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.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Rogue One trailer: [link]

That looks pretty cool. I mean, the thing I REALLY want is Episode VIII trailer but while that one is baking, we'll have another Star Wars movie to look forward to at the end of the year.

Internet is already speculating that the lead character in Rogue One may be Rey's mother, on account of them both being hazel-eyed brunettes. *raises eyebrows*

I gotta hand it to Kathleen Kennedy and Co. though, for their continuing effort at diversity.

So we're watching Now You See Me. This is a deeply stupid movie. I'm not even enjoying Mark Ruffalo and Morgan Freeman.

I missed my chance to ever watch that movie. Jesse Eisenberg is now at Nicholas Cage levels of Do Not Want for me.

The plot of Now You See Me, as far as I can make out, is: A group of douchebag magicians have a contest to see which one is the biggest douchebag, with the surprise ending that Mark Ruffalo is the biggest douchebag of them all.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Yes, that is the plot. Naturally, they're making a second one.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I was an extra in NYSM! But I've never seen it, mostly because I've heard how stupid it is.

They did pronounce "Burgundy" right. But it's Mardi Gras in New Orleans in the movie. Because it's always Mardi Gras in New Orleans. They didn't show any parades or anything, but Bourbon Street was packed and people were wearing beads. Because it was Mardi Gras.

Oh, they were also able to get an apartment in the heart of the Quarter (during Mardi Gras) because a French Interpol agent was on the team.

Let me guess: they did NOT interject a dose of reality by having any of the characters groped by or thrown up upon by drunken revelers in the crowd?

All that needs to be said about After Earth is that Will Smith's character is named "Cypher Raige." Excuse me, " General Cypher Raige."

"Starring Jaden Smith" was all I needed to know to take a hard pass.
