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.

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

Don't get me wrong, I'll generally pay matinee prices to see his movies because he's smoking hot and almost always takes his shirt off in them. But I'm aware of the quality of "acting" I'll be subjected to going in.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
By glad, do you mean to say sad?
Well, I guess glad isn't the right word, nor is sad. But I don't really want blowjob videos in the YouTube history now that the kids like to navigate the site on their own.

I find him so...dumb. He's not cute, and he looks like he's just not keeping up with the rest of the room. Gnargh.
This sums up my feelings on Channing Tatum. I find the trailer for his new romcom painful to watch, and the trailer for 21 Jump Street is watch from the hall territory for me. Nononono.

Hah, just happened to flip past TNT at the point in Gran Torino where Eastwood is yelling at the kids to get off his lawn.

I have such fondness for the goofiness that was the original 21 Jump Street that I have no interest in the movie version. Because no matter what, it won't make me 19 again.

Because books.
The trailer for 21 Jump Street was so confusing. All I knew was the original wasn't a comedy, but I never watched it, and until the title came up on the trailer, I was pretty sure it was a remake of Police Academy.
Channing Tatum doesn't make me feel much either way, although he is a sort of nicely carved block of human.

Ick, not from the neck up. Take that back.
Jonah Hill is already my idea of a really bad time, so putting him in a movie with Channing is like vomit icing on the shit cake. Calling it 21 Jump St just makes it all the more stupid, but there's no way I'd have been going near that movie anyway.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
During Haywire, when Tatum died, I whispered to Jason "He's dead? How can they tell?"
