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.

Because books.

A friend just emailed and wants a group of us to go on 3/24. I wonder if we can get tickets.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I just saw a preview for the 21 Jump Street movie. Damn.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

And now I just saw a preview for "Mirror Mirror," the Snow White movie with Julia Roberts. Daaaamn.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I just saw a preview for the 21 Jump Street movie. Damn.

Currently has a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. As opposed to A Thousand Words, which has a 0%.

And now I just saw a preview for "Mirror Mirror," the Snow White movie with Julia Roberts. Daaaamn.

Yeeeeah, pretty much. And I don't even have anything against Julia Roberts.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

See, I thought the 21 Jump Street looked supremely stupid, but that Mirror Mirror could be cute and shallow and mildly enjoyable, and I *do* have something against Julia Roberts.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I don't even care about Julia Roberts one way or the other. I'm all in on both upcoming Snow White movies just for the costume and design porn.

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

Currently has a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes

What the everfucking fuck? I can't even sit through the trailer without wanting to self-harm.

Movie trailer bug: every promo monkey latching on to the Inception BRRRRR!!!! for their trailers. That was a singular sound. Find your own, darnit. Please stop cashing in on the pavlovian response to mystery and awesome. Because at least Inception included that bone chilling deep note in the movie itself.

Nolan shoulda copyrighted that sound and locked it away for at least a decade. Keep it away from lesser movies! Or at least their trailers.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Whoever is behind the other Snow White movie -- the one with Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron -- must be chortling in glee because Mirror, Mirror makes their movie look so much better.
