Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

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.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why Avatar will suck and everyone will see it anyway.
I'm not knocking down anyone's doors to see it, but the argument that it will suck because Transformers 2 was effects-laden and sucked is more than a bit specious.
Does the backlash backlash have a proper backlash yet?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Harking slightly back,
Mmm, Nasir.
Ryan has done pretty well for himself as stunt coordinator, and swordsmaster for films like First Knight. Without Nasir, I very much doubt we'd have had Azeem, and truthfully Freeman and his character were what saved that movie, for me. Barely. Actually, cast anybody else in the Robin role (Kline, if you must have a Kevin. sorry, kneejerk) and it would have been a good movie.
Mantle did some features, White Hunter, Black Heart with Eastwood and Aliens 3, and lots of Brit series work. Grace and Addie did character work as they wished, although Addie in Excalibur will always overshadow his Gisburne for me. The real star of RoS though, of course, has to be Winstone. A long, steady career, studded with memorable roles.
The RoS, it always makes me smile. Plus I get bonus lovely images of Praed and Bloom in archer-fu.

I like him as Peter Parker. Spider Man 2 is about is good as you're going to get on the big screen for web-headiness.
Feh. I mean, I liked Spider-Man 1 and 2 a lot, but that was in spite of Tobey Maguire, not because of him.
Yeah, they should have picked an actor that *didn't* have organic web shooters.
See, everybody thinks Scola is so nice but that's just poking a stick into the lion's cage.
Evil Scola! Someone in NYC, can you go check to see if he's wearing leather pants?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
American actor VIGGO MORTENSEN has hit out at film stars who sign up to big budget Hollywood projects solely for the pay cheque
Well, those people won't be working in Europe anymore, what with cheques being phased out and such.

Cured? Like...smoked meats?

Cured like leather is cured! Or is that tanned? I think now I meant tanned.
I should go over there since I seem to be all word abuse-y today.
