Lorne: You know what they say about people who need people. Connor: They're the luckiest people in the world. Lorne: You been sneaking peeks at my Streisand collection again, Kiddo? Connor: Just kinda popped out.

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.

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 remember reading the X-Men in space comics. I don't remember the Guardians, though.
My only experience with them was their one appearance on Avengers: EMH and Starlord was voiced by Steve Downes (The Master Chief from Halo.)
Downes is actually the morning DJ on one of the local stations around here (which is actually where Bungie decided to hire him from, as they were originally based in Chicago before MS bought them) and it's still a weird disconnect some mornings hearing the Master Chief shilling for AT&T and talking about "Today in rock history".

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I think you might be confusing the Guardians of the Galaxy with the Starjammers, Hec.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Definitely looking forward to Guardians of the Galaxy. It looks like it takes itself as unseriously as the concept demands.
And the trailer gets bonus points for gratuitous Blue Swede.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I think you might be confusing the Guardians of the Galaxy with the Starjammers, Hec.
You're totally right.

Ha, I knew you were talking about the Starjammers, but I thought they hung out with the Guardians in the comics or something (see above re: only watching the cartoon).

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Back in the 70s, Marvel was on the verge of going out of business, and they had an inkling that Space Opera was going to be big, so they kept creating stuff and throwing it against the wall, and seeing if it would stick. (Including a very bizarre adapation of 2001: A Space Odyssey). They finally hit paydirt when they got the license to adapt Star Wars, which pretty much saved the company single-handedly.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
That tagline, oh my God.
It's wunderbar. The only problem is it'll be hard to live up to it.
Now I want to see a remake of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" strictly for the tagline: Because wine.
