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're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

To go upthread a bit:

I met a woman named Alia once

My great-grandmother's name was Alita; I've always wanted to find out if that was a common name in late-19th-century Chicago.

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

38 Reasons Why Iron Man is Cooler than Darth Vader

20. If you push the buttons on Iron Man's suit, you'll probably die. If you push the buttons on Darth Vader's suit, he'll probably die.

eta: Of course, they don't mention that Vader could choke Iron Man using his mind....

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm starting to understand how most people feel when I start ranting about the physics of movie time travel...

I can do physics AND horses. Plants, NSM.

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

I started reading The Losers over my lunch break, and Cougar has just as few lines in the comic as in the movie--perhaps fewer.

The movie is pretty close in tone, so far, except comic!Aisha is completely batshit crazy and seems to have a very different backstory. They've made all the men sexier. Jensen is very spot on and Chris Evans keeps floating over the artwork for me. Oscar Jaenada is the second closest casting to the comic. Roque's basic story seems the same, but he's white.

And so far, halfway through, we don't actually get to see Max. Wade is pretty different too.

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

Danny Trejo is so fucking awesome

Indeed. That was a fun interview, and I'm can't wait to see Machete. I love that trailer so damned much. Fun!
