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.

Just as a klutz with a cat that freaks out when picked up.

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

I saw Deadpool on the weekend. * Oh god the Hugh Jackman cracks so many Hugh Jackman cracks. So, so funny. *

I saw Zootopia last night. The characters are good and the animation is beautiful but I wouldn't rush out to see it if I wasn't taking kids.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Am I correct in interpreting this as, "If you are taking kids, this is at least decent and will not make you want to gouge your eyes out"? At least, I dearly hope this is the correct interpretation, since I'm pretty sure I will indeed end up seeing it as Matilda's movie date.

Hey. New board.

I read at least one review that says it is the best CG Disney movie to date. Take with whatever salt you want but it will probably be decent at least.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I finally watched "Lucy" tonight. That was surprisingly meh, for a quasi-superhero movie starring Scarlett Johansson. Glad I didn't pay theater prices.

The trailer looked hilarious.

Yes. It's actually better than that, but, predictable is not quite the right word, nor is boring, let's just that I was sort of ahead of it and impatiently waiting for it to unfold. Also, the "message" is spread very thickly throughout.

They lost me by having the sloth sequence be 90% of the trailer. I was clawing at my seat expectantly waiting for the next preview to start so I wouldn't have to watch/listen to that anymore.

Ha! The sloth was what I found hilarious.

As always, different people like different shit.
