BBEB and I are redoing a house. The best advice to remember is everything will take longer and cost about 20% more than you expect, even if you think you are being generous with the costs. But it's so worth it!
Apparently the mortgage company spent the day "working it" and everything is resolved. We close at noon on Friday! Yippee!
The only major expenses I'm expecting with this place in the forseeable future is buying appliances and fixing the AC. Everything else is cosmetic and negligible in cost.
It was good, though LOOOONG. Sheesh. It was like 3.5 hours. It's the Criterion release too, so I'm sure there are hours upon hours of bonus materials to look though, too.
I'd be interested in knowing which scenes were ADDED to the extended version- I don't believe I have that one at home. My version seemed extremely complete, except for the fact that there were some Samurai added fairly hastily in the beginning and killed without being properly developed. I tried to count in my head all seven samurai at the end of the movie and found that I could only name six. To make matters worse, the cover of my version of the DVD only had six on it.
I can usually remember the foolish one, the old and wise one, the young one, the master warrior, the poor one that fights to work, the old friend of the old and wise one, but there's one more, and he always escapes me- the good-natrued one, maybe? Is he also the old friend of the old and wise one?
They all seemed very iconic to me- the villagers and bandits as well, for that matter.
