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 was?
So I finally finally watched Waitress tonight, in which Nathan Fillion is an adulterous gynecologist. (Although a very cute one.)
For a movie about adultery (among other things), it's remarkably hopeful. And mildly surprising, although when I got to the end I could see that of course it had to go there.
Still, that was fairly charming, and I'm sad all over again about Adrienne Shelly's death.

Ugh. One of the most horrifically random and pointless murders I've ever heard of. It still makes me cringe and have horrible death penalty fantasies even though I'm a true non-believer in that particular punishment. She was so wonderful in those early Hal Hartley movies. I still need to see Waitress, though.
Waitress was wonderful.
I would highly recommend seeing it.
Just... if you know a good place to get pie, it might be a good idea to watch it at a time they will be open when you finish the movie.
Just saw What We Do in the Shadows a totally hilarious and charming film about vampires in New Zealand, made by Jermaine Clement (half of Flight of the Conchords) and the unknown to me, but now a total crush, Taika Watiti. If it's near you, go see it! I can't imagine a Buffista not enjoying the hell out of it,
Thanks for the rec, Scrappy, I was wondering about that one.
I've really been wash bring to see it, but not quite enough to drive into DC
