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

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.

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.

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.

i really like the name "the whispery la-las" for a band.

i watched 54 tonight because i've been reading a book about disco history and i've seen most other disco movies before. it was okay-- i really love Dottie Disco the best, tho. the rest of the movie was sort of 'great, another ryan philippe sexy shot.' fucking stupid.

― the table is the table (treesessplode), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 05:56 (nineteen years ago)

the rest of the movie was sort of 'great, another ryan philippe sexy shot.' fucking stupid.

If that were true, I might've loved the movie. Instead I thought it was a strong contender for all-time worsts. Still, it might be Miramax's fault.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 06:05 (nineteen years ago)

'the seven-ups'

Classic! That was one they would play a lot on t.v. during my misspent youth.

― scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 06:06 (nineteen years ago)

Pan's Labyrinth - even better than the Devil's Backbone.

spinal tap

Desk Set, cute but doesn't hold up so well.

Tears of the Black Tiger not on Nflix.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 15:39 (nineteen years ago)

Black Christmas

― Dr. Alicia D. Titsovich (sexyDancer), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 15:47 (nineteen years ago)

Weren't there two movies about Studio 54? One with Mike Myers? Or is that 54? I can't remember

Saw Before Sunrise the other night for the first time since 1995. There's something a little too mannered about their dialogue sometimes -- which I didn't notice in the sequel -- and Hawke is kind of a douche (although I think that's just how is character is written). But oh man, Julie Delpy is so great. And pretty.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 16:00 (nineteen years ago)

klute. not a wonderful movie, but jane fonda was just amazing. there's no way men wrote her dialogue.

wait, slocki are you in town?

― Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 16:27 (nineteen years ago)

tears of the black tiger is playing at the film forum.

― lauren (laurenp), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 16:36 (nineteen years ago)

i just saw BLACK SNAKE MOAN

despite a movie featuring a half-naked christina ricci being led around on a chain for an hour being seemingly target marketed directly to me, it was...not good.

― acid waffle house (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 17:28 (nineteen years ago)

the machinist (ehh)
season 1 of huff (yay)
season 2 of huff (um)

― indian rope trick (bean), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 18:47 (nineteen years ago)

Ha - saw THE MACHINIST, too. Up until the last half-hour, the movie was solid - the reveal, tho, was meh. Spent the first 30 minutes thinking to myself, "HOLY FUCK CHRISTIAN!"

I heard otherwise!

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 18:53 (nineteen years ago)

well you heard wrong.

― acid waffle house (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 18:53 (nineteen years ago)

director dude's pathology is...something.

― acid waffle house (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 18:53 (nineteen years ago)

The trailer makes it look like it could fit in with the Tarantino and Rodriguez sections of GrindHouse, but I don't think that was the original plan.

― milo z (mlp), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 18:55 (nineteen years ago)

though perhaps i'm reading too much into a white dude's first movie being about a black pimp's salvation and his second being about a black bluesman's salvation through leading a young white nymphette around on a motherfuckin 40 foot chain

― acid waffle house (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 16 January 2007 18:56 (nineteen years ago)

Dear Zardoz,

WTF kind of movie do you think you are? Whatever kind it is, I love you.

Yr pal,

Nick

Henry Fool
The Unbelievable Truth
The Shooting Party

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Wednesday, 17 January 2007 15:45 (nineteen years ago)

I think there was just a glut of disco-ear films that came out at about the same time. 54 was the same summer as The Last Days of Disco.

Man on Fire > Domino > Deja Vu

― milo z (mlp), Thursday, 18 January 2007 04:36 (nineteen years ago)

I haven't seen Deja Vu yet. I should definitely netflix it, from that description.

― AllyzayEisenschefterBDawkinsFlyingSquirrelRomoCrying.jpg (allyzay), Thursday, 18 January 2007 04:52 (nineteen years ago)

I really liked Domino, though.

― milo z (mlp), Thursday, 18 January 2007 04:57 (nineteen years ago)

V For Vendetta (it's been a long time since I read the comic, but I seem to recall there being a little more to it than "Ned Raggett in Batman Vs. The RepulicaNazis")
