i have seen shrek 3 on an airplane :( :( :(

as a matter of fact im pretty sure i saw shrek 2 on a plane too

ive seen all the shreks

midwestern inlaws attempted a shrek 3 screening but the Dancer family is immune to such.

back in hs a friend of mine went to watch shrek alone on a friday night after his gf broke up with him, i made sure to rag on him about what mustve been behind his eyes when he went up to the ticket counter & said the words 'shrek for one please'

^^ ??

sexyDancer, you will have viewed Shrek within 3 years.

shrek sucks, moonship

I grew up in a "no TV" household, so I have ambitions of being a media-nazi parent.

i did too, and i wasted 5 years of my life working in film ....

yep, film major, 9 years in tv job.
still, I don't have to sit through "shrek" or the fuckin bernstein bears or even gaze into Tim Allen's slack face

my parents didn't let me own anything plastic till I was 3 and I'm using a MacBook right now...

cool movie talk dudez

Gone Baby Gone - ok
Intolerable Cruelty - bad
Together - great
American Friends - objectively awful but I really enjoyed it

Fishing w/ John - good
Yi Yi - fantastic
Mannequin (Borzage) - meh

Gone Baby Gone - confusing and not interesting enough to try and keep up

xp

return of the living dead - on cable lol
vantage point - poop

the first Shrek was OK except strange anti-midget bias.

William Daniels in 1776 will always be John Adams to me, sorry... "I'm obnoxious and disliked, you know that, sir!"

Blissfully Yours
Boys Don't Cry
Japan Japan
Stop-Loss
Hot Fuzz
Leatherheads

Is Leatherheads any good?

I mean, I figure if its good enough for you then I will probably shit my pants over it.

I'm going tonight, sorry

John Adams: Why is the camera always all slanty and waaaay too close to the actors? Is the DP invoking Battlefield Earth as a visual influence??

Other I love it, esp. Laura Linney!!

"Bare Knees" (1928) a jazz-era exploitation film, with a wild flapper girl showing up at the house of her straight-laced sister and causing all kinds of trouble. I was o_O from beginning to end, I've never seen anything like it in my life before. Great.

2 Norma Talmadge vehicles from 1916 - "Going Straight" and "Children in the House", both pretty bad - crudely edited and acted, a bit corny.

Zelig - a little disappointing but fun while I ate dinner

Zelig is awesome! "I hate your pancakes!"

Zelig is pretty great, yeah.

The flapper girl from "Bare Knees":

Intolerable Cruelty - bad

For this RONGness, you are sentenced to watch Leatherheads

La Vie En Rose -- wow this gets weird toward the end. I liked it

almost walked out of Intolerable Cruelty when I saw it at the theater

Th Darjeeling Limited

e

A Free Soul - pre-Production Code Norma Shearer vehicle costarring a rar-rar Clark Gable.

Love and Death in Long Island

Aeon Flux - I feel bad for Peter Cheung

Raise the Red Lantern - v depresso copout ending

Lars and the Real Girl - not half as bad as I expected it to be. Paul Schneider very good.
Total Recall - always great

Me Myself & Irene - the "white dude" with black kids schtick didn't work

the good shepherd -- zzzzzzzz

hudsucker proxy

good view pre-3xp3ctre with a bottle of jameson

The Trip (double feature on the Psych-Out dvd) was even nuttier than I expected. seems like they had a lot of fun in the editing room on that one

Paranoid Park - not bad, not great either ... I'm not really a GVS fan but was curious enough to see this.

Took the kid to see "spiderwick chronicles", not expecting much, it was pretty corny, but there were a few good bits and a couple of laffs. Reasonably enjoyable, if you have to take yr kid/s to see it.

But, you know, don't go out of yr way otherwise.

Repo Man - still the best movie evah

lol showed that to my sisters (they'd never seen it) the other night - 'still the best movie evah' heavily seconded.

good lord Time After Time is a piece of crap

Repo Man is so good, one of the perfect films, I can't imagine how they could possibly have made it any better. Weirdly it doesn't seem to date either, watching it, I forget how long ago it was made. I think I'll pull it off the shelf and watch it tonight, it's been about a year since I last saw it.

that punk chick is soooooo hot

I remember really clearly looking at the Repo Man box before my dad made me watch it and saying "this looks lame"...and my dad just laughed and laughed. And then I watched it and loved the SHIT out of it. I think I was 13.

Ended up watching a big chunk of WATERWORLD this weekend. It is hilarious. There's this part where Dennis Hopper's goons are all sliding down these big polls to row they're big stupid boat and one guy just LEAPT down the whole. I DON'T NEED NO POOOOOOLL!!!

Also at least 3 times Kevin Costner's fancy curved knife got knocked out of his hand/mouth and reappeared magically in his scabbard in the following frame.

They have to have known how ridiculous all this was, right?
