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.
Teppy, there is the Marvel Illustrated's Pride & Prejudice short series of comics!
Hee. That was amusing.
And I just looked up Glycon on Wikipedia, and WTF, Alan Moore?

Heeeeeey! I might be able to do that!
It's a five-issue run. First issue came out in April, and my comic book store had back-ordered all the issues that've come out so far. Trade comes out October 28, looks like.
In what way is this movie The Goods anything but a cheap remake of Used Cars with a much less likeable protagonist than Kurt Russell?

Sam Raimi has signed on to direct "Warcraft," the live-action film adaptation of the fantasy videogame franchise "World of Warcraft."
Legendary Pictures and vidgame publisher Blizzard Entertainment are mounting the film, and Warner Bros. will co-finance and distribute. The team boasts an impressive pedigree: In addition to the director of "Spider-Man," the partners have added "The Dark Knight" producer Charles Roven to the creative mix.
The plan is for Raimi to supervise development of "Warcraft" and shoot the picture after he completes work on "Spider-Man 4," which gets under way early next year for Columbia Pictures.
This is weird, Harry Potter is supposed to be in the local dollar movie this weekend, that seems awful fast. And they've only got two showings a day, early afternoon and 10 PM. Night at the Museum is on two screens.
I wasn't crazy about HP6. I think the reason is that there wasn't a whole lot of plot. All that time was spent with Drago and the vanishing cabinet but to what end? So that some Deatheaters could come through, smash up Hogwarts' Great Hall and set fire to a hut? The Deatheaters were completely unnecessary to killing Dumbledore, so why were they even there? Without the book's big battle, they were redundant.
I thought the Teen Hormone bits were charming but overemphasized. And I agree with Jessica(?) that Ginny's shoelace-tying-blowjob was just weird.
In related news, this bit from the New Yorker's Anthony Lane proves that slash-recognition can be found in the oddest places:
Unless I am mistaken, [Dumbledore] himself has a quiet thing for Harry, forever putting an arm around his shoulder. "Wands out, Harry," he commands.
