Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

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.

Hey. New board.

I was sad to lose No More, mostly because I loves that baker but I actually didn't mind Children Will Listen. I thought that theme came across beautifully without it.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

It sounds like they've cut out my favorite songs. I'm not entirely sure I need to go see it now.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Calli, I'm having the same reaction you are.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I never got the Into the Woods love. I never have listened to the music, so I'm finding myself reluctant to see it.

Hey. New board.

I really do think it is worth it, though perfect it is not. I am significantly more satisfied than I was with Les Miz and Sweeney Todd, and I thought those were both worth it too.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's so much better than Sweeney Todd, which I was not happy with.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Holy crap. Nothing Lasts Forever made in 1984 but never released, is on TCM tonight. The film, by SNL’s Tom Schiller, is definitely worth checking out.

More about it here.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I loved Les Mis, if I could mentally recast Javert. I thought Into the Woods was entertaining, but I missed a lot of the stuff they cut, and I disagreed with a lot of the choices made of how to stage things, and there are several casting choices I didn't like. Sweeney Todd, I thought was OK, but I haven't really had any urge to see it again after seeing it once.

Sweeney Todd's more vocally challenging than Into the Woods, and they didn't cast fucking singers.

Hey. New board.

I liked every single casting choice in Into the Woods, but did not really like anybody in Les Mis except Ann Hathaway. Different strokes.
