jaws: the revenge. michael caine and a guy that (i think) provided the inspiration for hermes on futurama. better than jaws 3.

indian rope trick (bean), Saturday, 27 January 2007 02:41 (nineteen years ago)

am finally on the deadwood bandwagon! watched the first four episodes in a row. it wasn't love at first sight but by ep 3 i knew there was no going back. i have a bad feeling about what's going to happen to my language.

maybe will see pan's labyrinth tonight
i wish inland empire was playing here already...

slither and jackass2 - both pretty great.

jhoshea (scoopsnoodle), Saturday, 27 January 2007 17:41 (nineteen years ago)

watching kiss kiss bang bang again. i love this movie so damn much

s1ocki (slutsky), Sunday, 28 January 2007 03:39 (nineteen years ago)

pan's labyrinth was crazy and intense! really good, but i don't know how to feel right now - am left half hopeful, half depressed. though the more i think about it, the more i lean towards hopeful. whatever though, that'll figure itself out - the movie itself was so well done.

kiss kiss bang bang is totally rewatchable

Babel -- I have to say, I was expecting a whole lot worse. This was surprisingly palatable. Not a masterpiece or even really very good, but why this gets as much hate as Crash is, I think, knee-jerk aftershock from that film.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Sunday, 28 January 2007 06:48 (nineteen years ago)

or aftershock from 21 grams, which is the main reason i haven't seen it. but a friend who hated 21 grams even more than me said babel was sort of ok. so maybe.

meanwhile...female trouble! i'm not sure which hall of fame divine belongs in, but there has to be one somewhere.

Dawn Davenport! The scene where (s)he trashes the family Xmass tree because there were no go-go boots underneath is comedy gold.

m coleman (lovebug starski), Sunday, 28 January 2007 13:07 (nineteen years ago)

OK DR MORBIUS I WATCHED YR PRECIOUS MUNICH.

it was ok. about what i expected. eric bana was pretty good although as the movie went along i could hear spielberg saying "ok but more INTENSE." some fairly ridiculous dialogue. and serious aesthetic conflict between spielberg's affinity for snappy action sequences and the moral freight those sequences are supposed to carry. also, the closing view of the twin towers was the cheapest of cheap shots.

gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Sunday, 28 January 2007 17:11 (nineteen years ago)

Speaking of Israel - weird 70s Israeli flick called "Metzitzim"

Basically consisted of Arik Einstein acting surly and a lot of dudes perving on ladies at the beach

A-ron Hubbard (Hurting), Sunday, 28 January 2007 17:15 (nineteen years ago)

I'll think to rent something like The Wicker Man because it seems funny though, I mean really Nick Cage punching Leelee Sobieski in the face, screaming "BITCHES" while wearing a bear suit--that is good for at least one laugh, in a group setting.
The best part is the facefull of bees!! Don't ya wish that scene was for real?

brg30 (brg30), Sunday, 28 January 2007 18:02 (nineteen years ago)

no u guys babel really does suck

jhoshea (scoopsnoodle), Sunday, 28 January 2007 18:03 (nineteen years ago)

ps i did not see 21 grams or crash

jhoshea (scoopsnoodle), Sunday, 28 January 2007 18:04 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, I'm really not saying it's good, but I'm sort of taken by how loathed it is. Maybe not quite as loathed as Munich (hyuck), but both deserve better.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Sunday, 28 January 2007 18:43 (nineteen years ago)

Notes On A Scandal. Total, TOTAL trash but lots of fun.

shopgirl, ugh, awful

dmr (Renard), Monday, 29 January 2007 03:36 (nineteen years ago)

Aw, really? It's on my list.

Laurel (Laurel), Monday, 29 January 2007 03:47 (nineteen years ago)

i just started watching "A Place Called Chiapas" on google videos

mothers against celibacy (skowly), Monday, 29 January 2007 04:08 (nineteen years ago)

first half of In The Bedroom - Dubus adaptations appear to be 0 for 2 thus far.

milo z (mlp), Monday, 29 January 2007 04:13 (nineteen years ago)

the good thing about shopgirl is how it portrays LA - i liked that.
mostly though, not such a good movie. lacklustre script that seemed to want to do something else or was just bad. people/lives i was not interested in. overall pretty boring.

rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Monday, 29 January 2007 04:13 (nineteen years ago)

i liked her apartment stairs, the driving scenes, and the LA views and sidewalks and the light

rrrobyn, breeze blown meadow of cheeriness (rrrobyn), Monday, 29 January 2007 04:14 (nineteen years ago)

the novella starts out super-twee and sweet and then just kind of peters out after a while.

milo z (mlp), Monday, 29 January 2007 04:43 (nineteen years ago)

Got so stoned and went to Holy Mountain/El Topo double feature last night at the Brattle. Liked Holy Mountain (which I'd never seen) way better, though I don't know if that was because of the "OMG IT'S THE INSIDE OF MY BRAIN" effect (they showed it before "El Topo" for some reason).

gyps, the WTC shot was so "cheap" I can guarantee you a majority of the audience probably didn't get it (and in some cases, see it -- the towers were in the b.g., after all). I thought the Hitchcock/Costa-Gavras suspense/moral weight thing was perfectly balanced.

I generally didn't mind 21 Grams much, maybe I will rent Babel or see if I can find a $6 show.

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Monday, 29 January 2007 14:37 (nineteen years ago)

A Scanner Darkly. It's the first tme Robert Downey, Jr succeeded in annoying the shit out of me.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Monday, 29 January 2007 14:54 (nineteen years ago)

Little Miss Sunshine, it made me feel good about life. There were better movies of 06, but not many that made me want a hug from my little sister so much.

Hoodwinked, far funnier than it had any business being.

The scene where (s)he trashes the family Xmass tree because there were no go-go boots underneath is comedy gold.

i believe that the item in question is cha-cha heels, not go-go boots.

lauren (laurenp), Monday, 29 January 2007 16:33 (nineteen years ago)

ayep.

Very much OTM.

Evil Breed: The Legend of Samhain (because I was hoping beyond hope I'd see J3nna Jam3son in a non-porn role keeping her top on; WRONG) (also, not even enjoyably bad) (also, take LONGER to kill off the annoying stud-douche, k thx)

David R. (popshots75`), Monday, 29 January 2007 18:15 (nineteen years ago)

tampopo - hadn't seen in a long time so v classic

Jessie the Monster (scarymonsterrr), Monday, 29 January 2007 18:18 (nineteen years ago)

Repast (Naruse) ... maybe not the best intro to this guy's work, but still great in a low key way

Eric H. (Eric H.), Monday, 29 January 2007 18:20 (nineteen years ago)

just watched spirit of the beehive. haven't caught pan's labyrinth yet.
saw children of men last night. when the title card flashed i thought we'd reached intermission!

fukasaku bloodbath (blackmail.is.my.life), Monday, 29 January 2007 18:24 (nineteen years ago)

Oh also: The War Room (hi gabbneb)

jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 29 January 2007 18:39 (nineteen years ago)

Tampopo! So classic. Egg scene, still one of the hottest movie moments for me.

blotter Budweiser Hackeysadk (nickalicious), Monday, 29 January 2007 18:47 (nineteen years ago)

kiss kiss bang bang was good, but suffered from the plot device of, i'll keep accidentally running into the same people over and over, cause this happens in real life all the time

cutty (mcutt), Monday, 29 January 2007 18:50 (nineteen years ago)

I got Two Drifters at home. Anyone seen it?

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Monday, 29 January 2007 18:59 (nineteen years ago)

It's next up on Netflix for me.

-- cutty (holle...), Today 5:50 AM. (mcutt) (later)

the movie exists in such a fantasyland that really didn't bother me

s1ocki (slutsky), Monday, 29 January 2007 21:01 (nineteen years ago)

very true, I thought the whole point of the movie was to exist in some noiresque action-adventure fantasyland

Jessie the Monster (scarymonsterrr), Monday, 29 January 2007 21:02 (nineteen years ago)

oh by the way in breach chris cooper uses the phrase "as dumb as a bag of hammers"!!! i almost fell out of my seat!!!
