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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

The Fox and the Hound is the one Disney movie that I remember crying and begging to leave as a child.

Because books.

I hated The Fox and the Hound. I didn't see it until I was an adult, but Jake LOVED it and wanted to watch it all the time. Hearing Jack Albertson as the mean old man just horrified me.

Honestly, I don't really remember anything about it. I never attempted to watch it again after making my mother leave the theater.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Let's have an Old Yeller slumber party!

I've never actually seen either movie, but I have read Old Yeller. Kat says "Roll Of Thunder Hear My Cry" isn't sad, but I think she's crazy. We could just have a weepy reading club.

Always Anti-fascist!

I also thought Enough Said was both great, and pretty absent some big Trailer Moment, which is kind of what I liked about it.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Where the Read Fern Grows was my big childhood introduction to animal death-based trauma. Not the best choice for my four-year-old self's first movie at the theaters.

The only Disney animated film I recall being bothered by as a kid was Peter Pan, when the alligator was trying to eat Captain Hook. And that sequence is still pretty disturbing to this day.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I was really scared of the big black dragon in Sleeping Beauty.
