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.
My only gripe was wasting Lee Pace as Generic Marvel Villain (TM). I couldn't see any there there other than unmotivated malice.
Yeah, on another site someone mentioned the only real acting Pace got to do was his befuddlement when Quill was trying to engage him in a dance-off.
To be fair, though, that was kind of awesome.
OK, I can agree with that.
I just saw it last night with my aunt! (She enjoyed it, btw)
During the dance-off scene, you know Pace has acting chops because he didn't crack up.
Amazing how so many of the characters have stayed with me into the next day. The biggest surprise was Bautista's Drax, who was yet another key point of comic relief and good characterization.

Yes. I totally didn't expect to like him, but he ended up being my favorite character.
I would like to star Theo and Steph's posts.
AS would I.
The thing that makes me even happier about Drax is that Bautista really, REALLY wanted the part and apparently broke down and wept when he heard he got it.
I've used the "over the head" quote in "straight" discussion, and it plays very well. Now, if it had his delivery...that would be a nice keeper clip.
