"Sure. He means like the rappers, you know, All the rappers, they got names like that: Snoop Doggy Dogg, Ice Cube, Q-Tip, Method Man. My favorite was always Flavor Flav from Public Enemy. You got the funky fresh fly flavor. "

Ghost Dog's pretty good, but only because Jarmusch crafted it as a tribute to one of the greatest films of all time, BRANDED TO KILL.

I'm in love with Jarmusch and I've only watched Broken Flowers and Coffee & Cigarettes. I need to step it up.

I love Jarmusch too, I'd recommend you to watch Mystery Train (it's my favorite), Dead Man, Down by Law and Ghost Dog. They're all amazing movies in my book.

The first two stories of Mystery Train are good. Limits of Control is amazing. Everything else ... isn't really my thing. I hate Down by Law, I think it's one of the most boring films I've ever seen. He's not awful, just kinda dull, he has a good taste in movies though.

SMALL WHITE HOUSE - 9/10
Completely unknown (5 ratings on imdb!) but completely, insanely brilliant movie. I'm uploading it to cinemageddon in a bit. |

Lady in water was like a movie that did not know it was supposed to be a movie, awkward and not fulfilling at all

Forget Uwe Bolle -- I really think Shyalaman is the worst director of all time.

there's something about the atmosphere in kiyoshi kurosawa's films that you just can't get anywhere else. That being said, he's yet to make a consistent film, from top to bottom.

I watched Lady In The Water because I figured, "how bad could it be? " and then I found out.

long goodbye - 9/10 Nothing like some good neo-noir. Yet another brilliant Robert Altman film. |

Bolle films are at least hilariously entertaining. And you have to admit, Bolle has petitions made to get his movies stopped, but he's just like "whatever, I'll raise the $ myself and still make it." Bolle to me is like our generations' Ed Wood Jr. M Night just sucks.

Heh. I wouldn't go that far. Ed Wood's films were brilliant. He made at least 3 masterpieces (Glen or Glenda, Plan 9, and Night of the Ghouls). He was brilliant; I think he was really ahead of his time, actually. I think if Criterion or somebody re-released Glen or Glenda, with a different "context", presenting it like some kind of Bunuelian or Lynchian film, some kin of experimental or arthouse film or something.. people would be forced to re-evaluate it for the work of personal, autobiographical, absurdist art that it is. I think Ed Wood knew exactly what he was doing, and I think he was better than, oh, Orson Welles or Hitchcock or whoever. Anyway... WHO ARE YOU, POLLY MAGOO - 9/10 Wow, this film was brilliant! It currently has 285 ratings on imdb.. the fuck? |
