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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I loved Talk to Her. I didn't really see the big deal about Volver, which didn't seem to go anywhere. Talk to Her was much more narratively interesting.

The best of all Almodovar movies has to be Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown. Carmen Maura! The Mambo Taxi! The crazy wife hijacking a motorcycle! The gazpacho! Antonio Banderas before he was famous in America! (It is one of my favorite movies of all time. Can you tell?)

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Granny O’Grimm.
OMG, that was amazing. I hope it gets an Oscar nod. It's on the shortlist of 10 films.

Because books.
Granny O'Grimm was excellent!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
That's a rather personal question.
Heh. I considered making that exact post....

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
On the AV Club lists: like too many movie lists, it's remarkably shy on accessible comedies, though The 40-Year-Old Virgin made one person's list.
Did you read the comments? There's a very long discussion about the merits of Talledega Nights vs. Anchor Man as the comedy of the decade.

Our wings are not tired.
Talk to Her might have been narratively interesting, but the main character is presented as sympathetic and I just can't accept that. At all.
My favorite PA movie will always be Women on the Verge.
