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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I don't suppose it will be about people buying scores of booster packs in search of the one card that will complete their deck or arguing about whether or not the card their opponent just played was made illegal by the latest rules revision.

Or about 10-year-old card brokers who rip open a pack and dicker their cards to the people standing around till they've parlayed their mediocre rare and uncommons into a 300% increase on investment.
That kid is either a millionaire or in prison by now. Or both.

Hah, Connie. I'd love to see a highly successful stock broker in a movie talking about how he got his start at a young age trading Magic cards.

It was fun to have them peering over my shoulder as I opened a new pack and to start making offers. Heady days.

Jason Dohring interview over at Buzzfeed re. VM movie: [link]
Biceps, hello! He's got Vulcan ears.
“A lot of that emotion was very real for me. I think I was in love with [Kristen] for the three years we made that show,” he says. “Like, I truly felt like I would die without her, and I think that’s what underlined everything people loved about them as a couple.”
Hahaha. Dohring was married (and still is to the same woman, as far as I know) the entire time they filmed VM. I'm pretty sure it's just a show business speaks for immersing yourself in a role but that's gonna stir up fringey tinhat faction of VM fandom something fierce (I'm sure there is one).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
He was saying stuff like that when the show was on the air too. Oh, Jason.

Oh man, my LoVe feelings were so enormous.

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