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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

So it turns out that my sister missed a large portion of iconic 80's movies because her parents didn't let her see anything rated more than PG and also because she was born in 1986. So I'm making her a movie night box. Popcorn, pop rocks, Tang and the following movies:

Ghostbusters
Real Genius
Breakfast Club
Footloose
Say Anything
One Crazy Summer
Terminator
Die Hard
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Fatal Attraction
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Stand By Me
Lost Boys
Ferris Bueller
Goonies
Risky Business

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

Tang? Are you trying to scare her away?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Aims, that is so awesome! Pretty fabulous list. I've never seen some of those, hmm...

Aroo? Is he an extra? I luuuuuurve that movie and the soundtrack. Played that cassette forever, and finally got a cd.

Aroo? Is he an extra?

Yes, he's the man who's always asleep in church and in the town council meeting. He got paid extra for being able to fall asleep and stay asleep during all the commotion around him. The woman next to him is his first wife.

He's also apparently in one of the diner scenes in American Graffiti. All he remembers of George Lucas is the skinny kid with glasses with the high-pitched voice.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

You are a very nice sister, Aimee.

When it first came on cable, I think I watched it about a billion times. Same with Raiders.

I recently learned - well, re-learned, I knew it a long time ago and had forgotten - that a Classics professor I know is in Young Guns II. Apparently they needed someone who could speak latin and had a beard to be the priest in a burial scane, and he was teaching at Arizona State near where they were shooting. His character even has a name, but I can't find a clip on Youtube.

I'm going to have to watch Footloose and look for slumbering Connie hubby. And he was really asleep? That's hilarious.
