I'd laugh my ass(pull) off to see that written up in her column.

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.
I can't work out if this Transformers 3 review is positive or not. Qualifiedly so, perhaps. Clear enough, though, that I should stay away.

the Salon review of Transformers 3 was really funny: it's basically the quintessential terrible summer movie, and thus we should all go see it. I think.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Am I allowed to be disappointed that the feature film of War Horse was made with live horses?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yes. I mean, what's the point? No one wants to see HORSES. They want to see PUPPET HORSES.

INORITE? It's funny though. If it had never been a play, just a book to film, and they were doing it with puppets I'd be all: why puppets?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Man, there are some funny lines in the review ita linked.
The main emotion that comes off Shia LaBoeuf, from the first frame to the last, is a bitchy, indignant rage, interspersed with feeble attempts at ingratiation.
(Forget the Director's Cut. For movies like this, we need the Bathroom Attendant's Cut.)
New leading lady Rosie Huntington-Whitely — who makes Megan Fox seem like Katharine Hepburn — spends the final hour of the movie looking as though she's ready to have a nervous breakdown and give a lapdance.
OMG HA. Yeah, I am so not seeing this movie. Even (and especially) if Alan Tudyk "impersonates a gay ex-Nazi manservant in a weird suit."
Not that I was considering seeing it anyway. Being assaulted by the trailer the other night was plenty.

The story and the acting are not what I go to see a Michael Bay film for. Giant robots destroying Chicago? Yes, must see this on the big screen.

The lure of constant sensory battery is not usually enough to get me to buy a ticket, and neither Shia nor the chick are my idea of teh hott. I'd rather watch Inception. Again. And again. And again...

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Giant robots destroying Chicago? Yes, must see this on the big screen.
For three HOURS, though?
