I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

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!

I don't know if there's a sadder song in the Disney canon than "When She Loved Me" (the song about Jessie the Cowgirl's previous owner). Dag.

I'm also rewatching the movies in prep for the third, and that scene brought me close to tears, unexpectedly. Not only because, you know, she's a fucking toy, but because I found her character really irritating before then. They pulled the old "Ha, we will make you care about a character you don't even like, mwahahaha!" trick.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

One of the best movie reviews I've ever read...and it's about Marmaduke , for fuck's sake!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Excellent, Joe. I think this is my favorite part.

Nobody tells Marmaduke what to do. That's my kinda dog.

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

I bookmarked it to read later. Love the Buffy ref in the comments and HERE!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

What the io9 review fails to mention is that Marmaduke is also a 2-hour long episode of The OC, if The OC were about dogs.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

From the io9 review:

the moviegoer never sees Marmaduke in a pimp hat.

Well, fuck that, then. If they can't give me a great dane in a pimp hat, I have no use for the movie.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I bet you can have a dalmatian in a pimp hat any time you want!

...and of course I just got the Mr. Trick quote at the top of the page. Magic!

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

Huh.

The magic is over: Harry Potter has finished production

Two days ago, director David Yates shouted "cut!" after the very last shot of the very last Harry Potter film — and one of the most profitable, beloved film series in Hollywood history has officially wrapped.

According to Warwick Davis — who played Professor Flitwick in the saga based on J.K. Rowling's novels — this weekend marked the last time that, barring any unforeseen future cash-grabs, cameras would roll on a Harry Potter film.

eta:

The world at large will be winding up to a more grandiose farewell to Harry, Hermione, Ron, and the whole gang over the next 13 months, between the Nov. 19, 2010 release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and the July 15, 2011 release of Deathly Hallows, Part 2.
