Huh. Odd.
Simon: I swear when it's appropriate. Kaylee: Simon, the whole point of swearing is that it ain't appropriate.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Saw it Sunday, and I seem to recall that all of the non-English lines were sub-titled.
eta: I was annoyed by the use of "alright."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Wow, Alien 3 is a mess. Huge step down from the first two.

I have never been able to finish that movie.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I was just coming to post that!
I want that version of Big Lebowski SO MUCH I can't even tell you. So much.
Also that Die Hard.

You can't have Zappa as Lebowski! He famously didn't do drugs.
Though Iggy as Donny is perfect.

It should be Marc Bolan, right?

I rather liked Alien 3. It's not as good as the other two, but it's always seemed inevitable, in a saga-ish kind of way.

I don't think it's inevitable that Ripley crash land on a prison planet full of indistinct Brits and Charles S. Dutton who blab a lot and are really boring and vaguely religious and, whatever, alien, just eat them.
But if you mean the stuff with Ripley's being impregnated and dying, maybe. I also liked the appearance of Bishop at the end. The last half hour or so is pretty good. Alien-POV-cam was Fincher's best contribution to the franchise.
