driving me crazy that i can't read the note just below that, on jack's unadapted remark about how "a stupid man is more prone to cabin fever": "[something] should say this? it seems [something something something] to say it." it seems like bad job interview technique is what it seems like.

oh it's "ullman should say this".
― i want to say one word to you, just one word:buzzfeed (difficult listening hour), Friday, 31 January 2014 17:43 (ten years ago) link
ullman shouldn't say it tho because the only point of it is to hint (like the "shovel out driveways" fight much later) at how important it is to jack to feel intellectual, like a writer not a hotel caretaker. the line from this page i would have cut out last is jack's question "was he a high school graduate?" anyway nobody ends up saying any of this; good call prob.

In Room 237, I like the moment of screening The Shining simultaneously from the beginning and end. Would like to see a bunch of movies this way.

I totally want the area rug. It's color scheme is pretty much the same as the area rug that I have in my music/guest room right now, so it would fit in perfectly, except I don't know where I'd put the rug I already have.

I hate to break it to you guys but the pattern they are using is a wrong and lousy knock-off of the original design. But nice try.

This is the pattern used on the clothes. Note the extra lines. Also the black lines are way skinnier.
― ▴▲ ▴TH3CR()$BY$H()W▴▲ ▴ (Adam Bruneau), Monday, 5 May 2014 15:23 (nine years ago) link
Original pattern is more interlocking, this one looks like someone was tracing that and forgot to remove a layer or two before finalizing.

Those are much more accurate. The lines should all be thicker, but we're getting closer.
It's not easy ripping off Kubrick's production designer.

The lobby of the newly re-opened and renovated Alamo Drafthouse Cinema on South Lamar in Austin, Texas pays clever homage to The Shining.

They also redesigned the bar next door with a bunch of themed karaoke rooms including a Twin Peaks black lodge room.

great, between that and bringing the damn food in during the movie no need for me to ever set foot in that place again.
― son of a lewd monk (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 19 August 2014 16:55 (nine years ago) link
have you been to Alamo Drafthouse before? Bringing food in during movies is their entire raison d'etre. They're a pretty great chain of theaters too. I understand the irritation with having your movie experience interrupted, although they go to great lengths to make sure this isn't the case. But they do a lot more to promote the cause of cinema (all kinds) than most movie chains.

even with the food service I think my experiences there have been consistently better than any other theater I've been to regularly.

yeah, I've seen many movies there over the years and have nothing but good things to say about them, but I can understand their approach not being for everyone.
