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.

OK, how have we not shared the Comic Con Star Wars reel yet?

I want to be skeptical, I do, but!

Harrison Ford is wearing the same jacket!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I think I'm more excited about seeing Mark Hamill again

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

I really didn't want to be excited about another Star Wars movie, but they're really starting to get to me. Practical effects!

Compassionately intolerant

I have been all manner of BOO!! (hear that in Carol Kane's voice in The Princess Bride) since the moment I heard about the new movies.

Today changed all that.

I am now breathless with anticipation!

I am very happy for all of my friends who are Star Wars fans. That behind the scenes thing was awesome.

(I like the original movies, but they have never really been a linchpin of my fannish life.)

Fury Road! THAT WAS SO GOOD

A couple of observations before I go back and read what everyone else said (and, I assume, nod a great deal). some of the visuals really reminded me of City of Lost Children, possibly because of all the goggles, but also something about the framing, I think. And that one scene when Max come back with the bag of ammo, so reminiscent of one of my favorite bits of Seven Samurai (with the one particularly badass samurai deciding that, yes, this would be easier if they had one of those guns) I'm just gonna go ahead and consider an homage.

I enjoyed Trainwreck way more than I thought I would. Also, be forewarned, I cried more than I thought I would.

Oh my god that looks like the best thing ever.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

There’s no word on when it’ll come out, but we’re assured that Gutterdammerung is "coming to a Hell near you soon".

Awesome!
