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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

SPEAK ENGLISH.

Instead of whatever they speak in England?

(Side note: I watched Bridesmaids this week. Rebel Wilson is in it! And hilarious in it.)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

It did not escape my attention that the metric system is in use everywhere but the US, including England. Hence, a little joke.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

FTR, Matt, it wasn't me - I'm totally down with the magical disappearing pants. I think that was Juliebird with her logical pants.

If Hemsworth is 6'3", Renner, RDJ, and Ruffalo are probably no taller than I am (5'8", or 172.7 cm). Possibly shorter. Hard to tell from a candid photo where people aren't standing up straight and lined up next to each other.

When hotties start looking like tinies.

Tiny hot men! Collect the whole set!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Renner, Downy et al aren't SMALL. They're COMPACT.

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

For no particular reason, the young Helen Mirren and the scandalously (at the time) much younger Liam Neeson.

John Waters was picked up hitchhiking in Ohio by indie band Here We Go Magic.

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

10 Toy-Based Movies Ideas That Would Blow Away Battleship

Movie Idea: Connect Four
Tagline: Fear, diagonally.

Elevator pitch: Milton Bradley's abstract strategy game transforms into an apocalyptic race against time in this sci-fi blockbuster, starring Ryan Gosling and Rihanna as technocratic dictators (and ex-lovers) locked in a perpetual war of mutually assured destruction and reconstruction on the planet Ouroboros. After erecting, then annihilating, exquisite tech-noir skyscrapers and impossibly high vertical farms using strategically placed death discs, it is left to a brilliant but raunchy elderly mathematician (Betty White) to unite the ex-lovers with a perfect-play strategy inspired by James D. Allen and Victor Allis, who solved the game on Earth in the late '80s. Catchphrases from the game's TV commercial -- "Here, diagonally" and "Pretty sneaky, sis" -- are incorporated into the film's final moments, when the formerly self-centered Gosling asks the formerly obstinate Rihanna how she would like to be kissed.

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

Connect Four: The Movie trailer. Rated R for violence, violence, more violence, some intense stuff, and maybe some more violence.

Connect Four trailer. Somehow this one is about throwing plates.

Connect Four Million. Lost spoilers!

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

I poked around the Hasbro site the other day, and made a list of the potential next blockbuster movies, and I can't even find it.

Still, I think Jenga will be breath-holding, spine-tingling, on-the-edge-of-your-seat exciting. I can't wait to see it in 3D.
