this is the greatest movie ever made and anyone who disagrees should have their status as an oscar-voter revoked.

Know why I love this movie? Because it's so unassailably, unabashedly weird. It's nearly peerless in demeanor, tho Buckaroo Banzai sits at the same lunch table... And if it doesn't get auteured to death, Anderson's Inherent Vice adapt might sidle up shortly some year.

yeah Buckaroo Banzai, another fitfully amusing '80s "nice try" at eccentricity.

Ha ha, this falls right in line with my long-held theory that '70s punks (and the critics who championed the CBGB scene) were a bunch of art school shits who looked down their noses at those knuckle-dragging hardcore kids coming on the scene behind them.

Do I try to catch repo man in 35mm or do I finally watch the Blu-ray which I haven't opened yet
I can only do one or the other
One option saves $14 and I won't have to feel embarrassed for everybody who laughs in the wrong places or fails to laugh in the right ones

It's up to you--there's still plenty to savor on the blu after the screening. I saw it projected as a midnight show a few years back (and wrote about it somewhere upthread iirc) with a tiny audience--no more than 15 people--who seemed to get it.
