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.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I have a question about the quick edit formatting. If I type "s" at the beginning of a line, I get the white font. Can I use it in the middle of a sentence, discussing spoilers? Because every time I try that, it doesn't work and then I end up running back to edit before I spoil someone. Which is why I use the html formatting--which seems to screw things up for others. What am I doing wrong?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

You can use it in the middle of a sentence, but it still has to be the first character on a line.

So if I type it out like this it will appear in white font in the middle of a sentence?

Just got back from Broken Embraces.

Great acting, and often pretty to look at, but I'm not sure I get the point. It did make me want to rewatch Women on the Verge though.

Broken Embraces

Agreed. It wasn't a bad film, just kind of meh. I was disappointed.

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

10 Vampire Movie Fails

I've never heard of Gayracula...

This one doesn't need much explanation. It's about a guy named Count Gaylord who stalks the streets of L.A. for the hunkiest victims to ever succumb to lust, as well as his enemy, the Marquis de Suede (okay, I'll admit that's an awesome name). Oh, and it's a gay porn, not B-roll of Tom Cruise as Lestat.

eta: But who included porn films in best/worst lists of genre films? I mean, people don't generally include Flesh Gordon in lists of bad scifi films, do they?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I liked Broken Embraces. I'm not sure what it says about Woman on the Verge but I wanted to spend time with those characters.
