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.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Naked parachuting is like riding a motorcycle in flipflops. So not a good idea.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Theo, I think you meant to post that in F2F.

Er, I think you're right. I plead DST-induced coma.

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

Billytea, at least that would have been period-accurate!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I appreciate Theo's error. it gave me a laugh this morning.

Thanks to the movie, I have a mashup in my head of "99 Luftballoons" and "First We Take Manhattan."

It's a *weird* mashup, in case anyone was wondering.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

A friend pointed out to me that the elevator music during the attempted "assasaination" of Veidt was a muzak version of 'Everybody Wants to Rule the World', which would have caused me to laugh like a drain if I'd noticed.

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

FYI: Fox to strip special features from rental DVDs

20th Century Fox Home Entertainment will now start selling two versions of its regular DVDS, one with all the standard special features we've come to expect, and one with just the movie and trailers to be sold to rental shops like Blockbuster.

Yeah, 'cuz video rental places like Blockbuster have just been too successful lately....

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

Man, that blows. I hope it doesn't affect, say, the library or Redbox. I like having the option to see the damn special features, even if I don't always do it.

I really can't see why anyone would rent a DVD without special features vs just streaming it from Netflix (or wherever).
