Guest Franklin Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 ya what's the deal about Snynecdoche and the oscars? are they up for 2009 oscars or did the movie just not get any nods in '08? yes zaphod.... agree with you on that scene. also the scene when the daughter is dying and tells him about the chick (maria or something) who gave her the tattoo (when she was so young) and "taught her everything about her body and love and sex" etc and psh was like... you were with Maria (or whatever he name is)??

awepittance Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 (edited) zaphod said: yeah, mirezzi is going to hate this, i can already tell. well if remember correctly you really disliked kaufmann's past movies, no? I personally felt this was his weakest film since Human Nature, it had the concept and story of a very awesome amazing film but i felt that it wasn't carried all the way through to live up the potential. also the old people makeup was very hard for me to take seriously, it was some of the most frequent use of old people makeup i have ever seen in 'serious' film. I do intend on seeing it again soon though.

Oh, I liked Unbreakable enough, but I've only watched it once and probably won't again. There's some small part of me that liked LITW it, too, probably...especially if I was forced to compare it to other Shamaalallalalayeyan films.

autopilot Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Unbreakable is a fantastic film. I consider M Night a one hit wonder, and it's that film, not Sixth Sense. Mainly because the "twist" is ancilliary, not the whole fucking point of the film.

Guest Mirezzi Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 (edited) I didn't hate it, but it was another two hours of non-sequitur, free association Kaufmanism. It had more intellectual gobbledygook than Adaptation but was only half as engaging. If you cracked open the head of a shitty playwright caught in a mid-life crisis and were somehow able to transcribe all his petty experiences into a script and then somehow managed to hire Charlie Kaufman to direct it, you'd have this film. That's not necessarily the formula for a bad film, but it's not one I'd like to watch more than half of once. At sixty minutes, I was still waiting for cinema. At ninety minutes, I knew my hopes were fading and futile. "DIE." (Zaphod - are you fucking with me? What, the first thirty times you saw PSH cry in this weren't enough? It was the thirty-first time that really "got you"?) $10 says at least two of you are conspiring to fuck with me. P.S. - I don't do drugs.

Guest Mirezzi Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Some douche bag just said this to me: Quote This is the ultimate Kaufman. It works brilliantly. I love the particular way he eschews the narrative for affect in the film. beneboi said: you were told you wouldn't like it No, wait, fuck that, I'm kidding! Here, lemme try again... Wow. What a head fuck. This was an explosion of art and language, the definitive micro-macro-micro-cosm of our senseless lives. I'm gonna have to think on this one because my head is spinning. Truly beautiful. Epic even. Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/38018-synecdoche-new-york/page/5/#findComment-1006716 Share on other sites More sharing options...
