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.
Do folks know there's gonna be an American version of Let the Right One In, directed by the guy who did Cloverfield? (It's called Let Me In.)
It's not so much a remake of the original movie as a new version of the book.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Will it still be boring?

I preferred The Birdcage to La Cage Aux Folles.
This site has a pretty good list:

Your question is based on a false premise.

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

I was gonna say. Pelham 1-2-3? Really?
To answer my own question, original Casino Royale was a mess.

Wikipedia has a (possibly) comprehensive list of all film remakes split into 2 sections:

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Hitchcock's remake of The Man Who Knew Too Much is supposed to be better than his original, right? I've only seen the remake.

Oh, I'd love that Fiona if it's readily available.
I don't know about readily available, but I have a text file which I can email you. Same email address as in 2006...?
At least it's exclusive new information, as I'd be surprised if anyone other than me ever has used it yet.
