We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Did Snyder grab one of the teenage fans off the sidewalk at a Stephenie Meyer book signing and put her in charge of the score?

The only soundtrack cliche they missed was using "For What It's Worth" for the sixties.

It was by far the stupidest soundtrack I've ever encountered. So thoughtless.

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

Ok, I haven't even SEEN the movie and that cracked my shit up, Matt!

Saw I Love You, Man this afternoon. Hey, it's funny!

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

I just saw Let the Right One In. I was very tired and sleepy, and the movie was slow, which was not a good combination. It was kinda fucked-up. But definitely not your typical vampire movie.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

There are doves, there's a kidnapping! There's a boat chase! Explosions!

As, I believe, J. Hoberman said (paraphrasing), when John Woo really cuts loose, he risks being called John Woo Woo.

The last Nic Cage movies I had an interest in (and the last one I saw) was ADAPTATION. Which was the last time I saw old-school Nic Cage in a movie, pretty much.

Good, it's on Emmett's must-see list. Though it must be said that he came to his Apatow-bro-comedy preference honestly by first watching all of Freaks and Geeks, then Undeclared.

Hey. New board.

I enjoyed I Love You, Man as well. It's funny that Apatow apparently had absolutely nothing to do with it, though.

It's within the Apatow Penumbra though just by the pairing of Segal and Rudd.

And the director worked on Undeclared.
