Man, staying off the internets is HARD, yo.

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.

Ha, the movie has inspired a (spoilery) meme.
The sloth is AWESOME.
Saturday night we were watching the old Wonder Woman TV show, and for some reason there were (whitefonting because the description could lead people who haven't seen CA2 yet to put 2 and 2 together) Nazis (despite it being the 1970s) who cloned Hitler (I am not even joking about that shit).
Wonder Woman and Steve infiltrated, like they do, and clone!Hitler was delivering a rousing speech, which made me keep yelling "Hail Hydra!" at the TV. But I wasn't even CLOSE to being as cute as that sloth.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Steph, not an uncommon trope at the time. For example, Boys from Brazil or Marathon Man, movies from the '70s where the villains were also Nazis .

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That meme reminded me to be publicly impressed with what Chris Pratt did to himself. Damn, son.

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.
Though it was 1980, don't forget Blues Brothers. "I hate Illinois Nazis."

That was in my white-font, but I failed at indicating there was white-font.

Oh, oops. I didn't realize there was white font. It's sneaky that way.

Thrive to spite them
Somehow I have a subscription to US magaizine. It just showed up around the holidays and I have no idea where it came from so I flip through it and then recycle it.
There was a mini review of Winter Soldier the only good thing was the big picture was Natasha running with an insent picture of Captain America.
They gave the movie 2 starts out of 4.
Here's a comic book flick in which the audience has a superpower: the ability to anticipate very beat on screen! Now unfrozen from World War II, the super-soldier teams up with frisky Natasha to flush out the villan who as compromised their agency. (Naturally, the entire world is at stake.) Every gotcha twist leads to a bombastic explosion, which leads to a groaner of a quip ("I guess he's the bad guy!"). Consider this pure Marvel filler until Avengers 2.
The other reviews I've seen have been positive. And everyone at work loved it. Another coworker and I were kind of teasing someone (who was seeing it after work) by quoting randomly or making vague references.
