Tom Petty and the Hearbreakers: Running Down a Dream.

not a fan, though of course I like his songs when on the radio.

but this is a very good music doc.

Swiss Army Man...so weird.

Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens

7/10.

The human centipede 1 & 2. Surprisingly good.

I want to see this, but I'm pretty sure I'll be disappointed by it like I was disappointed by Synecdoche, New York and Where The Wild Things Are and other cool-weird in theory, boring-weird in execution films.

I say do it anyway.

children of men. it was better in my memory but not bad.

OJ Made in America ( im more convinced he didn't kill her but knows exactly what happened because he was there) (this is also essentially a must watch documentary of the history of Los Angeles, seriously its almost like half the film is about OJ the other have contextualizing using the history of Los Angeles)
also Fright Night (i dont know why)

Man in the Iron Mask (a movie so gay i don't even think Pride parades want to be associated with it)

Booty Call which is perfect time capsule of 1990s humor

and much to my delight last night Up in Smoke which was as funny as ever

Once upon a time in Mexico.

Wicked title sequence and special fx!

Want to go see Star Trek Beyond like right now. Got a pretty wicked heat wave going on and I want to just SIT in a cool place and be passively entertained.

Ms Ild and I will see that tomorrow! Also I HAVE to see the new Absolutely Fabulous as well

i actually really liked this flick

Watched this last night, really great. Draws from Hitchcock, Polanski, and Lynch.

Latest Ghostbusters. 6 out of 10.

SCREWBALLS (1983)

A touching film concerning a group of high school guys trying to bang Purity Busch, some stuck up bitch who won't put out.

SCREWBALLS II (1985) (also released as LOOSE SCREWS)

In this one, they try to fuck the French teacher.

I can't say which is better. That's like asking which Picasso painting is best.


RECRUITS (1986)

Some fuck-ups become traffic cops. Hilarity ensues. POLICE ACADEMY, made two years earlier, is obviously a rip-off.

I need more of these types of films, preferably from the 80s. Any recommendations?

Joysticks

Moving Violations.

The Human Centipede 3 - 365 out of 10

Catch Me Daddy - Mentally disturbed out of 10

two Woody films:

Vicky Christina Barcelona - 9/10 ---- Scarlett Johansson and her characters are attractive but the type of woman you'll have a cool bro/dude "whats up" conversation with a little connection then, go about yr business because you felt she was a little shallow. i drooled over her in Ghost World but then after that i couldn't figure out who i had a crush on more. her or Chloe Sevigny. Sevigny in Kids racked my mind up a little more i think. then she got on her knees in the Brown Bunny. i can get that anywhere.... anyway.

and

Shadows and Fog - 8/10

loved both. plan on watching Manhattan next though i think I've seen it years ago. haven't seen a Woody film i didn't like but most of those have been the good ones on Starz, HBO, and Showtime.

I like the way you're thinking. I remember watching Screwballs at some point.

I'm down for recommendations in this general area too. There are a lot of "classics" that were overshadowed by Porky's and others. Awful films, all, but fun enough to kill a weekend.

The battery - One of the best zombi films of recent times. Romero out of 10.

Mad max 4 - kill me out of 10

Wyrmwood - like a cross between the battery and mad max. Pitchfork prick out of 10.3

I'm re-watching Twin Peaks on Netflix. :D

for several years i hardly watched movies. didn't hold my attention span. but lately there are no tv shows i want to watch, so i'm going over old movies. most recent were 2010: the year we make contact, and all the predator and alien movies.

The Terminator.

Fucking shit this film is so brilliant. Its like I have to watch every time it comes on... no matter how many times I see it, I always feel the same way if not better about it. Pure brilliance at every single level.

Zack and Miri Make A Porno

I thought people said this was kind of good? It kind of sucked. I laughed at only two parts but that's about it. Kenny Hotz was in it though, but only for a second.

We caught Absolutely Fabulous today. Not bad, the same old group (all of the characters from the teevee show) in a loosely contrived plot that just didn't matter at all. Good stuff.

I did this about four months ago. still good still excited for it's return.

on my Woody Allen fickle fling. it wont last. too many movies. and I don't have the time and lose interest.

It was pretty good. Looked a LOT like Man of Steel. Like... a LOT.
Made me want to see Man of Steel. Made me want to see Superman doing stuff instead of Superman-lite (with a hammer).

But it was enjoyable. I don't like Asgard. It looks dumb. But the other space stuff was pretty dope. And seeing an absolutely unrecognizable 9th Doctoe playing the villain was... ok.

Ah. Superman.

Ps: what the fuck happened to Natalie Portman's face?!

in brugges..

love dark humor.

90ties nostalgia...
watched it after a long time. still great.

 

 

 

I saw Weiner Dog last night, laughed out loud quite a few times, which is obviously good.

Speaking of 90s nostalgia I'm going to a screenin of this on Monday night with a specially recorded introduction by Ian Svenonius

Have you seen Seven Psychopaths? Same director. Saw it quite a while ago now, but I seem to remember it being quite good, with a lot of different plot elements. Sort of a mystical quality to it... There's a vigilante character, a folk tale legend, a vision quest, a poodle loving gangster. Think Pulp Fiction meets Big Fish. Only not, y'know, not terrible like Big Fish.

Possibly just as good film, though In Bruges is one of my personal favorite movies.

This movie is so good, if you can, watch it knowing as little about it as possible.

^cool. i'll keep that in mind.

Manhattan - 2/10. gross pedo Woody Allen shit. he goes from excellent to " I don't know about this pervert jew dude".

Stardust Memories - 1/10. lame boring indulgent rip off from an Italian director. self important boring crap that should have been scraped.

A Midsummer's Night Sex Comedy - 8/10. nice relaxing flick. seen it before as a kid but, it was nice to re-view it.

Hanna and Her Sisters - 10/10. best thing from Allen I've seen so far. good comedy with classic neurotic antics from him and everyone..... Michael Caine is always great and I love Dianne Wiest's character.

Woodstock: the directors cut - 8/10. some good performances along with boring blues jam junk that shouldn't have been shown. the atmosphere of the time is captured to perfection.

now perversely I feel like watching Gimme Shelter and reading about the Manson Family.

Wow. You like Woody but you don't like Manhatten? It's, like, the Woody Allen film. That or maybe Annie Hall.

Annie Hall's probably better. But I don't remember being perved out by Manhatten. I think of it as one of those definitive 20th century flicks. An absolute classic, like Citizen Kane and The Godfather and Apocalypse Now and American Graffiti.

the whole younger than 18 girlfriend bugged me. I couldn't get into it. straight up pedophilia. a man that age should not be attracted to girls that age. you should be attracted to mature women. totally turned me off from the whole film.

I still love Woody movies but, that shit is questionable.

That happened at the end though, right?
It's been many years since I last watched Manhatten. Think I'm mixing it up a bit with Annie Hall in my head.

You do know that dude married his stepdaughter though, right?

yes. im aware of this and others things too.

Sausage Party, and I loved it. Is my humor immature? Maybe, but don't care. It had me rolling.
