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.

If you didn't want to do the legwork in calculating Avenger screentime: [link] (doesn't include Fury or Loki).
I would not have guessed that Steve actually got more screentime than Tony, as I was left wanting more of the former and less of the latter.
Loki seemed to know plenty about the Earth when he was visiting Thor during his imprisonment in the Branagh film. I gathered that he may have traveled to the planet on his own and learned a thing or two prior to the events of that movie.

In Norse lore Loki hangs out on Earth a lot, being a trickster god and whatnot.

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

Yeah. That's why the Vikings have never won a Super Bowl.

The Great Gatsby. [link]
I don't think I am going to watch this in the theater. Robert Redford = Gatsby to me.

I do like the cast, though, and think they can be interesting in Baz Luhrmann's hands. But I have no great attachment to the story in any version.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
This is probably sacrilege, but I did not like Moulin Rouge. I loved Strictly Ballroom and I watch that a couple of times a year. I did not like Romeo + Juliet either.
I don't think he's my kind of director.

Oh, I love Moulin Rouge. I almost watched it today, actually. I'm eh on Romeo + Juliet, although I can appreciate what he did with it. Haven't seen the other.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I never watch movies in the theatre (the last move I saw in the theatre was Chicago), but I have watched all the Baz Luhrman films in the theatre, and they are usually so lush it is worth it. One thing I love about him is the humor in his over the top ness, which I can't really imagine in Gatsby, though. I laughed a lot in R +J and MR.
