the local video store was having a sale on used vhs and dvds so i bought el topo and holy mountain on dvd each for about 8$

[atsonicpark]

both of those films are too good for existence

Night at the Museum.

I'd seen it twice before so I was falling asleep this time.

It's good, but there's only so many times I can watch a movie like that.

Nobody Lives Forever. Another damned sexy old movie.

Anybody watch the same movie over and over obsessively? At what point do you give it up? I'm having trouble getting over my obsession with certain movies--is this natural or should I worry that I'll slip into a schizophrenic state where I can no longer separate my reality from movie fantasy?

[atsonicpark]

To me, that's only happened with dead zone, el topo, tetsuo, blow out, taxi driver... Those 4 movies I watched over and over again, by myself and with friends for a good year. I just didn't want to leave that atmosphere. So, it's normal.

[gmku]

I guess that's the beauty of movies. You can live in them, in a sense. Much like looking at good art or listening to good music, you can appreciate new things in each experience as well as relive the wonder of the first encounter.

God, I do blather.

I could live for days on North by Northwest, for example. As well as Casino Royale. I seem to get sucked into the thrillers.

My college roommate used to watch UNNECESARY ROUGHNESS (with scott bakula and Sinbad) over and over and over again. He muist have watched it about 12 times ina 5 day period.

Wow. Well, I have to admit, I could probably recite the scripts to those two movies I mentioned above.

I've been watching Casino Royale since about 3 this afternoon. It's on Showtime and I have the "start over" feature. I keep getting interupted or distracted so I've restarted it about 4 times now.

I thought it was excellent. It was realistic, disturbing and yet had a very good use of social commentary as well as sort of pointed injokes at fans of so-called "torture-porn." Stylistically, it's great. Wide shots, stationary cameras, no music create a realistic feel... then all the sudden the "fourth wall" is broken for a moment. (you'll see).

And all the acting was great (no surprises there, great cast). See it.

Like I said before, the new version should be avoided at all costs. The cast in the original nail it.
Haneke's films are all good in my opinion. Benny's Video is another must see.

I watched this again.

El Topo.

I don't know what to rate it, I'd really need to give it a few more watchings.
