― Pashmina, Friday, 27 April 2007 00:46 (nineteen years ago)

WTF

had to stop watching "babel" at 1.5 hrs in
i just cannot get through this guy's movies

― rrrobyn, Sunday, 29 April 2007 03:19 (nineteen years ago)

the Anthony Lane Stanwyck essay made me really sad for some reason. he was right about that dick-withering thing she's amazing at, at any rate.

Year of the Dog was really good

― Hurting 2, Sunday, 29 April 2007 04:45 (nineteen years ago)

Sisters: awesome
Baxter: pointless
Sherlock Holmes Faces Death: surprisingly bad!

― Dan I., Sunday, 29 April 2007 05:04 (nineteen years ago)

Watson really sucked.

― Dan I., Sunday, 29 April 2007 05:04 (nineteen years ago)

land of the dead
united 93
the hills have eyes remake !!

Hoax -- BIG disappointment, played for laughs and hence rendered unbelievable. I wanted to know HOW this guy pulled off such a scam. as for the mega-cliched 60s soundtrack after awhile I wanted to puke everytime Riche Havens started warbling "here comes the sun dododo."

― m coleman, Sunday, 29 April 2007 11:53 (nineteen years ago)

idiocracy - stupid, trashy, but ultimately verrry entertaining
curse of the golden flower - 98% bad shakespeare stuff 2% badass kungfu
Volver - "women are sooooo strong and witty and men are so creepy" (as annoying as that was i still liked it)

― Fetchboy, Sunday, 29 April 2007 19:09 (nineteen years ago)

That's what all Almodovar is like, and it's all annoying.

― Hurting 2, Sunday, 29 April 2007 22:19 (nineteen years ago)

(btw drag queens are also strong and witty)

― Hurting 2, Sunday, 29 April 2007 22:20 (nineteen years ago)

borat - enh. barely laffed at anything aside from naked fight.

jack goas boating - since there's no PLAYS! thread guess I'll put it here ... Philip Seymour Hoffman as white-dreadlocks pothead schlub wit' a heart of gold. pretty funny.

― dmr, Monday, 30 April 2007 00:32 (nineteen years ago)

my mom wrote me about 'jack goes boating,' wanted to know if i was going. (she reads in the nyt about all the plays she will never see in rochester.) i will tell her 'dmr sez quote pretty funny unquote.' i like when my mom comes to town because she wants to see like harold pinter revivals instead of 'mamma mia' like some other moms i know.

― tipsy mothra, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:14 (nineteen years ago)

oh movies, i saw devil wears prada. i was confused because i had the feeling i was supposed to be sympathetic to anne hathaway over meryl streep but i was 180 degrees opposite (and it felt like the movie was too). who cared about anne hathaway's stupid career? the whole movie should've just been meryl streep and stanley tucci.

― tipsy mothra, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:16 (nineteen years ago)

Hot Fuzz

― latebloomer, Monday, 30 April 2007 08:37 (nineteen years ago)

tipsy, I had forgotten or didn't know you were part of the Rochester swarm.

"women are sooooo strong and witty and men are so creepy"

This is the way to bet.

― Dr Morbius, Monday, 30 April 2007 13:14 (nineteen years ago)

Ball of Fire (Hawks' Capra film?)
Old Joy
The Life and Times of Colonel Blimp

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Monday, 30 April 2007 14:10 (nineteen years ago)

Hot Fuzz was great.

― nickalicious, Monday, 30 April 2007 14:16 (nineteen years ago)

Hot Fuzz
The Wire (Season 2)

― David R., Monday, 30 April 2007 14:19 (nineteen years ago)

tipsy, I had forgotten or didn't know you were part of the Rochester swarm.

you must've missed the wegmans thread...

last night i watched repulsion. holy christ.

― tipsy mothra, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 01:00 (nineteen years ago)

omg there's a wegmans thread??

I think the thing that made me kind of dig devil wears prada is that the movie does seem to be on meryl streep's side.

― horseshoe, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 04:05 (nineteen years ago)

DIG! (ungh)

― David R., Wednesday, 2 May 2007 04:33 (nineteen years ago)

i'm still pissed i miss old joy when it played here

― river wolf, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 04:46 (nineteen years ago)

i think i might get stoned and watch Ronin for like the bazillionth time???

― river wolf, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 04:46 (nineteen years ago)

I watched the first part of Grindhouse. Surprisingly awesome! Download it, though; don't give Tarantino your $$$.

― BLASTOCYST, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 05:12 (nineteen years ago)

The Long Goodbye
Cria!
Brick
Passio
Prick Up Your Ears
Love Me or Leave Me

Alfred, Ball of Fire isn't nearly corny enough for Capraesqueness. (Wilder said it was their 'loose' Snow White)

― Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 14:03 (nineteen years ago)

I've been watching the Planet Earth series, which is technically tv, but so grand in scope I think it should count. Incredible.

― nickalicious, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 14:50 (nineteen years ago)

Little Children -- worth a peek if only to admire Patrick Wilson and his Magic Heaving Buttocks.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 15:48 (nineteen years ago)

Planet Earth is crazy and cool but the constant back-patting (for the FIRST TIME EVER you will see a WOLF digest a SMALL CHICKEN, shot from our MAGIC HELICOPTER CAM etc etc) and tons of commercials have kept me from watching very much at a time. would be better on dvd.

― dmr, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 16:13 (nineteen years ago)

What'd you think of Love Me Or Leave Me, Morbs?

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 16:17 (nineteen years ago)

It was pretty good, esp Cagney and Doris' songs, but for that bleak a story it needed more graphic treatment -- ie, shoulda been made 20 years later. A little too long also.

― Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 16:19 (nineteen years ago)

I'm not sure how I feel about Day singing stuff like "Ten Cents A Dance"; she worked hard to sell them (you can see her sweat), which is probably the point.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 16:42 (nineteen years ago)

Infamous - I fell asleep, but it wasn't bad
Carandiru - sort of unsatisying and messy and (maybe) bad

Alfred - where did you see Old Joy?

― admrl, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 16:44 (nineteen years ago)

i saw the departed last night and matt damon's character spoke EXACTLY like my younger sister's boyfriend.

two things made me home sick for boston- a harpoon beer poster in a background shot of a bar and hearing someone get called a donkey.

― chicago kevin, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 16:45 (nineteen years ago)

I believe Old Joy came out on DVD yesterday

― Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 16:47 (nineteen years ago)

Oh!

― admrl, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 16:50 (nineteen years ago)

Alfred - where did you see Old Joy?

Yup, I got it yesterday. Will watch it tonight.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 16:50 (nineteen years ago)

I missed it in the theatre. It is now at the top of my Netflix.

― admrl, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 16:51 (nineteen years ago)

Has anyone remarked how the campfire scene in Old Boy resembles the one in My Own Private Idaho?

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Thursday, 3 May 2007 15:19 (nineteen years ago)

Anyone interested in a early evening screening on sat of christine, children of paradise or fri 13th part 3?

― JW, Thursday, 3 May 2007 15:34 (nineteen years ago)

i finally watched the bird people of china - i am completely and deeply in love with bird girl.

― jhøshea, Thursday, 3 May 2007 15:35 (nineteen years ago)

i think i saw her on the train last night u_u

― JW, Thursday, 3 May 2007 15:36 (nineteen years ago)

i'm sure at some point she'll come to see that i'm a sounder romantic investment than deaf guitarist.

― jhøshea, Thursday, 3 May 2007 15:36 (nineteen years ago)

xpost to Alfred

Someone has, in fact.

should I go see Our Man Flint tonight or Syndromes and a Century[/i]?

― Dr Morbius, Thursday, 3 May 2007 15:38 (nineteen years ago)

Gad, I had no idea you reviewed it. The massage scene is all I'll likely remember of the movie (and maybe the dog carrying the stick).

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Thursday, 3 May 2007 16:09 (nineteen years ago)

well, I didn't fully review it. Someone who thought Daniel London was listenning to RIGHT-WING RADIO in the car instead of Air America might have.

― Dr Morbius, Thursday, 3 May 2007 16:13 (nineteen years ago)

New Yorkers with any '60s / Vietnam / Nixon obsessions might wanna check out some Emile de antonio docs at Anthology -- I need to make time for the Weather Underground one.

― Dr Morbius, Thursday, 3 May 2007 20:02 (nineteen years ago)
