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’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

eta: Also, holy shit! Jeremy Sumpter is on FNL? That's exactly the last nudge I needed to get me over my don't-like-football-stories block and dig into the DVDs Perkins lent me so tragically long ago.

?? Did I lend someone else my FNL Season 1 DVDs, then?

I am PSYCHED for Iron Man. Whoo!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I... don't know? Maybe S1 are yours and S2 are hers?

I am ashamed of my hideous unwatched backlog. Anyhow, I know we have S1 and possibly S2 at our place, not yet watched (though now rocketing to the top of the list), and definitely belonging to someone else.

I have some Supernatural I need to give back to one or both of you, too. Loved S1 but kind of skeered of plunging forward and getting all emotionally invested, since my LJ flist has been rampant with sore feelings and disappointment and ire at the most recent season.

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

The last few episodes of the season have been emotionally taxing the good-pain way.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I Netflixed "High and Low"...and found myself falling asleep during it. Guess it wasn't for me.

(I seem to be an outlier here, as I also saw "The Lady Eve", which lots of people here love, and found it kind of watch-from-the-hall. Oh,well.)

Eh, I think they're being Wrong On the Internet, but that's me. (I think 5 has been their best season since 2.)

(Not that the show doesn't still have Issues, but I think S5 has on the whole been better WRT to them than S3 or S4, and has been narratively stronger. Take this as you will, for I loved AtS S4 the best.)

I hope this Captain America rumour is wrong.

I'm trying to imagine him playing against RDJ's Iron Man, and I totally don't see it.

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

As protest against the Burton Alice, I've gotten the late sixties BBC production (all of $9.99 at Amoeba).

Peter Sellers, Flora Robson, Michael Crawford, Peter Cook, Dudley Moore...

The Lady Eve is one of my least favorite screwballs. Of course, I also find Bringing Up Baby terribly annoying.

I regret to inform you that you are all freaky alien people whose brains are filled with wrongness.
