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 terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'd say the first if it's a noun and the second if it's an adjective.

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

I'd say the first for a noun and the second for a verb. I'm currently drawing a blank on its usage as an adjective.

In this chapter, it's only used a noun.

My author is a master of inconsistency: mise-en-scene or mise en scene, voiceover or voice-over, freeze frame or freeze-frame, you know, whatever.

Mise en scene! Why would you hyphenate that? Stop him.

Word likes "voiceover" and "freeze-frame." Microsoft must be right, right?

Sadly, it must be hyphenated since this is a spinoff/spin-off of the bestselling/best-selling book in the market, which uses mise-en-scene.

That works, and Microsoft won't correct you.

Sadly, it must be hyphenated

You can't sneak the hyphens out and not tell anyone until it's too late?

It's a chapter title. I think people will notice.

They also capitalize Western (which some texts do), but it bugs me.

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

Western the genre, or western the adjective?
