Seven Samurai or The Magnificent Seven

[The Firecracker]

There was a lead bandit in Seven Samurai? I don't recall seeing him.

He's the dude with thre eye patch.

The role isn't as beefy as Wallach's.

[The Peacemaker]

He's the dude with thre eye patch.

Oh yeah, the guy Mifune killed at the end.

Sure was.

the acting from Charles Bronson

Chalres Bronson doesn't act his eyes speak for him.

[Jill]

Bronson's charakter is really sympathetic and lovable. In Seven Samurai, the woodcutter charakter is too really so deep and humanist... and cute.

Poor Bernardo. I always cry for him.

[Sonny]

and cute.

That right there makes him the best...

I cringe every time I read threads that compare one film against another.
Each of these films have their attributes, of course, but it is just a matter of personal
preference as to which is "better". It's analogous to asking "which color is
preferred, blue or green?"... and trying to explain why.

Blue.   




















Sorry, I can be obnoxious at times.   

[geoman-1]

Well, you could have been really obnoxious and said yellow.

[The Peacemaker]

Damn! Didn't think of that one!

I'm sorry to dissapoint you geo! I wasn't trying to compare them, I was just asking which one do you prefer.

"Whats my name?"
"Bernardo, Bernado!!"
"Your damn right..."


god i love that scene

[Jill]

  Poor fellow. Why should he die? And that annoying kid survived... 

And Britt. He's so cool and so professional.  (Of course. He is James Coburn.) His death is also sad...

In middle of watching Seven Samurai now for the first time. It's difficult to get through, a it's a bunch of people sitting around, with sad faces and crying and crying and crying. I have no experience with Japanese culture (or more precisely, the Samurai movie culture -- the only previous samurai movie I have seen is Yojimbo); I still have about 20 minutes left in the movie, but there's no doubt whatsoever that I enjoyed The Mag 7 far more. How can you spend more than 200 minutes watching people crying?

Also, Eli Wallach's awesomeness is a big part of The Mag 7; in Seven Samurai , the bandits are just a bunch of nameless faceless people.

and btw, the subtitles of Seven Samurai make me laugh, they use all sorts of English slang. Like when the samurai bangs the girl, her father moans that she is now "damaged goods"; there's another scene where someone says "you hit the nail on the head"
