didn't quite get there.

assumed that there was a third kind of person, who hadn't watched the movies!

Dear Sophia,
The first ten minutes of Up (also Pixar) will destroy you. You are forewarned.

p.s. Also the last thirty minutes of Toy Story 3 is nothing but crypoints.
I possibly should have known I would cry, since I once bawled over someone describing the Futurama episode about the guy and his dog. I have never once seen Futurama.
