Buffistas

Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

Dawn ,'The Killer In Me'

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 got to see Crimson Peak in a Superlux theatre, with chairs you could sink up to your chin in, and waitrons to bring you popcorn, regular food, and/or adult beverages.

I could have been happy just to watch the costumes, and occasionally notice there were actors inhabiting them, but luckily the acting values were up to the fabric.

I came away from it reflecting that many pre-Raphaelite paintings could only be improved by depicting knife fights.

Despite knowing, in some sense, that Jessica Chastain was in the movie, I completely did not recognize her, between the hair color and the accent.

"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

Me either. When I first saw her, I thought "would they do a Michael Douglas de-aging on Mary Elizabeth Mastrontonio for an entire movie?"

I was also doubting myself about Jim Beaver and remembered to double check the credits to make sure it was him. Not the slightest trace of Bobby Singer in that role.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

IT DID THINGS TO ME.

I JUST WATCHED THE TRAILER SO EXCITED.

But where is LUKE?

And why is Leia only being comforted?

I sort of recognized Jim Beaver, and I knew it was someone from Deadwood, but I had to check the cast list to be sure. He was quite good.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Despite knowing, in some sense, that Jessica Chastain was in the movie, I completely did not recognize her, between the hair color and the accent.

Me neither! She just vanished into that role.

I thought it was Jim Beaver, but I wasn't positive, and it took me a long time to be sure because I realized I'd never heard him speak with a non-Southern/Western accent. I started to hear the Beaver in his voice after a while and felt more confident it was him, and the credits confirmed it.
