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’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

You people are KILLING me.

I almost bought a t-shirt the other day that said "I like my men feisty, fanged, and furry", but I did not want to even vaguely appear to be supporting this whole ridiculousness.

Starting Tuesday (11/10) all Criterion Collection DVDs and Blu-ray are 50% off at Barnes and Noble shops and on-line. This offer is through the end of the year while supplies last.

oooOOOOOooooo...

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I might have to pick up the Criterion of I Know Where I'm Going, even though I just burned a dvd of it from the TCM broadcast over the summer.

This trailer for Clash of the Titans almost made me choke. [link]

Genius tagline!

Also, given the one snippet of dialogue, I kind of expect Sam Jackson to turn up all, "I have had it with these motherfucking scorpions on this motherfucking peninsula!"

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Wow. That's...wow.

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

What...the hell?

I believe I will stick with the original, which I love quite a bit.

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

That trailer was awesome in an over the top way, but I have no interest in the movie, if that makes any sense.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

It's missing Greased Harry Hamlin. Fuck scorpions. I want Greased Harry Hamlin!

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

For Your Consideration: The 50 Most Despicable Oscar Snubs of the 2000s: [link]

I agree with John Cameron Mitchell (I mean WTF does a man have to do????), Buscemi and Johansson for Ghost World, In the Mood for Love for Best Foreign Film, Uma for Kill Bill, and WALL-E for Best Picture (it was the best film of 08). I would also add Joseph Gordon-Levitt for Mysterious Skin. He broke me so hard in that movie.

ETA: Also agree with Mulholland Drive for Best Picture. Loved that movie!

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

Sasha Baron Cohen for Borat? Come on. Crack.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Children of Men didn't get any Oscar nominations. It should have at the least gotten a cinematography nod.

edit: that's Children, not City. Duh.
