Children of Men was totally great. Michael Caine remains a perennial hero of mine.

Beerfest, on the other hand....

stumbled onto black moon on showtime late last night. (good thing too, since apparently not available on video in u.s.) quite odd, nicely dreamy. sort of a joint homage to lewis carrol and luis bunuel. (with joe dallesandro!) a real left turn for malle.

carroll with two l's, that is.

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Saturday, 6 January 2007 20:07 (nineteen years ago)

i was skeptical going in, but i ended up really liking children of men. a lot.

― elmo argonaut (allocryptic), Saturday, 6 January 2007 20:36 (nineteen years ago)

i too was a bit skeptical, especially because i hate seeing lines running out of theatres (usually an indicator of crapitude). but damn, a good flick. and that fuji girl was hot.

MY name, milton? Really? wow, weird.

well, not really of course

but on the other hand

http://www.movieposter.com/posters/archive/main/10/MPW-5016

it's among the very best (if not the best) of 70's science fiction films. it's not on DVD yet, you'll really have to hunt to find even an aging VHS copy, the only place the has it anymore in SF that I know of is Le Video, all other copies have been stolen from the local stores -- but it is worth it x 10 to find a copy. the only ant horror film that actually stars real live ants as the main characters. electronic music by David Vorhaus of White Noise & it was the only film Saul Bass ever directed.

i used to watch that movie on TV all the time as a kid!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Sunday, 7 January 2007 00:15 (nineteen years ago)

yah, it's beautiful. i remember it from years ago, i think my friend lance had a copy. or my friend joseph. one of the two. lance ran a video store in philly for years. joseph has this place now:

i knew him when he was just a dirty bootlegger running his govideo player day and night. he's a sweetie though!

oh, and in any case, i want a copy! and i want bug on dvd!

― scott seward (scott seward), Sunday, 7 January 2007 00:45 (nineteen years ago)

wait, what movie is that?
b/c it's triggering memories but they feel like dream memories...

― rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Sunday, 7 January 2007 00:55 (nineteen years ago)

I think they are still talking about Phase IV

(re black moon, showtime is doing it a few more times this week.)

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Sunday, 7 January 2007 04:36 (nineteen years ago)

(oh that was supposed to link the schedule. well, it's on the showtime site. worth seeing.)

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Sunday, 7 January 2007 04:37 (nineteen years ago)

OMG THE DEPARTED

my nerves, their edges

― rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Sunday, 7 January 2007 04:51 (nineteen years ago)

i mean, i really liked it
but i also kind of feel like throwing up

― rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Sunday, 7 January 2007 04:52 (nineteen years ago)

medicinal whiskey, helping

i get way too into movies

oh, but while shaking inside, hands are totally still - i should be undercover haha :/

― rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Sunday, 7 January 2007 05:04 (nineteen years ago)

oh man, bug will make you nervous too. it's very emotional and harrowing. and beautiful!

i can't rmember what the departed is.

― scott seward (scott seward), Sunday, 7 January 2007 05:13 (nineteen years ago)

newest scorsese
alec baldwin is in it!

― rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Sunday, 7 January 2007 05:14 (nineteen years ago)

you should go see TEH STWANGE ADVENTURES OV MISS POTTERZ & HER WASCALLY WABBITS and tell me how it is.

― scott seward (scott seward), Sunday, 7 January 2007 05:16 (nineteen years ago)

right, scorsese. i wanna see that. the history of violence made me pretty nervy and jumpy when i watched it. then, of course, i wished i was a human killing machine.

― scott seward (scott seward), Sunday, 7 January 2007 05:17 (nineteen years ago)

haha, totally

oh, i will see the peter rabbit lady movie i am sure

― rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Sunday, 7 January 2007 05:19 (nineteen years ago)

One of my favorite scenes from The Departed is where Matt Damon's standing in his office, brooding about something, and Mark Wahlberg walks by and flips him off through the window.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Sunday, 7 January 2007 05:57 (nineteen years ago)

oh yeah that one's great - there are so many great scenes!

i have calmed down now, a little

― rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Sunday, 7 January 2007 06:05 (nineteen years ago)

Comedy of Power

― tokyo nursery school: afternoon session (rosemary), Monday, 8 January 2007 03:29 (nineteen years ago)

Descent rocks, i bought the DVD day it came out

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Monday, 8 January 2007 04:28 (nineteen years ago)

and it's got the UK ending versus the arbitrarily shortened USA version

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Monday, 8 January 2007 04:32 (nineteen years ago)

just watched Michael Mann's Heat.
-- Natalie Portman was none too attractive when she was young.
-- Al Fucking Pacino.
-- The cool blue shots of fluorescent light.
-- Much too much excess, even for Mann.

i liked it, but could not believe how long it lasted. half-way through, i was ready for the end. too many sub-plots are to blame.

― the table is the table (treesessplode), Monday, 8 January 2007 04:42 (nineteen years ago)

the gauntlet - most ridiculous movie ending ever? clint eastwood and galpal navigate greyhound bus through deserted city streets, hundreds and hundreds of cops lining both sides of the street firing millions of bullets into the bus as it rides by but they're practically shooting at each other

― am0n (am0n), Monday, 8 January 2007 04:57 (nineteen years ago)

that sounds sweet. like the big bank robbery scene in Heat, except better.

― the table is the table (treesessplode), Monday, 8 January 2007 04:59 (nineteen years ago)

the mirror - holy shit.

yes

― false cat (sleep), Monday, 8 January 2007 13:03 (nineteen years ago)

^my fave Tarkovsky

The Nutty Professor (Murphy version; great prof and Mama Klump, generally witless Buddy Love)

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Monday, 8 January 2007 14:29 (nineteen years ago)

Devil Wears Prada

not my choice to watch it but it was pretty watchable

― dmr (Renard), Monday, 8 January 2007 17:23 (nineteen years ago)

so apparently joe carnahan, the dude who directed 'narc' and that piven flick 'smokin aces', will be directing the film adaptation of james ellroy's 'white jazz' and it will star george clooney. hmm i dunno...

― ‘•’u (gear), Monday, 8 January 2007 18:48 (nineteen years ago)

Castle of Cagliostro - very great! Very fun, kind of raunchy even! It just went off.

― stoked for the madness (nickalicious), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 04:58 (nineteen years ago)

Mama Klump is the greatest movie character evah.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 06:11 (nineteen years ago)

I'm staying up late tonight, and, so far, I really really LIKE The Fountain. The music is especially (unexpectably) great.

― stoked for the madness (nickalicious), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 07:07 (nineteen years ago)

Still 30 min to go.

― stoked for the madness (nickalicious), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 07:08 (nineteen years ago)

No matter how many times you hear someone quote "CAUSE SHE'S GOT A GREAT ASS... AND YOU GOT YOUR HEAD ALL THE WAY UP IT," nothing prepares you for the first time you see that scene.

― milo z (mlp), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 07:08 (nineteen years ago)

Children of Men - if not for that shitty Mexican threesome flick, Cuaron would have a perfect record of good movies.

― milo z (mlp), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 07:10 (nineteen years ago)

Why did I never watch King of Comedy until now? I want to work in the Jerry Lewis disco fantasy office.
