![]() and also the illusionist ![]() not bad! both of them. not mind-blowing but competent, each in their own way. |
PAUL GIAMATTI needs to stop playing a variation of the same character in every movie.

I normally don't watch movies on tv, but Easy Rider was on, and I love that movie. "We blew it," has to be one of the best lines ever.
Classic. |
easy rider
edit: i only just noticed you jsut said that. i saw it on tv as well. now i'm watching platoon |

Good god I love Platoon. |
Quite nice. Penelope Cruz must have had fun doing this one. |

just finished alphaville. pretty good. by far my favorite goddard film, but still mighty fine. i want to marry anna karina (either AK in alphaville of band of outsiders....) |
toko, i loved that bigas luna movie-- and i like "la teta y la luna" even better, but i've lost track of the guy in recent years.
oh i can't rep you like i wanted for your greenaway post, by the way |
I saw Hot Fuzz last night. It was alright...
I'm going to watch Y Tu Mamá También tonight if I have the time. Maybe tomorrow. |
hot fuzz rules. simon pegg rules!
i saw the simpsonsmovie last night. yeah it was funny. bit of a dissappointment really. ive been looking forward to it for nearly a decade now and when i saw it it was meh, ok, it was fine..... also saw shrek the third, not a patch on the 2 previous, too much prince charming! wanker!! as you can tell. ive been bringing my kids to the pics a bit. i watched gummo the other night (minus the kids) fo the first time in along long time nd its still amazing! |
Quote:
I fucking DESPISE that horrid wankery! The single most pointless and boring movie I have ever seen. I turned it off after an hour. horrible horrible horrible. |
Easy Rider is boring as all fuck as well. I don't see why people praise it. It is dull, slow, meaningless bullshit disguised as a road trip into the heart of america. stupid fucking hippie shit.
|
American Splendor, for the second time. Still good.
|
i saw battle royale on tv yesterday, well at least the last hour of it, but i saw it on TV!!!
i loved it. |
The japanese film?
|
Quote:
that's the one. that's the reason i was surprised to see it on tv, who could broadcast it? |
Night of the Living Dead. I enjoyed it, but it was sort of goofy at times. It was also the only horror movie I've ever seen with an intelligent black guy.

One man's meat is another man's cock. :D I didn't expect to read that from you, seeing that you love art and all. Greenaway is far from pointless and boring. More like genius. |

Haven't seen La Teta y la Luna. Heard it's good though. The only other film I've seen of his is Huevos de Oro which was great. You won't believe where I watched Jamón, jamón. On MTV of all channels. They have this new thing now, where they show four films in a month at ten o'clock on Monday evenings. No ad's in between, which surprised me. I missed the first three because I never watch that tripe. I need to see more of his films for sure. |
Quote:
ah ha ha ha---mtv!!! i dont get the stuff, but i'm happy to see they are trying to improve their low-rent programming with quality stuff. about huevos de oro-- ha ha ha what a great name, works at multiple levels (eggs/testicles)-- i hadn't heard about it but i'll try to find & order it. la teta y la luna is full of crazy poetry. i won't divulge any secrets, you have to see it, really. |
and does anybody recognize this cropped still?
![]() ![]() ![]() that's right! i just finished what a movie! what magnificent shots, one after another! what a cast, and particularly what magnificent screen goddesses, jeanne moreau + monica vitti in the same frame?? oh i went nuts. as close to religious experience as a movie has been for me in a long time. UAU. i am still in shock. what work of beauty. |

Much like: ![]() ![]() |
![]() i never know what to say after something like this. i think i liked it. |
Quote:
Watched that last weekend for the first time, too, It had its premiere here. "I think i liked it" is a good review. But the last movie i watched was Transformers. Entertaining and stupid - loved it |
Quote:
I don't watch movies for art. I watch movies for entertainmnet, and that movie was the exact opposite of entertainment. |
i am told by kegmama to watch almost famous, so thats next.

Quote:
Ok. In that case, don't even bother watching the rest of his films, 'cause they only get more "horrible". |

Just got done watching the Simpson's movie. It was so ironic because it was a bootleg and right from the start of the movie Bart was writing on the chalkboard a hundred times 'I will not illegally download this movie' and something else was shown having to do with bootlegging movies in the theater but don't recall exactly. So that made it cool from the beginning.
|
transformers! and i loved it!
|
Y Tu Mamá También.
I liked it. I'm not sure how much though. The abruptness of the ending caught me off guard. On another note, I don't get what the big deal is with Gael García Bernal. He ain't so cute. Diego Luna was better. Though their kiss was perfecto. |
Die Hard 4.0 (or 'Live Free or Die Hard' as it's apparently known as in the states).
WAS COOOOOL. |
![]() (Uccellacci e uccellini) Italy 1966. Director: Pier Paolo Pasolini Cast: Totò, Ninetto Davoli, Femi Bunessi, Rossana Di Rocco, Lena Lin Solaro "A fractured fairy-tale with touches of Brecht and Buñuel [and] Chaplin" (Gino Moliterno), Pasolini's oddball follow-up to The Gospel According to St. Matthew features Italian comedy star Totò and Pasolini fixture Ninetto Davoli as father-and-son vagabonds setting out on a picaresque journey across modern Italy. Their unlikely travelling companion is a talking crow (!) who spouts Marxist dogma and recounts for them the tale of Ciccillo and Ninetto, two disciples of St. Francis who converted birds to Christianity. Intended as an hommage to the heyday of Italian neorealism, and to the Italian Communist Party and its late leader Palmiro Togliatti (who died in 1964), Hawks and Sparrows is as polemical as it is playful, abounding in philosophical, historical and political references, filled with comic moments, and offering a fantastical take on one of Pasolini's chief concerns: the contradictory pulls of Marxism and Catholicism in Italian society. A key (if sometimes underappreciated) work in the Pasolini canon, it marks the decisive break away from the director's neorealist roots and towards the stylized allegory and poetic mythmaking that began to characterize his work. "One of [Pasolini's] finest inventions ... a delightful, provocative adventure ... the only film that comes to mind which starts off with singing credits" (Jonathan Rosenbaum). B&W, 35mm, in Italian with English subtitles. 86 mins. |

Dude, WTF. Diego Luna looks like he's 12. Anyway, last night I watched The Bourne Identity and The Bourne Supremacy because I plan to see Ultimatum with my mom in about 2 hours. Identity was very good, I was surprised actually. Really the only thing I can complain about is that stupid part where he basically surfs on that dead guy's back and on the way down, manages to shoot a guy who is running up the stairs. That was retarded. At first I thought he was only going to use that guy to break his fall, and I thought, hey, that's pretty smart. But then they had to go and ruin it. Oh well. It was good nonetheless. Supremacy was just okay, I think. Right when they killed off Franka Potente's character I thought, Well this movie isn't going to be as good as the first. And it wasn't. But that wasn't the only problem. In a nutshell I think it just wasn't as suspenseful as the first. The first one had more downtime, when that tension usually starts to build up, and the second one was really lacking that. It had a great car chase though. |

You must know some very attractive looking monkeys then. On the whole though I think he's too pretty. Also, yes: Twelve. |

![]() Monkey. Now that I look up google pictures of Diego, he isn't that cute. But I still don't get the crazy over Gael. I think I liked Diego because he reminded me of Pasha from So You Think You Can Dance. |
