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.

Didn't take the time to count, but from a scan, I'd say I've seen about 85 to 90 % of that list.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I've seen 66 but I only own 4.

If Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind made the list I think The Manchurian Candidate belongs there too.

the box office success of Independence Day led to the resurgence of the big sci-fi event movie,

...What? No, what? What are they talking about? Just looking at the other movies included in the list (Jurassic Park & Terminator 2, for instance), it's clear how little sense that makes.

I should have stopped reading at #3.

Yeah I started to get really mad in the 80s. Serenity is only slightly better than Dune?

Anything's better than Dune.

Except, of course, The Last Action Hero.

Hey! That was a cool movie! It was mis-promoted.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

I also stand with Connie. Last Action Hero is a very clever movie, and one of Ahnold's best. Shane Black co-wrote the screenplay. He was also responsible for The Long Kiss Goodnight, Monster Squad, and, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.

As for the list; about the only thing I got worked up enough about was not having Galaxy Quest, Serenity, and Dark City closer to the top.
