oh dude. did you fly somewhere too? i saw wickerman and last kiss on a plane recently. so awful. the worst part about Last Kiss was even though it was the worst piece of shit i've ever seen, my mom and stepdad are splitting up and i had to turn the movie off for a while because i got all sadface.

also watched My Super Ex Girlfriend on plane and LOVED IT!

wife thought it was for 10 yr olds and sucked though (prolly why i liked it)

― jaxon (jaxon), Thursday, 11 January 2007 19:41 (nineteen years ago)

all i've been doing is catching up on the wire. one trip to the cinema to see volver, which i loved. tears of the black tiger or whatever it's called will probably get me out of the house again.

yr point, ‘•’u ? LAC is the only one I've seen, and he removed all doubt since then. But I'm glad you had time to look for that, champ.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 11 January 2007 19:58 (nineteen years ago)

yeah i just remembered you bitching about "l.a. C" at some point, it took about 30 secs. you don't want to see the black dahlia. that's not a question, a statement.

― ‘•’u (gear), Thursday, 11 January 2007 20:05 (nineteen years ago)

tears of the black tiger or whatever it's called

yeah that looks interesting

how is he a racist, morbs?

― Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Thursday, 11 January 2007 20:15 (nineteen years ago)

I've not read any of the guy's books -- I rarely read contemp fiction, especially not crime stuff -- but a print interview around the time of that docu-film about JE satisfied me on that score... It was his comments on racial profiling in the Terror Age and his enthusiasm for it. Sorry, I can't find quotes.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 11 January 2007 20:21 (nineteen years ago)

The Chungking Express DVD was part of the QUENTIN TARANTINO PRESENTS series along with all the other Azn Miramax releases.

― milo z (mlp), Thursday, 11 January 2007 20:29 (nineteen years ago)

By the way, all y'all aren't missing anything, these comments are basically exactly the same as my Netflix notes.

bubba ho-tep is weird. it's not a comedy, but it marketed itself as one. it's a saddo drama about old people, wtf

OTM. nothing funny about cancer on yr dick. I like it for reasons I can't actually explain. I think because the mummy is dressed like a cowboy.

― Jessie the Monster (scarymonsterrr), Thursday, 11 January 2007 21:31 (nineteen years ago)

ellroy: rodney king blown out of proportion, rampart no big deal, etc.

I think he is more pro-law-enforcement than out-and-out racist, but when the law enforcement in question is the LAPD .....

― dmr (Renard), Thursday, 11 January 2007 22:07 (nineteen years ago)

(I still read his books / see the movies though)

― dmr (Renard), Thursday, 11 January 2007 22:09 (nineteen years ago)

I think the charm of Bubba Ho-Tep is that we all know Bruce Campbell is going to be the most awesome old dude ever.

james ellroy is probably certifiably insane and definitely has some politics i disagree with, but i don't think he's a racist. when i saw him read a few months back he kept going on about how he was going to write six more books, each one better than the previous, and then DIE.

just saw children of men!
i liked it but am feeling kind of overwhelmed
it was very blue and grey. and reminded me a bit of 28 days later, in certain ways (aesthetically and thematically), but not in other ways

― rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Sunday, 14 January 2007 04:28 (nineteen years ago)

as tears go by, for wong completism. so '80s! it's like hong kong vice or something. i love how so much of his style and themes are already obvious, even with all the linn drums.

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Sunday, 14 January 2007 05:25 (nineteen years ago)

amazing colors indeed! i envy someone seeing suspiria for the first time. color-wise, he learned from the master (bava):

hey that almost looks like it could be a still from pan's labyrinth

which I saw tonight

It was okay ... pretty cool I guess ... wished there was more underworld stuff! It was closer to Devil's Backbone than I expected ...

Marie Antoinette
The Warriors (again)

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Sunday, 14 January 2007 08:32 (nineteen years ago)

I saw The Beguiled, which is wonderful. Very deep, subtle, has perfect dialogue. I don't know how to talk about movies, but it's good!

Idiocracy

― latebloomer da nutty tarkovsky (latebloomer), Sunday, 14 January 2007 13:34 (nineteen years ago)

any NYCers seen the rereleases of EL TOPO and/or HOLY MOUNTAIN?

― T. Weiss (Timmy), Sunday, 14 January 2007 18:56 (nineteen years ago)

saw Babel last night. i thought it was alright, but wanted to shoot myself in the face afterwards. my friend thought it was TERRIBLE. i wouldn't go that far, but it was stretching the interconnectedness of these stories worse than dude's other films and they were hitting you over the head with what was gonna happen

― jaxon (jaxon), Sunday, 14 January 2007 20:13 (nineteen years ago)

I too just saw Suspiria for the first time! Really good, it was either very genuinely scary or I am a pussy when I'm hungover. I have that one chimey jam with the whispery lalalas stuck in my head.

― baron kickass von awesomehausen (nickalicious), Sunday, 14 January 2007 21:32 (nineteen years ago)

this is an extra on one of the DVD editions of Suspiria:

has anyone seen the remake of 'the hitcher'? s1ocki? i'm actually somewhat interested in seeing this for some reason. sean bean is pretty cool.

― ‘•’u (gear), Monday, 15 January 2007 18:15 (nineteen years ago)

I half-expect him to yell "FOR GONDOR!" in every movie I see him in now.

― baron kickass von awesomehausen (nickalicious), Monday, 15 January 2007 18:16 (nineteen years ago)

no i'm sending someone to that tomorrow gear.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Monday, 15 January 2007 18:23 (nineteen years ago)

i love sean bean though. RONING.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Monday, 15 January 2007 18:23 (nineteen years ago)

you gotta love a guy you can ambush with a cup of coffee.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Monday, 15 January 2007 18:23 (nineteen years ago)

one does not simply pick up a hitcher

pan's labyrinth

― elmo argonaut (allocryptic), Monday, 15 January 2007 18:40 (nineteen years ago)

Odd little docu called "In the Realms of the Unreal" about Henry Darger, reclusive outsider artist, blah blah blah.

Pretty good, although the decision to animate his paintings was sort of odd, I thought.

"Children of Men" was good, but not the SECOND COMING OF MOVIEDOM OMG some people seem to think.

― John Justen says Toonces was one of the most talented cats on televison (johnjus, Monday, 15 January 2007 18:43 (nineteen years ago)

Tears Of The Black Tiger is totally amazing. I saw it when it was first released a few years ago (in other words, I WAS THERE) and I bought the soundtrack. His other movies...not so good.

― Rebel.yell.For.Internet.cakes (nordicskilla), Monday, 15 January 2007 18:47 (nineteen years ago)

'the seven-ups' - a totally dope chase scene, awesome '70s nyc milieu, roy scheider as a borderline crooked cop (i think it's supposed to be the same character he played in 'the french connection').

― ‘•’u (gear), Monday, 15 January 2007 19:02 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, I thought the animation in that Darger doc was a mistake. It was also a bit frustrating how nobody actually knew anything about him or even how to pronounce his name.

The animation in that Beatrix Potter movie looks ridiculous too. I'd like to see someone like Ken Burns pick up this technique though so instead of slowly panning pictures of Civil War soldiers we'd actually see them come to life and bayonet each other.
