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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I liked Inception a LOT, and am wondering where Tom Hardy has been all my life. (England, apparently.)

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

Tom Hardy is fabulous in the movie. I think he stole the show.

Because books.

We were going to go tonight! And ... now we have a pukey, feverish six-year-old. It never fails.

Oh, here's the funniest thing that happened at the movies: We're watching this preview, it looks pretty good, and then the screen changes to: "From M. Night Shyamalan," and I swear the audience as a whole went, "Oh. So much for that." There was an audible reaction.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Was that the trailer for Devil, Jesse?

Yep.

I liked Inception. But not quite as much as I expected to. To be fair, I think I reacted to Dark Knight the same way. And it may be a matter of not living up to my expectations. I don't know. It's very clever, particularly if you like heist stories. There are many handsome men in suits, which is nice. I guess... for a movie about dreams, it seemed a bit literal?

But it was a good time, and I'll give it another go and see how I feel on re-watch. And I am amused that it seems as if in Nolan's movies, love means eternally having to say you're sorry.

Oh, Jesse -- we did not get the hellevator trailer, but I've seen other people reporting the same reaction.

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

Ha, a friend of mine has a very similar story.

I think Devil looks kind of neat, plus it has Caroline Dhavernas!

I like both of those things a great deal! Also air conditioning.

Art Crawl!!!

The Tweet from Screenrush didn't say he was cast as Bilbo just that he was cast in the Hobbit. Aren't there other hobbits he could be?
