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.

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

"Georgy Girl" is one of a handful of songs I can vividly remember my mom singing.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Oh, also I would like to point out this really nifty European Road Trip thing one of our designers built. [link]

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Synchronicity! I was just establishing my geek credentials on Monday by having an in-depth, half-serious/half-mocking/(not-beast) discussion of Half Japanese with another rock nerd.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I bet Jad Fair would do an excellent cover of Georgy Girl.

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

Apparently there's a scene in Splice where a cat is killed.

If/when someone sees it, can they tell me how graphic that scene is?

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

I'm seeing it in a couple hours, tommyrot. I'll report back.

Cool. I'm thinking of catching it in a matinee on the weekend.

Although the name Splice keeps making me think it's some soft-drink for electricians....

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

tommy, the IO9 review says that happens.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm watching "W" and it may ruin my Josh Brolin oost forever.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I'm going to the movie soon also. I'll report on graphic stuff. I'm a bit afraid of the movie because of this.
