Ghsot Dog rules! And I'm NOT a huge Jarmusch fan.

atsonicpark 12.01.2009 10:13 PM

ghost dog is good, Jarmusch is mediocre.

Haven't seen Ghost Dog (although I plan too), but, although his work is definitely mixed, I LOVE Jarmusch sometimes. Down By Law is just amazing! Dead Man is pretty class too, if it catches you at the right time. Stranger Than Paradise is good. Beyond that, haven't seen anything that I was that impressed by...

Dead Man is by far Jarmusch's best film.
Mediocre? Ha! That's a joke.

TheFoxBen 12.02.2009 08:36 AM

Jarmusch isn't mediocre at all... He's actually one of my favorite directors, Mystery Train is the best if you want my opinion.

atsonicpark 12.02.2009 11:07 AM

He's not that great to me, at all. Dead Man and Mystery Train are both pretty good. Like I said, I like Ghost Dog, that might be his best. I like the atmosphere and the music in Dead Man, and the first story in Mystery Train is amazing though the rest kinda fall flat. Coffee and Cigarettes is probably one of the worst films I've ever seen in my life. Found Down by Law pretty boring. Everything else is pretty bland to mediocore. I just haven't seen anything by him I'd call great (and I've seen just about everything) THOUGH I am really excited to see The Limits of Control, I think that actually looks amazing! Don't understand the hype with that guy, it's like Wes Anderson... can't say I really enjoy any of his films that much, but he's alright.

i love dead man, i think stranger than paradise and night on earth are good, i don't think down by law is all that good.

fugazifan 12.02.2009 04:55 PM

i think he is way better than wes anderson. while i enjoy andersons films they really address a very specific audiance that seem to find him god or something. jarmusch's films are way more artistic in my opinion and most of them are very beautiful and poetic yet with a great sense of humor.
dead man
stranger than paradise
down by law
night on earth

all amazing. even limits of control was pretty cool. he might be the only director that ive seen all of his full length films

Jarmusch isn't as appreciated in America as he is here in Europe.
That says something about the way he makes films. No offence, atsonicpark.

Bad Lieutenant: Port Of Call New Orleans - 6/10

noisereductions 12.02.2009 09:12 PM

I'm not really sure how Jarmusch and Anderson relate, but film for film I like Anderson better. Jarmusch is "cool" but has a lot of boring shit too. However, Ghost Dog amazing. I love it.

gmku 12.02.2009 09:27 PM

Take the Money and Run. That Woody! He cracks me up every time.

They relate because they're both overrated.

!@#$%! 12.03.2009 12:56 AM

youve never seen DOWN BY LAW? it's awesome. i hate permanent vacation, i really like STRANGER THAN PARADISE, i love DEAD MAN, and NIGHT ON EARTH is a bit 90's-trendy but still delicious.

don't shit on your colleagues. shit on... james fucking cameron-- or worse-- that fuck who did "singles"-- blechhhh....

where the wild things are

Puppets were awesome. Really liked the score. Didn't realise it was all/mostly filmed in Oz! This made it even better(in a familiar way).
