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.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I was actually expecting the sign to read I'm an intern!

What I haven't figured out is the deal with Japan and the little girls transforming/trapping the ghost in the frog. Are their rules different? Wouldn't the **** be infuriated that they didn't get their sacrifice of a dozen nine year olds?

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

Julie - The way the Director was talking at the end, I think all the "stations" were just multiple redundancy, since even if only the US station succeeded, the Old Gods would stay asleep. So all of them were doing propitiation of the same ****, they just did it differently according to their cultures.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

P-C, yep, it was Dan's turn for the Extra Loud Geek Guffaw on that one!

But he just finished watching all 5 seasons of Angel in order on Sunday, so he's extra-steeped in geek right now. Poor boy did all the season of SPN before that.

(I'm so proud...)

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

I just watched Young Adult. I haven't felt so weirdly conflicted about a movie in a while. It's not a bad movie. It's a good movie I didn't particularly enjoy watching.

Fred,

I used to LOVE the Three Stooges when I was a kid. Watched the reruns on weekends. I'm not sure I found it funny, but I loved to watch them with a Shirley Temple movies.

I run far away from slapstick now. I just don't like it much for slapstick sake. You couldn't pay me to watch the movie.

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

I was a big THree Stooges fan as a kid. The preview for the movie did absolutely nothing for me. So I don't know if it's the movie, or if I just got tired of the slapstick.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I laughed my way through American Reunion so I'm pretty sure it's not aversion to slapstick that's behind my make-sign-of-the-cross reaction to the Stooges movie.
