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 haven't seen any of the three movies in a few years. Netflix doesn't have them on streaming.

I was so excited to see Giant. I haven't seen it in years, and it has a lot of meaning for me, too -- my first boyfriend took me into New York to see it on a big screen on our first date.

Awwwwwww.
Who just went searching online for a used copy of the James Dean Collection? New sets are selling for $56+. I found one for $20 that is in "very good" condition. Let's hope so!

Score!
For the record, we did make out for an awful lot of the movie. But I've seen it many times since then!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
The World's End was a lot of fun! Edgar Wright clearly picked up a thing or two about fight scenes during Scott Pilgrim, holy fucking crap. Also, the "What the fuck?" exchange was great, but I was dying at the bit about pronouns.

I saw that yesterday myself, P-C. I really enjoyed the hell out of it. I probably liked Hot Fuzz better, but it's close on with Sean of the Dead for me (along with Paul and Scott Pilgrim which I think of as honorary members of the family).
That second bit you mentioned reminded me of something from Holy Grail.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
smonster, and those who appreciated the blue goo vs. something more blood-like, Edgar Wright said during a Q&A that I attended that he went with blue because red would have gotten him a higher rating. He may also have said something about test audiences also preferring it, but I misremember now.

Compassionately intolerant
I just...as in less than an hour ago...rewatched Men in Black.
What Sail just said with the Edgar Wright whitefont was totally present in that movie, but I never thought about it. Makes perfect sense that people would be less upset by blue, green, clear goo when someone explodes than red . Huh. Never thought of it like that before.

I thought it was brilliant myself.
