i love the pace of solaris-- it's absolutely delicious. if it was faster it would kill the haunting mood and it would become a star trek episode. i don't know what sodherberg did with his remake, probably something like that, which is why i haven't seen it-- plus the gumption of redoing tarkovsky, ha ha, sorry sodherberg but you're no tarkovsky. anyway, you blasphemers |

Solaris is great.
I actually was more engrossed in the first hour than the later parts!

I liked it....some good footage of Monk and his band on tour. The music was obviously great too.

I've seen that remake and, in all sincerity, it really isn't bad. I actually quite admire Soderbergh for doing it (in much the same way that I do Van Sant for his version of Psycho). The easy option would be to simply stick the originals on the shelf marked 'Classic - DO NOT TOUCH!'. I don't for a minute think either Soderbergh or Van Sant thought they were the respective equals of Tarkovsky or Hitchcock. I think both remakes were done more in the spirit of, 'I wonder what would happen if ...' rather than, 'I can do better than ...' |

Talking of Tarkovsky, some flid who writes for the Guardian claims to have seen "Stalker" more times than he's had hot dinners/masturbated/lied about writing for Sight And Sound in order to get laid, and I was hugely amused by the fact that he seems to have missed the entire goddamn point of the film. Ha!

I'll elaborate more when I have the time, but for now let it suffice to say that I LOVED it.

Yeah, that Jodorowsky box set is pretty great and decently priced at the moment. I got it last month for about €30. I haven't watched all of it yet though.

Solyaris is great. I don't have a problem with the pace of the average Tarkovsky film, but I can imagine it doesn't suit everyone's tastes. |
