But wait, in the case of A Bug's Life it's the peasants who wind up doing the ass-kicking.
The peasants end up kicking ass in SS
Not as much as the Samurai but that's to be expected
The Seven Samurai is my favorite movie of all time
Everytime it's on TV I tell myself, "Let me just watch this next part because it's awesome"
But I end up watching the whole thing because it's all awesome parts
When it was first brought up I was like "Oh wow, A Bug's Life really is a lot like Seven Samurai" but I never thought about Galaxy Quest (until I saw the comment here and then read the Wiki article).
Is the SS a western?
I seriously think it was, or something sounded like it and was a western.
Fuck.
Okay SEVEN SAMURAI 101:
Directed by Akira Kurosawa in the 1950s.
It is one of the most influential films of all time.
It has inspired many adaptations over the decades, not least of which is The Magnificent Seven, a western cowboy movie based upon the original work.
The original movie is about a village that is being raided by bandits repeatedly so they hire seven hungry samurai who are willing to fight for nothing but three meals a day.
In the end the samurai help to defeat the bandits and the village is saved but now that their job is done the remaining samurai have gained nothing.
Everybody should know who Akira Kurosawa was.
Without him we'd never have Star Wars.
We wouldn't have any of the greatest westerns.
The man influenced media on an epic scale while the rest of his country was barely recovering from getting double-nuked and firebombed.
You are a bad person if you don't know this man.
edit: Westerns as in the movies not the hotels you dick

without kurosawa, comfort inns and holiday inns would have no one to compete with
Man, the Criterion Collection for Seven Samurai is like sex on a dvd. God, I wish all my fave movies were given the Criterion Collection treatment. She's the Man in a 5 disc collection full of extras and cast interviews.

Unfortunately Criterion Collection dvds actually cost MORE than sex.
It was for the best though. Disney didn't absorb Pixar so much as Pixar now has control over Disney's entire animation department, what with John Lasseter being put in charge.

An adaptation of The Seven Samurai
With Jedi
Set after Revenge of the Sith
Animated like Clone Wars
This would be the most perfect thing

It's not the brits, it's the homogays.
Get on the ground anyways.
Because I hate theatres.
disney doesn't exercise creative control over them and they damn well know already that disney needs them and not the other way around
Just send everybody reeling.
this would be even better if the brutal horror shit turned out to be the last fifteen minutes of Wall E
Hahaha, yeah. All cutely and curiously angling his eyes as he pulls the entrails from a screaming mother of three.
