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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Oh jeez, we're not going to see Ple for a month.

Oh, I'll pop in from time to time! Rest of the house is here until school starts, so my viewing time is limited, after all.

My friend Gwyn and I have discovered that it is still showing at the second run theatre near IKEA.

I am considering moving into IKEA.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Looking at Film Critic Hulk's analysis: along with the add-on to get rid of asscaps, is there one that will change "compliment" to "complement" when the latter is obviously the intended word?

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.

GotG was number one at the box office again this weekend. Not sure how often movies re-take the top spot 4 weeks out.

brillig

Probably a commentary on the other movie options that people wanted to see GotG instead.

"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

Yeah, even the top contenders were in the teens this week, so it wasn't a huge resurgence so much as no big new films debuting and everything else having a steeper drop-off.

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

Finally caught up with GotG last night. I thought it was okay, not great. Most of the elements that I liked about it, I could point you to the episode of Farscape where they were done better. And I thought the set pieces were, for the most part, pretty dull. (With the exception of the prison break, which was fun. And I thought the way the Nova ships created the shield was neat, but holy god does every movie in the world have to end with a giant spaceship crashing into a city now?)

I think if I'd seen a preview screening before there was any hype, I would have enjoyed it more - I know I would have laughed more if I hadn't been spoiled for literally every joke in the film. (My own fault for not avoiding spoilers, but I never know if/when I'm going to see movies these days, so I don't bother.)
