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

man I'm old, I looked at this thread title and my first reaction was "DAMMIT JANET"

I thought of RHPS too Dan. It was very confusing.

Franco looks amazing. Too bad I really hate Korine.

every so often i need the internet to remind me that i really can still be confused at this late date

Don’t think she will.

Anonymous asked: Any truth to the following: Selena pees on the street. Selena masturbates in the pool. Selena smokes weed. Displays of cocaine use. Lesbians fingering each other. Sex scenes.

Well.. Let’s find out next Spring. ;)

Vanessa Anne Hudgens (born December 14, 1988) is an American actress and singer, who is best known for her portrayal of the character Gabriella Montez in the High School Musical series.

the Houston MC who got his start on MTV's From G's to Gents

I look at all this and I feel like I'm having a seizure.

this looks like, uh, something

i anticipate a spectacle unrivaled since the days of trash humpers

bguh @ "food store" pic

amateurist u wanna see this with me? u in chicago riught?

the fuck does bguh mean?

fair question

u were feelin the broads rigt?

tgise

FEELIN THOSE BROADS

is dylannn in chicago??

no. i am located in northeastern china/western canda but as a longtime ilx contirbuor i would fly to chicago to see this film with amateurist.

oh ok thats what i thought

but yeah this film looks fun to me

u, me, amateurist

get some rails smoke a little weed we doin it

armed franco in cornrows. FEELIN. what's not to like?

rails

so u into james franco?

more into bad cornrows, but he was funny in knocked up

like yr either into a korine movie w/gucci and franco-as-riff-raff etc or yr not, but surprise/disgust at it
seem kinda eh

which is to say, stoked

i am excited, as we all should be.

i just want to know how korine raised the scratch to make this. and then i want to apply this chicanery to my own financial situation.

step 1. be the best known avant-garde filmmaker of your generation
step 2. james franco
step 3. make her open the box.

once again, dropping out of film school bites me in the ass.

though i figure at this rate james franco will appear in a production by every american with a digital camera by 2017.

my 'heart attack' comment itt was obviously leaning in that direction but to be honest it just kind of speaks to the desperately enthusiastic memecore culture we live in now that the guy people had learned to ignore long before whatever the fuck Mister Lonely and Trash Humpers were is back in the spotlight with a little savvy lol casting

i mean sure vanessa hudgens in a bikini, i'm there, but not because i'm dying to be on the ground floor of the next Southland Tales

holy shit, i live in chicago and i will totally see this movie. it looks like an abomination, and we have history with harmony korine in my household.

i feel like shouting HOORAY for how bad this is going to be!

if you feel like shouting hooray, shout hooray is what i say

highlights = parts i lold at

foreevvvaaaaaaaaaarrrr

sprraaaaaaaaaaaaaaang breaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak

Highlights = this movie exists

sprraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang

breaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak

Love this film. Did that sequel ever get made?

would love to read a french review/essay on this film. french film people must love it to death.

cahiers du cinema top ten that year:

1. Stranger By The Lake (Alain Guiraudie)
2. Spring Breakers (Harmony Korine)
3. Blue Is The Warmest Color (Abdellatif Kechiche)
4. Gravity (Alfonso Cuaron)
5. A Touch of Sin (Jia Zhang-Ke)
6. Lincoln (Steven Spielberg)
7. Jealousy (Philippe Garrel)
8. Nobody’s Daughter Haewon (Hong Sang-Soo)
9. You and the Night (Yann Gonzalez)
10. La bataille de Solférino (Justine Triet)

looks about right

I hope The Trap plays at the local movie house. It probably won't though. I never get to see his movies at the actual movies.

Hesitate to re-open this thread--I know what the next three posts will be--but I wanted to see how this would hold up alongside American Honey, which it obviously influenced. I called it tedious upthread; I think American Honey's far superior, but I found Korine's film somewhat more interesting this time. Franco (nervy performance--he risks coming across as absolutely ridiculous, and I'm sure he does for many people, but I like what he does; Taxi Driver's Sport, definitely), the photography, and the dreaminess of the early scenes are good. Its presentation of generational vacuity is probably just as valid as The Bling Ring or Palo Alto. (They all have at least one character who's set apart--I guess that's Selena Gomez here.) Past that, I don't know. I didn't grow up with MTV's spring break series--maybe that'd provide some context I don't have. American Honey moves me; at best, Spring Breakers points towards something more, and settles for repetitions that are supposed to be hypnotic or profound or something. For me, they're just repetitive.

SPRAAAAAANGGGG BRAAKKKKKKKE

One good thing about this movie is it showed franco was so bad it helped him get less roles

And thus we never hear about him anymore

Thank you korine

My conclusion too. I can't persuade myself to watch Springbreakers again, though.

It's like Andrea Arnold saw this, really responded to something in it, then wondered if you could do a variation on it (helped by finding her source material in the newspaper) with a lot of feeling and empathy in place of a concept.

I sometimes like to imagine what a Harmony Korine movie about Reading Week would be like. Nubile young women put on an extra sweater before trudging to the Second Cup to cram for midterms...?

I thought you meant Reading festival and was quite confused

I'll always remember going to see this film one afternoon, leaving the cinema in a strange, dream-like state and then getting home to the news that Maggie Thatcher was dead. A perfect day.

Forevvvvvvveeeeerrrr

The Beach Bum is his best movie by a long shot, so fucking funny

good tip, it didn't realize it came out!

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

haha yessss this was amazing, was shocked/disappointed to not find the footage or any similar commentary on it online (basically he talks about how his wife is 26 and "we met about 10 years ago [akward pause], actually we met 8 years ago")
