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.

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

Woody Allen signed. Andrew Sullivan commented on this amazing "lack of self-awareness."

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

OTOH, Kevin Smith is now even more crushworthy to me.

My biggest heartsick moments on the list of signatories were Wes Anderson and Jonathan Demme. It hurts just to type those names.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'm guessing that for the most part they are completely misled as to the nature of the crime and the so-called miscarriage of justice -- there's so much misinformation out there, particularly as a result of the documentary.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I was heartbroken by a quote from Whoopi Goldberg saying he should be forgiven. I know people aren't their roles, but she played Celie in The COlor Purple for gosh sakes.

I may be a bit irrational about the whole thing, because my cousin was raped and sodomized from the time she was 12 until she was 16 by her own father, and when he told her she was "too old" and he would have to move on to her sister she told my mom. There was a lot of court battle/time, but he got a very light sentance and also used to call and tghreatgen my mother (she was a social worker so she was obligated to report, although I am sure she would have anyway).

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

I knew about Woody Allen and I just shook my head. Of *course* he would support Polanski (I have a very low opinion of Allen, btw). I did not know about the others, though.

Wow.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I was heartbroken by a quote from Whoopi Goldberg saying he should be forgiven.

That and differentiating between "rape" and "rape-rape."

Culture of Rape? You're soaking in it.
