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.

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

See what happens when you don't watch "Pushing Daisies?" Lee Pace has to go and make movies like this.

A quote for the ages.

Trust my rage

We all went to the How to Train Your Dragon today. I was not excited about the 3D because the idea of keeping the glasses on Ellie was not fun. They actually did fall off many times until she figured out how to sort of hold them on. But that aside, the movie was a lot of fun.

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

I'm eager to see How To Train Your Dragon as it's done by Chris Sanders who did Lilo and Stitch.

I am not, however, keen on all of the movies being 3-D now.

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

Oh, really? Now I am more interested. It's been getting really good reviews.

Yeah, it's really annoying.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Iron Man 2 isn't 3D, though, right?

RIGHT?!?

YET.

And they just raised the 3D prices! What the fuck!

You know, I actually thought the 3D looked pretty cool. All the scenes of the flying dragons and such were pretty cool in 3D. I think it's annoying, though, to have to wear special glasses to see a movie.

Because books.

S. took Sara and they saw 2D, since the closest theater doesn't have 3D. He wasn't disappointed in it. I loved Coraline in 3D, though.

I enjoyed it! It wasn't groundbreaking or amazing or anything, but it was well done and entertaining.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

This is funny: Battlefield Earth screenwriter apologises

Then I got another batch of notes. I thought it was a joke. They changed the entire tone. I knew these notes would kill the movie. The notes wanted me to lose key scenes, add ridiculous scenes, take out some of the key characters. I asked Mike where they came from. He said, "From us." But when I pressed him, he said, "From John [Travolta]'s camp, but we agree with them."

I refused to incorporate the notes into the script and was fired.
