jummy go go!

I watched: Factory Girl and A Snake of June.

catched one after the other on a private tv which in the middle of the night airs semi-illegally nice movies.
kewl.

atsonicpark 11.14.2008 02:15 PM

YES! A Snake of June is one of my all time favorite films.

nicfit 11.14.2008 02:24 PM

the "look" of it is simply great, how the scenes are shot when she walks in the mall and the heavy rain shots, just great. I still feel a bit unsure about my "judgment" on the movie itself, it's full of interesting ideas and thought provoking bits but it leaves me a weird, undescribable feeling (I watched it like 3-4 times counting last night).

factory girl was nice, sienna miller is nice, I'm not sure about the actual quality of it either, I'm not an expert of the actual "events" so I won't adventure further in a comment.

hey adam, how's life?
pm me ha ha.

watched this on blu-ray disc on big hd tv whilst on shrooms last night, i couldn't understand what was going on but it looked amazing.

atsonicpark 11.15.2008 09:05 PM

Yeah fugazifan, zombi 2 and gates of hell are both amazing.

yo atsonic
you heard about world war z getting a director?

LifeDistortion 11.15.2008 09:25 PM

Anyone see Quantum of Solace yet? What's your view of it? I read two reviews of it so far and both were saying it wasn't good, at all. Is it really that bad? Even if its not as good as "Casino Royale" is it worth seeing?

atsonicpark 11.15.2008 09:28 PM

alien anal: I don't know what world war z is............ yet...

LifeDistortion: A guy I worked with saw it and said it was "alright". Of course he liked that last Indiana Jones movie... well, he said THAT was "alright" as well... so yeah. I mean, it's a James Bond movie, they're usually entertaining enough. I'd see it if I liked James Bond. Either way.

GeneticKiss 11.15.2008 09:30 PM

Someone I work with saw it (at a midnight showing when he had to work at 9 the next day-not a good move) and said it was good but not as good as Casino Royale.

Actually, have any of the Bond films been "good" in a "good movie" sense? Most of them seem to have a cheesiness factor that makes them enjoyable, but keeps them from being "good movies"...

LifeDistortion 11.15.2008 09:32 PM

That's what I say, I mean with Casino they had a lot to work with, showing Bond's start and how he sort of started out making bad choices, like falling for women he shouldn't get too close too. And those differences kind of made the movie what it was, other then the fact it was also exceptionally gritty. QOS is supposed to be quite gritty as well, and is basically a revenge movie, and I usually judge a movie based on the trailer and the trailer was great. So if the only argument is that its NOT "Casino Royale" then maybe the bad press is a bit unwarrented.

Watched Flawless tonight, with Michael Caine and Demi Moore.

It was okay. Nothing special, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

Yureru (Sway), really enjoyed this film, watched Scrap Heaven recently,not bad, very Fight Club in parts.@ sonic have you seen Tsukamoto's film Vital?.

atsonicpark 11.16.2008 08:45 AM

Yeah, I loved Vital. It's great. My favorite Tsukamoto films are Tetsuo I, Gemini (really underrated), and Tokyo Fist.. Though I love everything he's done except for nightmare detective (and the goofy Hiruko the Goblin isn't that great but it's okay). I wish I could see Haze. That's the only film of his I haven't seen -- I've even seen his short films. Phantom of Regular size is crazy! Sorry to be longwinded. Vital rules. It's a bit different than what a person would probably expect, but the atmosphere is just amazing... for some reason, Tadanobou Asano keeps getting casted in these similiarly minded, brilliant films with these really lonely atmospheres... Bright future, Last Life in the Universe, Rampo Noir, and his story in Survive Style 5+ come to mind... he's great.

atsonicpark 11.16.2008 08:45 AM

Just made a new netflix list:

me. 11.16.2008 09:08 AM

Bright Future is the next film i'm gonna watch,Last Life In The Universe is really great,even got a cameo role with Miike.Asano - will watch Sad Vacation next week,maybe. Have you read Kitano's story collection?.

atsonicpark 11.16.2008 09:11 AM

No! I'd love to, though I dunno if it's available in America. As it is, I'm currently attempting to buy his last films that hasn't been released here (and he already has ANOTHER film since then that isn't out at all except it played in the festivals and such)... I already got Takeshis and it's amazing...

I know he's written over 60 novels and he has some books of just art and such that I'd love to eventually get, but dunno if I'll ever be able to..

me. 11.16.2008 09:21 AM

Think you can get it here -
