SPRING BREAKERS (2013) GUCCI MANE, SELENA GOMEZ & JAMES FRANCO (as Riff Raff?) DIR. BY HARMONY KORINE

also: lol @ my little pony making two appearances

oh wow i thought that was riff riff the whole time and was kinda pissed about it although i ended up liking it.

SPRING BREAK FOREVER

I am on vacation with a friend, just saw this, and am gonna say "spring breeeeak" at each other the next couple of days.

Skrillex -> Martinez comparison otm

heh

brb waking up his hungover self by whispering "spring breeeeeak" at his head

mh my post was in reference to the fact that most of the score was cliff martinez not skrillex

haha, I was drunk, and that makes a lot more sense than whatever I was thinking

yeah the piano scene had me in stitches.

also loved the scene that seemed like franco's take on 'in brazil bad bitch stripper'

i kinda wish korine wasn't so heavy handed with the ironic voiceovers, obv the visuals are inescapably engorged, let them do their thing

like i kinda wish michael bay had directed this instead

i really dug the orchestral version of scary monters and nice sprites at the end

Is the movie itself as visually ugly as the ads for it are? Will kinda be the deciding factor for me.

you mean is it as visually splendid as the ads make it out to be, and yes, it is

probably because they showed the trailer for 'pain & gain' before this

also mega lols @ them showing the trailer for the bling ring before this. 1.) they know their audience 2.) people are probably gonna peg it as a spring breakers rip even tho it was probably in production before spring breakers

heh i thought of belly while i was watchin this

mostly the scene where gucci (who isnt convincing at all as a tough guy, but i liked how plump and satisfied he seemed) is talking about needing to feed his baby

thinking of seeing this after work 2morrow

"They sent me a clip of this girl walking across the room with three or four Coke cans on her ass, and we cast her, based on that video," Korine told Vulture.

I just needed to quote that.

"Why can't you just dream on it ?"

but yeah the colors in this movie are unreal

colors felt almost believable in the beginning, just some well chosen and lighted locations, all this naturalistic work done with huge aperture lenses, soft focus in the lecture hall and other dark environs

but after a while it became clear the cinematographer just went to party city with hundreds of dollars and bought out the colored fluorescent section

fucking around with white balance

this was like an old corman movie directed by a kid who'd later go on to making great movies

also mega lols @ them showing the trailer for the bling ring before this. 1.) they know their audience 2.) people are probably gonna peg it as a spring breakers rip even tho it was probably in production before spring breakers

same distributor, whose primary focus seems to be art movies about teenagers (And charlie sheen): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A24_Films

Aiming for the Saw of teen comedies.

inspired me to go back and listen to In The Zone again. I almost forgot how great the songs on it are.

the weirdest thing about this movie (and I can only find a couple things alluding to this online): Janusz Kaminski was the original DP for this?

no wai

he did say his next project will be Harmony Korine‘s Spring Breakers.

okay this was huge fun. biggest small-theatre crowd for 5pm $5 Tuesday I've seen in ages, and almost all teenagers, which made it fun. Britney piano scene got huuuuge lols, and everyone cracked up every time Franco did his spraaaaaaannnnng breeeaaaaaaak

Visuals were ridic. It took me the drive home for my eyes to adjust to the fact that Sacramento does NOT look like Florida

Was really into the fact that it was pretty much a no-consequences crime drama, and that the girls weren't just fresh meat. Franco blowing the guns for the girls was LOL

i wonder if that was franco's idea

yeah i was wondering that too
felt kinda franco

Plans to go hotbox and then go see the early show of this with friends Friday. Fuckin Amped.

no-consequences crime drama

no spoilers intended but tell that to franco and gucci mane's characters!

i meant more the girls but yeah point taken lol

The disparity of consequences is one of the main points, I think.

my main problem with the film is that korine's arthouse tics are so transparent

did anyone see the bit (clipped on the soup) of korine talking about meeting his wife?

the looping got a *little* tiresome by the end

so did old ppl humping trash, thats the point think abt it

old ppl humping trash prob find that humping trash gets tiresome, too. unless you meant that figuratively.
