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.

Hey. New board.

Don't feel bad: Nightmare made $39 million last weekend (it was #1) and has already exceeded its production budget. I expect it will make more than 9 million next weekend from people who walked into the theater to see Iron Man and said "Oh, a new Nightmare movie? Maybe I'll see that next week." and then actually will. Then HBO or somebody will snap it up to show on Halloween and a sequel to a reboot of a franchise with WAY too many sequels will, of course, be greenlit.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I just re-watched Winchester '73

I love that movie.

Speaking of Winchesters, I bit the bullet and bought the first four volumes of Adèle Blanc-Sec today. Hope I like them (and that the movie eventually gets here)!

Of course, since I was paying ridiculous amounts for shipping anyway, I also got some Astérix, the 3rd and the 4th volumes of Persepolis that I couldn't afford when last in France, and the final volume of Le Chat du rabbin, which is apparently coming out as an animated feature next month.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

hmm. I hadn't heard of Adele Blanc Sec before. It looks to be right up my street and the movie is Luc Besson! Excellent.

I hadn't heard of it either until flea (I think) mentioned it here. The first volumes appeared in the 70s, so I think, for me, it fell in the cracks between old-school favorites like Tintin and Asterix and the more recent bande-dessinées.

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

I was kinda' meh on Iron Man II. Sure, there were lots of pretty explosions, but I found it difficult to care about them.

eta: I guess it was worth my $5, though.

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

Watched three great movies today: The Station Agent, Dial M for Murder, and Double Indemnity.

The last two made an interesting double-header. The perfect murder never goes right, you guys! Stop trying!

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

Those movies are just like textbooks!
