I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

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.

I'm looking forward to that movie. It may be a glorious train wreck, but I like Ritchie's stuff.

My inner Ari says moving it back? Not the greatest sign. However, December is sort of a prestige dumping ground, isn't it?

move out and draw fire

Adding a whole character 4 months before the original sked release date is not a good sign.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The story's already been updated:

Brad Pitt won't be joining the cast of Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes after all.

a studio rep tells Us: "The report in today’s London Mirror is completely inaccurate. Brad Pitt is not joining the cast of Sherlock Holmes and we're extremely pleased with the production of the film. As planned, it will be released on Christmas Day, 2009. In order to complete the movie, we've scheduled a few days on set to shoot a couple of additional scenes, obtain pick-up shots, and perfect some of the visual effects elements, all of which is standard filmmaking practice."

Bad trashy gossip mags! No biscuit!

Because books.

Yeah. I mean, the trailers have already been released. That's ... disappointing.

"Robert, it's like bad pussy. Forget you sniffed it and move on."(/endless Medellin references) I really hope that's not true, though.

Last night I watched Legends of the Fall with the commentary on - the director and Brad Pitt. It was pretty interesting.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

We're watching The Transporter 3, and Jason Statham just beat up a bunch of guys with his clothes.

I was hoping he'd have to choke a bitch with his pants, but sadly not.

Compassionately intolerant

I love Jason Statham entirely too much...and, by extension, the Transporter series. But I have to say, 3 left me cold. Despite that guy from Prison Break, who is awesome.

Though the vanquishing the enemy with your suit jacket is a scene I'm thrilled is included in each movie. So, very cool.

If they make another, I hope they'll spend a teensy bit more time on story and the supporting characters. The love interest in 1 and the kid and the crazy blond chick in 2 and the French cop in both made me _care_ about why the driver is so cool. It's not just the arms and the spectacular driving.
