There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Was it ever made clear in the movie how Bane knew Bruce Wayne was Batman? Were we supposed to think he was just smart like that, or (in retrospect) were we supposed to think that Talia told him?

I was going with him just being smart like that, but Tim thinks it's the latter explanation.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

First time around I thought (a) but the second time I thought (b). It's never made explicit.

Or maybe everyone in the League of Shadows knows. I mean, how many American billionaire ex-members could they have?

In the comics, Bane figures it out, because he's smart like that. So that's what I was going with. But after the Talia reveal, when we know they've been working together all along, it's definitely plausible that she just told him.

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

The thing that drives me crazy is how images in the movie (TDKR) seemed to confuse who Al Ghul was, NOT Liam Neeson .

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

le nub, now I'm having visions of Roby Roy or Qui Gon Jinn showing up in TDKR. Possibly also Aslan.

Otherwise, I'm not sure what you mean.

Because books.

So young. I had no idea about the heart attack. That's sad.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I just saw that, sj.

He was one of the few reasons to watch that Bones spinnoff. I just liked watching him.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sad.

He was wonderful in that. I really enjoyed him in the few things I have seen him in.
