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'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.

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

The biggest surprise was Bautista's Drax, who was yet another key point of comic relief and good characterization.

Film Crit Hulk has a really good analysis of how the GotG script uses humor to establish character and draw the audience into the narrative.

There's often nothing worse than explaining a joke, but that is a GOOD essay.

I really liked that.

I'm watching RDJ's Holmes 2. Good lord, Steven Fry is a splendid Mycroft. And Mrs. Watson kicks butt.

Link to the Film Crit Hulk review? I looked up FilmCritHulk.wordpress.com and it's not there.
