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.

Whereas I'm just going to cling to the hope that Tim will snap out of this, and return to making movies I like. Because I'm an optimist.

OK, I just saw an ad for yet another movie by that guy who wrote The Notebook that looked almost exactly like the one that was just out with Channing Tatum and that bug-eyed girl from Mama Mia! Just how many times did this guy get the same novel published with a different title, anyway?
Powell's Books had a link up yesterday with that guy calling Cormac McCarthy an overwrought hack. In movie terms, that's like Matthew McConaughey saying that Philip Seymour Hoffman has no range.
