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.

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.

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

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 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 mirror - holy shit.

^my fave Tarkovsky

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

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.

― walter kranz (walterkranz), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 07:16 (nineteen years ago)

I loved The Fountain! I can see how it could be boring and trite or something to those less emotionally maleable, but I found it beautiful, at points heart-breakingly so.

― stoked for the madness (nickalicious), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 07:49 (nineteen years ago)

I still love this movie.

― remybean (bean), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 08:49 (nineteen years ago)

Watched Cagliostro because of this thread (though I'd always meant to sometime). I had no idea it lifted/homaged so much stuff from Mr. Wonderbird / The King and the Mockingbird!

― Dan I. (Dan I.), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 12:48 (nineteen years ago)

Clearly, Eddie's fondness for hanging with trans folks paid dividends.

House of Strangers (odd JL Mankiewicz ethnic semi-noir)

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 14:21 (nineteen years ago)

Oh I almost forgot but apparently Les Claypool did sound work on Castle of Cagliostro.

― stoked for the madness (nickalicious), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 19:25 (nineteen years ago)

Maybe that belongs on oh face emoticon thread?

― stoked for the madness (nickalicious), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 19:25 (nineteen years ago)

Oh google, why must you always dash my dreams with your facts? (Not the same Les Claypool).

― stoked for the madness (nickalicious), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 19:28 (nineteen years ago)

gear that casting for white jazz sounds perfect! have you read it?

― Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 19:43 (nineteen years ago)

rewatched George Romero's Season of the Witch with friends on DVD -- surreal dream sequences and captures 70's hipster suburbia much more horrifyingly than the kitsched-out Stepford Wives -- every scene is powerful, especially the conversations between the main character, her daughter & her daughter's stoner professor boyfriend.

great electronic music score + the donovan song as she does a tour of early 70's san francisco co-op stores = amazing, this is just as resonant as Night of the Living Dead. need to see his other early films _now_.

― milton parker (Jon L), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 20:06 (nineteen years ago)

i have read it! it's my favorite ellroy novel, maybe. i'm a little iffy on carnahan directing it, though. his new flick looks dire, like 'one night at mccool's' as remade by mcg. i think clooney could be good. but he could be all wrong. it's 50/50.

― ‘•’u (gear), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 20:12 (nineteen years ago)

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

I still love this movie.

I like it a lot too.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 14:55 (nineteen years ago)

Milton, The Crazies is great too. And Martin! hell, I like them all. I love Knightriders too. So underrated by normal people.

― scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 14:58 (nineteen years ago)

"his new flick looks dire, like 'one night at mccool's' as remade by mcg"

Um, what?

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 14:59 (nineteen years ago)

supposedly there is a re-make of The Crazies in the works. Upcoming from Romero: Diary Of The Dead and a movie about a dead rock band.

― scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 15:01 (nineteen years ago)

oh right. that movie. yeah that does look dire. it's like the 2000s' things to do in denver when yr dead. but narc was great.

― Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 15:09 (nineteen years ago)

Aw come on! Alicia Keys + guns! Yeah!

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 15:10 (nineteen years ago)

when the levees broke
aguirre
stroszek
l'avventura

― false cat (sleep), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 15:21 (nineteen years ago)

if not for that shitty Mexican threesome flick

yeah, i don't understand how the same person made both of these films

― cutty (mcutt), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 15:25 (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.

i am so happy that someone else has seen this movie. that scene reminded me of all of the coke freakout moments in Scarface, but better, because HOLY SHIT. comes out of nowhere.

also, i wonder of the director of 'white jazz' know that people like me refuse to see movies based on the fact that George Clooney is in them. that smug shit needs to stop getting roles.

^^^

hahah

― cousin larry bundgee (bundgee), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 23:25 (nineteen years ago)

what i love about that scene is he's really close to saying "big ass!" but then switches it up at the last second.

but i think i prefer the 'by the time i get to phoenix' bit.

― ‘•’u (gear), Wednesday, 10 January 2007 23:30 (nineteen years ago)

people like me refuse to see movies based on ellroy novels
