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'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I think it is clear (at least by the end) that it's not Toothless' fault, and Hiccup doesn't blame him, but no lie, it's pretty sad.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Watched Enough Said, the James Gandolfini/Julia Louis-Dreyfus movie last night. It seems like it would have been really hard to promote effectively even if Gandolfini hadn't died before it came out, but I quite liked it.

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

Kalshane, I took Matilda to see it and she's pretty sensitive to such stuff. And she understood that Toothless was under control of the Alpha Dragon. Which is also explicitly stated by another character.

We really enjoyed the movie.

I thought it was a great combination of the sweetness and "realness" of a new relationship.

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

The kids I was with weren't affected by that scene, other than one of them being annoyed at how different the movies are from the books.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Oh, one thing I forgot about Edge of Tomorrow: I would love to see a movie of nothing but Rita and Mako Mori kicking all kinds of ass.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

We get to see How to Train Your Dragon 2 next weekend at the WGA. Looking forward to it.

Yes. I also appreciated that the ending didn't let her off the hook for her sketchy choices. And the thing with the guy with all the stairs. Very nice.

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.

Thanks for the additional information, Hec and Jessica.

How old is Matilda now, Hec? I want to say she's a year older than Mattias (he just turned 7) but my tracking of time isn't the greatest these days. (Side note, congratulations to Emmett on the high school graduation.)

While I hate to give the kid spoilers, the better half thinks he may be okay with it if we explain it to him ahead of time. He still asks us from time to time why characters do certain things, so he may not completely understand the context of the scene, even if it's blatant.

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

She's 7 now, Kal, going on 8 in September. She's super sensitive to sad stuff so she's your canary in a coal mine for this stuff.
