Almost all of Aki Kaurismaki's films are exactly the same, with like two films that serve as major deviations. In fact, a lot of them feel like remakes of each other. But the good thing is, if you like once, you like em all. Really, Ariel is probably the best, though I think Lights in the Dusk deserves special mention. They all kinda blend together in my mind, honestly. All shot the same, edited the same, paced the same, lit the same, filmed the same, the same actors sometimes; othertimes, the same characters. It's odd, it's like his a lot of his films serve as weird parallel versions of each other.
Also, more smoking in his films than any I can think of. |
![]() heavy metal parking lot - well, the actual feature is only 15 minutes long, actually, so 10/10 ![]() hardcore - this dvd as a whole gets 4/10. Just not much to it. FINGERED is brilliant, though, and actually gave me a boner. ![]() horrors of malformed men - uhh.../10 ![]() sins of the fleshapoids - 6/10 One of the weirdest films ever. |
Deer Hunter is my favorite film of all time. It makes me cry.
|
I watched An Education. It sucked.
|
The Rambo movies are worthless. Not even entertaining. I'd take Hudson Hawk over that shit. Actually, I'd take STOP! OR MY MOM WILL SHOOT!..

I was so pissed when Fingered wouldn't work for me. It would always skip around, and freeze up any DVD player i put it in. I had a jinxed copy, just like a guy in an Amazon review I had read. I popped it in a few months ago (after nearly 2 years of owning it), and Fingered suddenly worked! I really like this collection though. Kern's the man. |
I didn't see much to it, except some pretty girls, and annoying Foetus music. Kern is pretty talentless. I tried to apreciate it from many different angles, but I just couldn't... Fingered is the only thing that really stood out to me. I was bored silly by most of the shorts.

![]() royal tenenbaums - 3/10 UGH. This film is TERRIBLE. Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller... both of these egomaniacs have never been in a good movie (usually, the movies are ruined by their very presence, since they are obnoxious and unfunny as humanly possible -- and it's also true in real life, apparently, especially of Stiller), and this continues that wonderful streak. You know you're in trouble when the first 16 minutes of the film is presented in narration, constantly cutting back and forth between uninteresting characters being presented in uninteresting scenarios. Seriously, has there ever been another movie with more unlikeable characters? This movie is a failure, through and through -- it's presented as a comedy, but it's not funny in any way. It's pretty much impossible to appreciate from any angle, and I really tried to, but it made me realize that any movie that is presented in a mainstream context that's the least bit "quirky" or "different" is automatically praised, when there are a thousand fucking independant films released a year no one gives a shit about because they don't have Ben Stiller in them. WORTHLESS SHIT. on the other hand... ![]() searching for the wrong eyed jesus - 8/10 |
u so crazy
|
![]() girlie movie about relationships, but, hell i cant help loving it because it Korean!(==>korean grrlz) |

![]() chelsea girls - 10/10 |
![]() I want 3 things after watching this. 1. To go to a Gathering of the Juggalos 2. A life size Riddlebox, with spring loaded rocket head (you'll have to see it to believe it) 3. Some hot Juggalette neden |
![]() 10/10 |
![]() chaser - 7/10 ![]() the eel - 7/10 |
paranoid park - 8/10
I rewatched this with my girlfriend and I really honestly like it a lot. It may be simplistic and a bit cliche.. but the story is told so well and some parts were very beautifully done. My favourite movie from a director who's actually really average. |
I agree that Gus Van Sant is average, but he is consistent. I think he has made a ton of honest-to-god good films (let's forget Psycho). And all his films have one or two moments that are actually really brilliant. He has yet to make a great film, though My Own Private Idaho, Drugstore Cowboy, and Mala Noche came close. I think Elephant and Last Days and Gerry are really important, interesting pieces of mainstream cinema. In a lot of ways, he reminds me of a guy who really really wants to be Jon Jost, but is too afraid of his mainstream credibility being damaged so he never goes all the way. I'd rather watch Bed You Sleep In or Bell Diamond.
Anyway, Paranoid Park actually is good. Gus creates a good atmosphere. In a lot of ways, he reminds me of what Larry Clark often aspires to do, but Larry Clark is an idiot piece of shit. |
i like larry clark's 'Bully' better than most Van Sant films I've seen. [drug cow, par park, milk, elephant, cowgirls, forrester, good will, and what 'last days' i could stand].
i would probably like idaho or to die for though. r they good? |
I think Bully is his only good film.
To Die For is good, like a weak John Dahl film. My Own Private Idaho actually is really really good, so good that The Criterion Monopoly (C) felt the need to charge $50 for it! But, um, yeah, even for a KEANUA FUCKING REEVES movie, it's good. |
do you know of anywhere i could d/l bell diamond and bed you sleep in? can't find torrents.
|
I put Bell Diamond on cinemageddon, and bed you sleep in is on there. Bed You Sleep In, I've seen on torrent sites before, not with many seeders though.
Bed.. is on netflix, if you have it.. to watch for free. Your best choice is to join www.surrealmoviez.info ... not torrents, but rapidshare links ... granted, rapidshare doesn't always work, but you can use one of those premium link generators like leechdl.com or type in "black acid pro", that's easily the best one.. paste the links in, download, and it's like having a premium account. but if you can karagara or cinemageddon accounts, that's a good choice. |
![]() 10/10 |
I think you forgot the 0 after the second 10...
|
I think he forgot the decimal point before the first 10
|
Ohhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!
|
I can't believe there are people out there who didn't like Planet Terror. It's a brilliant spoof of the Grindhouse movies of the 70s. It's an absolute joy to watch.
|
spoofs suck
especially spoofs of things that already sucked ass spoofs only work when they are spoofing "serious" and "intellectual" things |
Planet Terror sucks. Death Proof is the worst film ever made.
![]() ![]() ![]() la vie nouvelle - one for the whole family/10 |
|
death proof lol
kurt russel was in escape from la how could he ever go near that tarantino travesty? i mean i know it was for money but still |
First the cinepseuds of the board attacked James Cameron, now they're attacking Tarantino and Rodriguez. They seem more concerned with pretentious, subtitled, art house shite overblown with subtext and montage than entertainment. They must lead miserable lives.
|
I didn't know a movie, a movie itself, or a "shite", in this case, could be pretentious. Also, I doubt you know what "pretentious" means. Anywho, I don't watch a movie for its "subtext", I watch it for enhancing my life in some way, and that includes "entertaining me". Cameron hasn't made a good movie in nearly 20 years, Tarantino is a ripoff artist, Rodriguez hasn't made ANYTHING good, that's just how it is. Both those dudes are hacks. See, I love trashy, shitty b-movies that are actually unique and entertaining. I love the following:
Actium Maximus: War of the Alien Dinosaurs All the Colors of the Dark Angel Dust... Baby Blood (aka the Evil Within) Back Against the Wall Baconhead Beaver and Buttface Beyond the Limits Black Roses Bloodmoon Bloody Wednesday Body Melt Boneyard Breaking Point Bride of Frank Bullets Over Summer Burning Moon The Cat Chaos in Outerspace Cop Corndog Man Crazy Family Crazy Lips (also see: Gore From Outer Space) Dandy Dust Dark Night of the Soul Deadly Prey Deadtime Stories Dear Pillow Death Bed: Bed that Eats Death Drug Death Powder The Demon Der Todesking Dr. Lamb Dr. Tarr's Torture Dungeon Duck! The Carbine High Massacre Fallen Angels Fame Whore Family Portraits: Trilogy of America Family Viewing Fatty Drives the Bus Freak Orlando Funky Forest Galaxy Invader Geek Maggot Bingo The Glamorous Life of Sachiko Hanai Goodnight, God Bless Hausu Hi, Mom!

Monsturd Mute Witness Mutilation Man Mysterious Skin Neon Maniacs Nightmare Weekend Night Train to Terror (!!!!!!!!!!!!) Once and Future Queen Orgy of the Dead Outside Out Pastoral: To Die In Country Pinnochio 964 Pistol Opera Premutos: Lord of the Living Dead Private Parts (not the Howard Stern film) Reflections of Evil Relentless Rock-a-Die Baby Rock'n'Roll Nightmare The Room Samurai Cop Sante Fe Scumrock Shaye and Kiki: Fun Bubble Shopping for Fangs Short Time Shredder Orpheus SICK Sins of the Fleshapoids Slime City Small White House Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-o-Rama Spaceman Special Needs Splatter: Naked Blood Spookies Story of a Junkie Strange Behaviour Student Bodies Stuff Stephanie in the Incinerator Superstarlet A.D. Superstition Terminal USA Thou Shalt Not Kill... Except Totally Fucked Up Touch Me in the Morning Townies Unmasked Part 25 Used Cars Viewer Discretion Advised White of the Eye Worst Horror Movie Ever Made Zardoz Zero Hardly arthouse shite. I don't get behind any one film genre or style. I like films that are good, to me. People can only like what they've been exposed to, and it's not my fault if you don't seek out any movies beyond the conventional, mainstream garbage, you're the one missing out -- not me. But don't attack others because they have tastes that are a bit more obscure than yours. I don't like films just because they're obscure, and I can appreciate a good mainstream film (Mean Girls for example), but Tarantino and that other guy are just fucking jokes. |
That's a shite list. Please don't ever invite me round to your dive to watch a movie.
