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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heh.

Hee.

Was it used in a scene with

Yes.

Oh, sweet Christ. I'm glad I know that before seeing it, because otherwise I might have pissed off people sitting around me with my disgusted "Oh my GOD!"

t edit At least it's the Leonard Cohen version, if Amazon is correct.

But still. Bleagh.

Now I want the DVD, so I can edit that scene and replace the song with a Smurf or Chipmunks version.

move out and draw fire

Wow. I was betting it was used in the Dr. Manhattan and The Comedian burninating Vietnam scene.

I recently re-read the book, and thought like V for Vendetta, it's now an interesting historical study of the Cold War and Reagan/Thatcher era, but I'm hoping that the movie will at least be a touch better than V.

Oh, I know. We could take the scene, remove the music and replace it with "We Love the Moon," with the two Spongmonkeys superimposed over the screen.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am a bit miffed that even the thought of that music being used for anything, in any film or tv show, makes me weep with hysterical laughter. I am laughing now, and I am not even watching it.

ETA- I am miffed because I LIKE the song!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Okay, I've posted a longform rant in LJ and I feel better now.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Let me say why, even after reading the whitefont, I am excited about Watchmen - I've never read it and have no expectations. This is why I tend to not read graphic novels of stuff they are making movies out of - I am a purist when it comes to book-to-screen translations and lose my enjoyment if I have read the material. Particularly with comic book and fantasy movies. I love them. LOVE them.

However, goddess help me if Joe's disappointed. I may have to move out until he's over it.

I'm going into it assuming that nothing can be as cringe-worthily bad as Spider-Man 3.

(The symbiote never made Peter Parker into a piano-playing, bad-dancing, watch-from-the-hall-worthy lounge lizard.)

(Ahem.)

Just say, "Here's a case of vodka. I'll be back in a few days."
