Saw this elsewhere and it just made me smile and smile.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
And you'll get to find out who's his favorite dwarf.
I'm gonna guess: Thorin Fuckinshield.

It didn't even occur to me. Not that I knew who he was when the movies came out.

There may be some resistance in my house; Mal is appalled that the Lego set shows Legolas "and some random elf" fighting the spiders. While he thinks Legolas is the bomb, he can't believe the movie got that scene wrong.

The reviews started coming out last week - it's been very mixed all around.
Everyone agrees it's long and overstuffed, but whether that's good or bad depends on how much you like reading the LotR appendices.

(Spoiler alert: his name is not Figwit.)
(Though I'm hoping somewhere in the script notes it lists him as "Lindor, whom the Men call Figwit in the Common Tongue.")
