School For Scoundrels (I miss the wrinkles in Billy Bob's forehead and do not understand why Jon Heder exists)
Eddie Murphy: Delirious (it's being released on DVD this Tuesday in honor of Isaiah Washington)

orson welles f is for fake is about to be viewed by me for the third time this week...

Graveyard of Honor. Fukasaku's original makes Miiike's remake seem like rational, well-mannered filmmaking.

Fave scene: an army of unarmed cops and mobsters are outside Ishikawa's hideout, he starts shooting them randomly and they respond with a hail of rocks while Ishikawa's drug buddy reels around the room screaming "WE'RE OUT OF FUCKING DOPE!" Classic.

Flags Of Our Fathers (repetitious and overlong, but I liked it overall)
Pulse ("We have to get out of the Wifi!!!", Brad Dourif cameo 50 minutes in)

― Zwan (miccio), Monday, 5 February 2007 14:58 (nineteen years ago)

bodie was in oz?!

― cutty (mcutt), Monday, 5 February 2007 15:20 (nineteen years ago)

Sex and Lucia (softcore porn ---> weird, writer-goes-crazy bullshit. totally cheezball, and chockablock with WTF moments)

Good Morning, Vietnam (heh. also a bit cheezball, but brought back memories of cranking the soundtrack when i was a little kid)

― grbchv! (skowly), Monday, 5 February 2007 15:21 (nineteen years ago)

tazza: the high rollers looks good. it's only playing at the imaginasian, though. inconvenient location vs really fun snacks. hmm.

the descent

― dmr (Renard), Monday, 5 February 2007 15:33 (nineteen years ago)

how many walkouts, Eric?

gyps, I liked Waking Life in '01 and still do. People who complained it was like an undergraduate philosophy bull session kinda missed the point, ie, yeah it is but the net's a bit wider. And the visuals keep the dialogue from becoming deadly (except for fucking Speed Levitch).

yeah. sidenote, the prof who gives the spiel on existentialism vs. postmodernism just died.

"Rescreened" Conversations with Other Women the other night. Fascinating to watch a second time, once you know the nature of the relationship.

― jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 5 February 2007 18:30 (nineteen years ago)

said professor was even better in Slacker: "someday I want to pull a Guy Fawkes on it, blow them all sky high"

― milo z (mlp), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 00:58 (nineteen years ago)

oops got my UT professors mixed up. Mackey (old anarchist) wasn't the professor in Waking Life

bodie was in oz?!
Yeah, he shows up in episode 2 or 3, 16-year old murderer who falls in with Adebisi & Co..

― milo z (mlp), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 01:03 (nineteen years ago)

david bowie in the prestige rofl

― cutty (mcutt), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 04:39 (nineteen years ago)

Adaptation (Chris Cooper aside, meh)

― Zwan (miccio), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 05:09 (nineteen years ago)

did anyone think the prestige was fucked up and wonderful?

― cutty (mcutt), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 05:16 (nineteen years ago)

yes, no

― milo z (mlp), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 05:56 (nineteen years ago)

how many walkouts, Eric?

Actually, only two that I can remember. A few more of the audience of roughly 50 took off during one of the two intermissions, but I can't call them walkouts necessarily since they were offering to let people break up the screening over two days.

Less walkouts than there were during A Grin without a Cat and (especially) La Commune.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 08:15 (nineteen years ago)

Or, for that matter, Mysterious Object At Noon, which I think still stands as something of a landmark in walkouts. Granted, the film started with only about 20 people in the auditorium, but I was one of only three or four left at the end. And that was only because I fell asleep a few times.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 08:16 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, wait. I almost forgot about the throngs rushing to the exits during Kubelka.

And Femme Fatale, which lost well over half its audience during the film.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 08:17 (nineteen years ago)

Stupidest walkout of all time: two dudes who left The Passenger about a minute or two before the final shot.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 08:18 (nineteen years ago)

Fools! (and what is kubelka?)

ouch

Halloween
favorite parts were the scenes of JLC crossing the street early in the film. HUGE trees. Another scene, MM watches JLC walk away as the soundtrack slowly crossfades into the sound of his beathing and it seems as if the film is slowing down. Ace.

I did!

― blotter Budweiser Hackeysadk (nickalicious), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 17:55 (nineteen years ago)

Peter Kubelka talks too much (or, directors present at screening)...

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 17:59 (nineteen years ago)

i loved the prestige, despite its flaws. it has the kind of murky, sf-tinged convoluted plot that i just eat up.

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 18:10 (nineteen years ago)

Adaptation (Chris Cooper aside, meh)

-- Zwan (anthonyisrigh...), February 6th, 2007.

have you ever seen Identity (with John Cusack)? it's almost the exact same movie that Charlie Kaufman's hack brother comes up with!

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 18:18 (nineteen years ago)

its soooooo bad, i actualy guessed the "plot twist" from the trailer

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 18:18 (nineteen years ago)

identity was terrible

― dmr (Renard), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 18:25 (nineteen years ago)

i actualy guessed the "plot twist" from the trailer

haha I did this with that Robert De Niro/Dakota Fanning "thriller" from a couple years ago.

― blotter Budweiser Hackeysadk (nickalicious), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

what identity needed was some culturally relevant nudity

― sexyDancer (sexyDancer), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 18:39 (nineteen years ago)

prestige too

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 18:46 (nineteen years ago)

imdb's bio of donald kaufman used to list "The Thr3e" as "in development" or something. but now it's gone. :(

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 19:46 (nineteen years ago)

(if yr gonna actually give donald kaufman a bio, you might as well go along with the joke all the way.)

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 19:47 (nineteen years ago)

― jhoshea (scoopsnoodle), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 20:08 (nineteen years ago)

i saw laurel's canyon

― cutty (mcutt), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 20:12 (nineteen years ago)

I, Sawyer. Laurel Canyon.

― blotter Budweiser Hackeysadk (nickalicious), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 20:19 (nineteen years ago)

You're all too late, a friend of my brother's has been calling me Laurel Canyon for like a year, and I'm pretty sure it hasn't even occurred to him that it's rude. We raise 'em polite-like out there.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 20:38 (nineteen years ago)

haha I did this with that Robert De Niro/Dakota Fanning "thriller" from a couple years ago.
spoil it for us, plz.

― milo z (mlp), Tuesday, 6 February 2007 20:40 (nineteen years ago)
