Buffistas

If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

On a quasi-related note (horror movies), Hec, you magnificent bastard, I am loving your 60's horror movie posts on HILOWBROW.

Thank you! And may I say, my editor likes it when people LIKE it on Facebook so if any of you feel like giving it a click, it gives him a happy and ultimately I wind up getting more writing opportunities and money etc. (HiLobrow is somewhat related to an online writing group that includes a lot of editors and publishers so it gets seen by people who can help me.)

Have you ever thought of doing a movie book?

This is definitely a conscious push on my part to break out of music writing and establish myself in writing about film. I have just started to get a notion that I'll have written about half a book's worth of material by the time I'm done with this.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Yeah, I've so far avoided the whole Facebook thing (mainly since it is blocked at work and I can't be buggered at home to join so far), but I do need to do something about it eventually.

Resistance is futile!!!!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

The negative reviews are piling up for Jack and jill.

1. How did this movie get financed?

2. Who is the audience for this movie?

I actually liked The Wedding Singer, but there is no fucking way I'm going to see this movie under any situation. I don't care if it shows up on TBS some Saturday when I'm bored.

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

Is there supposed to be some sort of advertising subtext to imply that Adam Sandler as a man is relatively catchlike attractive and just disgusting as a woman? Because they're both plain as mud to me.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

After "Funny People", it just makes me sad to see Adam Sandler make crap like that. Also, I thought Hollywood was over stuff like that when Max Baer Jr. stopped playing Jethrine on the Beverly Hillbillies. And I sort of think Adam Sandler is "regular-guy" cute, but that was before seeing him in eyeshadow...my brain is going to need to recover from that. Not gonna lie.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Something I learned today:

There is a movie out there that stars Elvis Presley and Mary Tyler Moore.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I remember that movie! On the Late Nite Creetur Feetur or something, right?

Ooh. That little four-note mockingjay melody at the end is haunting.
