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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I think the Austrian one was well received, but this one generally wasn't, and I'm wondering what the difference is/was.

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

A review of Ong Bak 2 (this review seems to have spoilers).

This sounds like one crazy movie. I did not see Ong Bak. Apparently there is an Ong Bak 3 planned.

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

Ong Bak was awesome.

The Protector was... let us never speak of it again.

Ong Bak 2 sounds insane which of course means that we will own it in many formats.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Wow. Ong Bak was pretty great, 2 sounds like something I will have to see.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

My bf just had a minigasm at work and doesn't know why. He has a huge mancrush on Jaa. He will be very jazzed to know this.

amych is me. Though the scene with the elephant skeleton nearly did me in. I could cry just thinking about it now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Was The Protector the elephant one? We didn't finish that.

Okay, so The Protector wasn't a good movie to judge by.

Hey. New board.

I should have mentioned that I really liked Adventureland, and you should all definitely see it.

I saw the Wild Things movie last weekend and it made me cry. Liked it a lot. Didn't love it as much as I thought I would, though. I, as per usual, found myself nodding along with Ebert's review.
