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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Loki - re movie.

He seemed to know a helluva lot about the Avengers. Where did he acquire all of that knowledge?

From Clint, I assume. Or maybe watching through the Tesseract? I tend to assume that godlike aliens have special abilities to get information.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

One of the post-credit scenes in one of the movies had him lurking around SHIELD, didn't it?

Or maybe something to do with the after-credit scene from Thor? Maybe he wasn't tied exclusively to Skarsgaard's character, but could move about? Or Skarsgaard's character was unknowingly gathering info for him when Fury brought him in to S.H.I.E.L.D.?

eta post-credit x-post!

Ah, I missed that. Makes sense.

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

Except for the protagonists, because they have to stumble through a get-to-know-us phase while the chick falls in love with them.

Maybe looking like a doof (while the chick falls in love with him) is part of Thor's punishment for being such an arrogant so-and-so?

If it in any way bothered him or contributed to growth, maybe.

I'm not sure how the Queen is defeated: it might be one of the "she flew into a rage so great she burned herself up" moments.

The Queen is invited to the wedding of the prince and his new bride, not realizing that the new bride is Snow White. At the wedding, a pair of heated iron shoes are brought out with tongs, and the Queen is forced to wear them and dance until she dies.

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

There needs to be a movie of this.
