Emmett and I have tix for tomorrow night at 5:45 PST. I wanted to go to the 10:45am showing, and he wanted to see the 11:00pm showing. So we compromised.
Gunn: Well, how horrible is this thing? Lorne: I haven't read the Book of Revelations lately, but if I was searching for adjectives, I'd probably start there.

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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
It looks like Wallybee and I will be going this weekend. Knowing we can leave Ryan with her parents makes a big difference.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I am sad it is over, but overall, I was very satisfied with the movie. I have nits, as I tend to have, but overall it was magnificent and wonderful. I am sad.
And, a total geek. Though the funniest t-shirt I saw last night was one that said, "Snitches be crazy!"

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
The t-shirt I desperately want is the one that says "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good" on the front and "Mischief managed" on the back. If the possible new job doesn't fall through, that may be my first frivolous purchase with the first frivolous paycheck.

If she says Neville will marry Hannah Abbott that's good enough for me.
I'm currently rereading one of my favorite HP fics that features this pairing, called "The Colors of Fire" by Sher. Really well done.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
My local movie theater is running HP7.2 in 3D, 3D IMAX, 2D, and "digital projection". Is there an appreciable difference between the regular projection (with film, one imagine) compared to digital projection?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Some people say film is "warmer" than digital but I can't tell. Digital projectors are quieter so you don't get the projector noise but that also means the rustlings of your fellow patrons are more obvious. After opening weekend, film begins to show wear.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'd go with digital projection and skip the 3D. (I saw it in 3D and the conversion was pretty obvious. Not as bad as Clash of the Titans, but dark and muddy in that way that all 3D conversion jobs are.)
I'd pick digital over film because (a) film wears out, and this will be showing round the clock, and (b) it's such an effects-heavy movie that the digital print is closer to the "original" format anyway.

I liked that I knew exactly who McGonagall was thinking of when she asked Neville to find someone who was good with explosives
I hated that Harry didn't fix his wand. Good going, wizard, now you have NO wands.
I missed Grawp and the centaurs.
Damn Lav-lav. Not sure why that one really made my guts churn.
I cried pretty steadily from the scene in the boathouse on. Hey, boathouse !
