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.

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

Cinderella's Prince IS the wolf, that's the ENTIRE FUCKING POINT

Oh god I didn't even notice that. No no no!

Because books.

Aw, I loved Chicago! But I went in with no expectations. I think my biggest complaint was Renee Zellweger's squintiness.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I expected Richard Gere to suck mightily in Chicago, so I was surprised that he didn't. I cannot stand Renee Zellweger, though, so I wasn't overly fond of the movie as a whole.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My complaint about Chicago is Renee Zellwegers arms (too muscled)

I think Joss showed his understanding of Into the Woods better in the last episode of Buffy (I always think that "what are we going to do now" and the final "I wish" are so similar) than these people who are doing this casting. Anna Kendrick would be a better Ridibg Hood. Or Kristen Bell. Or even Amanda Seyfried . These are adult roles

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

I watched this Japanese horror flick last night and it wasn't horrifying. And while there were a couple of creepy parts, it was mostly a yawn. Man. I was prepared for the worst. Maybe I picked a bad one?

It was Ju-on: The Grudge.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It's my pick for the scariest of all the J-horror imports in recent years (and it had me jumpy for a while afterwards despite many, many years of horror movie desensitization). Maybe that particular story just didn't grab you?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I admit I haven't watched many, but Audition is my favourite horror movie in a long while.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Audition was creepy as all fuck. There's something about Japanese and Korean horror that scares the hell outta me; I don't know why it's worse than American horror. American horror makes me jump and yelp, but once the movie's over it's gone. Japanese and Korean horror sticks with me and keeps me awake at night.

It didn't help that a door spring in the bathroom of the restaurant I ate at immediately after seeing it made the same sound that Kayako made when closing in for the kill in that office building restroom.

It's just very fortunate that I was already peeing when I heard it.

Wow. Really? Yeah, maybe I wasn't in the mood for it? I thought it was kind of boring.
