There's a very good thread here (that I can't find at the moment) that gets into the 1982 sociology of Blade Runner (urban anxiety, white flight, fear of Asian economic immigration)

Right, right, duration and pretense being inextricably tied and all.

In another day or so I might check this out http://www.thehumanprojectlives.org/indexnew.php
But... I usually hate things like it. With the exception of those 'Lost' videos and a few peeks at the message boards for the Wire I think I've never participated in such folly.
Ohhhhh man they want me to redeem "credits" for like a photo of myself and a ticket stub? Sorry.

No, fuck that, loving La Jetee over 12 Monkeys isn't wrong at all.

la jetee and 12 monkeys are not mutually exclusive, indeed it is possible to enjoy both films

Or maybe I'm just saying that 'cuz I'm pretentious and I felt the same way about it.

12 monkeys is a movie with dialogue, acting, a wonderful score
one created the idea, the other expounded on it--it's the concept of both films i love, i don't get caught up in willis, pitt, etc, and i certainly don't sit around wishing i was watching the other when watching one of them

i didn't feel initial elation/flood-of-emotions when the end title came up though, but my kind of neutral-due-to-being-shattered-by-film reaction was as honest as they come. and like most great films, it becomes better through how it leaves you and how you think about it later
--vibe and look kinda reminded me of 28 Days Lateroh totally - all the greys and blues and misty damp. the brits are great at teh dystopia. and this really was a zombie movie in many ways.
must see again.
uh, xpost x a millioni like 12 monkeys. a lot. la jetee is a moving art film that i also like. aliens is also rad.

Leaving out Caine's final scene could have improved this movie a lot of ways, for me - watching that was such a gut check that afterwards the rest of the movie was really kind of a "whatever" experience except for the March Of The Crying Infant.
the livestock roaming the warzone ghetto were pretty funny, TBH. I didn't LOL though.

so many amazing details. off the top of my head, i liked:
that being nearly killed in a bombing isn't enough to get off work or even worth mentioning, but transparently complaiing about a diana-style celebrity death is.
the ethnic balkanization of the bexhill camp (british ramallah innit)
