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

(nodding at all of your reactions). Just wanted to chime into to say I saw it in a large theater last night and the scene discussed above with a key performance by Jenny Agutter's character (white font)

the ENTIRE audience groaned out loud when the mask pulled off out of sheer disappointment. Every one. To a person. The reaction was spectacular .

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Okay, that's hilarious. That reaction seems to be universal.

t edit And yet, I bet if it had actually been real, people/reviewers would have been saying it was totally unrealistic (within the logic/rules of a comic-book movie).

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Every (fannish) reaction I've read has said the same.

Compassionately intolerant

That reaction makes me glad to be part of humanity!

Is Jenny Agutter someone I'm supposed to know?

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

The stranger next to me (a man who was in his 30s or 40s) actually exclaimed "dammit" when the mask was pulled off .

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Nice interview with the writers (major spoilers, do not click if you haven't seen the movie).

The reaction of the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. cast to the movie is pretty funny:

I know they showed the movie to the cast of the show, and when the third act happened, their jaws dropped. They were like, "Do we have jobs anymore?" It's gonna be fun for the show. It gives them a direction to go; it motivates them.

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.

Dang it, P-C, I was just about to link that and highlight that same quote.

I'm beginning to think you're the Clairvoyant.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just this moment realized she's sister Julienne on Call the Midwife!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Is Jenny Agutter someone I'm supposed to know?

I love Jenny Agutter! She was in American Werewolf in London, and Logan's Run and Walkabout.

Sort of a cult British 70s actress.
