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 agree with -t that the Robocop trailer looks like fun. I just read an article about the upcoming Roadhouse remake, and of course the comments that didn't bemoan the inevitable apocalypse turned to casting:
At the top of my head I can only think of Chris Hemsworth as having the right badass-to-great-hair ratio.
Maybe Statham…..with a mullet-wig?
Bad guys – Fassbender’s a safe bet but not sure if he’d piss on this thing if it were on fire
Doesn't it have to be Statham? At least of those three?
But the funniest comments are the ones that say it can't be remade because it's good.
Homefront, where Jason Statham plays a redneck who beats up people, opens next week.
Is there a blind musician in it? The work might already be done.
Or Sam Elliot. Either of the two would be sufficient, both might be too much.
James Franco.
Patrick Swayze wasn't Patrick Swayze when he made Road House , was he? Is this a role that really calls for an in-demand actor?
I admit I think it would be hilarious if they cast someone like Seth Green or Scott Caan in the role, so that their eye level would be about even with the thug antagonists' midriffs.
James Franco.
That's interesting math.
Patrick Swayze wasn't Patrick Swayze when he made Road House , was he?
He's iconic in it, though. If you cast a nobody (he'd already made Dirty Dancing at this point, so he wasn't, though) you'd have to be really confident he is going to own it, since it's now a cult classic.
When did he become Patrick Swayze? The Roadhouse one, I mean?
Non-spoilery Catching Fire review that gets to the meat of the matter.
Except he's so wrong! I go into the movies thinking he's right, but by the end, he's wrong. Both times. And his Twilight argument is highly specious. COME ON.
I agree with him on the main point! Although his Twilight argument is specious indeed.
