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 totally missed this: Tyler Perry is Alex Cross now.

For a hot second, I really liked these James Patterson books, but before he became a brand instead of an author, his quality dipped dramatically. So I don't have an emotional reaction to the recasting of Morgan Freeman with MADEA, just giggles. Good on Perry for moving out of his box (well, his box and Star Trek).

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

After watching the Hulu featurette, I'm even more excited about Les Miserables. Vocal performances on camera.

Wow. I'm watching Cabin In The Woods (yeah, last person ever) and it's really hard to look away from. Like, I can look away from anything, but this has made me paranoid of missing stuff. Good job, team.

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

I will be interested in your reactions to the ending of the film. I was really with the movie until the last third.

I still don't know what I think about that last third of the movie.

I'm not finishing it before tomorrow at the earliest, so I'll be back then.

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

Whereas the last third was what made the movie super awesome for me.
