And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

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.

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

Pshaw. You think Conan is good? It pales before the awesomeosityness that is Krull.

I love Krull ! I have it on my DVR for a rewatch at some point. It has been there for a while. But I will watch it!

Does Conan have HORSES THAT RUN SO FAST THEY MAKE FIRE???

No. No, it does not. It also does not have a sweet bladed boomerang, a moving castle, a cyclops, and a host of other awesome things.

No, Conan has kick-ass female warriors, orgies, religious debates, and a big-assed sword.

kick-ass female warriors

Sandahl was pretty kick-ass, I will give you that.

orgies

There were orgies? There was the hilarious sex scene with the Witch.

religious debates

There was no debating! Maybe I slept through that part.

big-assed sword

I've seen bigger.

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

Conan's good but Red Sonja is awesome!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I wish that were true. But I am so not a fan of the 'gitte.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I tried to see Iron Man II.

The film broke...3 times! I gave up and took the refund and free pass. They have a digital print that they will start showing this weekend. I'll try and see that.

I saw OSS 117: Lost in Rio last night. It's sort of a French Austin Powers, but not so over the top. It could have been spoofier, but the 60s outfits were fab. I had no idea (and was naturally dismayed to learn) that it was a sequel. Of course, I immediately put OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies at the top of my Netflix queue.

In better completist news, it turns out that the European bookstore near me had the missing volume of the Adèle Blanc-Sec series, so I can finally read the next few I ordered.

Also, I'm so excited for Micmacs. It looks just like Délicatessen.
