The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call - New Orleans

First all out crazy non sell out campy safe nicolas cage movie in a long fucking time

fucking over the top satire on bad cop movies, shit gets recockulous, highly recommend watching the screener rip with whilst uncomprehendingly inebriated

Wish I could post a clip of him putting a gun to these 2 grandmas in a nursing home, its not the bees x11 I shit you not

so is this a modern version of a 17 year old movie?

aka a disappointment?

no its not actually based on The Bad Lieutenant really at all. Its a long weird story why they used the name, part of it was herzog the director thought it would be funny to have the name so long and dumb. i was so confused by the first half, especially when the bad louie is supposed to be fucking this doods girlfriend from an impossible angle it was fucking dumb and seeing a boom mic in the shot that i stopped and read some interviews about it. trust me its fucking entertainment

i read something on imdb that mentioned drug addiction, gambling and fucking nicholas cage so i was severely disheartened.

Yah I havent wanted to watch a cage film in a loong time, but I was multi-tasking and saw it on ninjavideo for some reason i knew it actually held some type of an experience worth witnessing

I really wish I would have saw this in a slightly packed theatre uncomfortably high, normal peoples reactions expecting a hollywood nicolas cage cop movie would be pretty funny to see.

I keep remembering the scene of him with the electric razor and laughing out loud. It's kind of awkward when I'm just out by myself and then suddenly burst out laughing.

saw this in cinema, in a film festival. i really liked it, but there was this guy sitting next to me, in his early 60s... he never even smiled, let alone loled, not even once!!! at one point i decided to ask him "sir, excuse me - how come you're not laughing?" - but he turned to his wife and said something (prolly something like "these stupid people laugh all the time), ruining the opportunity.

but seriously, he made such an impact on me, i was constantly thinking about how cool must it be to be so much into a character you watch, that you don't find some obviously hilarious sequences funny.

Its kind of weird especially when you get an extreme case of the lolz but In that scenario if other people aren't laughing at that scene their sense of humor=fail, your sense of humor=win.

hahaha Im sure he was a disgruntled old bastard that thought it was one of the most grizzled serious films the new millennium. Again your sense of humor=win, his sense of humor=figgity fail old man!

I watched this movie a couple of days ago and this is a movie made for Nicolas Cage. He's great at over-acting and I like it when he gets cast for that purpose, like in Wild at Heart for example. At first I was expecting a mediocre cop thriller/drama, especially when seeing the name Exzibit appear on the opening credits. But the flow of this movie was so wacky, those scenes with those reptiles was crazy and lasted way too long for a normal cop movie, so I figured I was watching something wacky. I admire Herzog for this, especially after the pretty straight forward Rescue Dawn. I'm starting to love this movie even more while thinking back about it. I should watch it again with a different mindset.

oh, and a side-lol @ Val Kilmer for, again, getting a part that anyone could've played.

Hmm, didn't realize this was a spoof. I'll have to check it out.

not a spoof per se, but you know... it's a cop movie by herzog, with nicolas cage in main role... it's bound to be special, isn't it?

I would call it a spoof, its quite self aware of his own insanity to an extreme point of conscious intention. I mean its possible for a reasonably intelligent person to see it and think it was just an unintentionally dumb movie if you they really don't pay attention. An aware human consciously reading into it and its pretty apparent to be a fucking intentionally nutty ass "spoof" if you will. The interviews with herzog about it make it pretty clear that he knew what he was doing.

Speaking of which, the original film's director, Abel Ferrara, has vowed to fight this project, and —

Wonderful, yes! Let him fight! He thinks I'm doing a remake.

 

Have you talked to him?

No. I have no idea who Abel Ferrara is. But let him fight the windmills, like Don Quixote.

 

Have you heard his comments at all? He says he hopes "these people die in Hell."

That's beautiful!

 

Do you relate to that passion?

No, because it's like theater thunder. It's like being backstage in the 19th century, with the machines that make thunder. It has nothing do with with his film. But let him rave and rant; it's good music in the background.

 

You did a remake before with Nosferatu, but —

It was not so much a remake as an homage to Murnau. But I don't feel like doing an homage to Abel Ferrara because I don't know what he did — I've never seen a film by him. I have no idea who he is. Is he Italian? Is he French? Who is he?

 

Oh, come on.

Maybe I could invite him to act in a movie! Except I don't know what he looks like.

lol

herzog is wonderful

nigga be crazy as hell

i can't wait to see this, even if it is clunky and raggedy, I'm very glad to hear it retains Herzog's touch. I love that man, seriously.

excellent film. I'm going to be doing the wheezy paahhh laugh for a long time.

God, that slut in your avatar--you know that she's trashy but those ham hock thighs and ass; one could just slide right in. If that's from a movie, do explain

it's a screencap from this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6Rg6xsULdo but there's even more of that character here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bgJowBr2QE

I want to watch this film with to see what they did with it. The trailer looked like trash, but with enough intelligence i think it could flip the cop genre on its ass and start fucking it doogy

Thats just hathathats mum filmed in the early 80's after giving birth to hat, his massive fucking head caused so much damage to her pussy she did that little video to get a little self esteem back, show the men of this world that she may be loose as a goose but she still has the moves.

Holy fuck--I just nabbed an acceptable screener and I was shitting it throughout the whole movie! The tight shots of iguanas! the dead alligator! Val Kilmer! The lines ("shitbird")! The ending!

i hear ya! and.. the return of the Lucky Crackpipe!

keep shooting him, his soul is still dancing

This was definitely one of the better movies I have seen recently. 9/10 for sure. I belly lol'ed so many fucking times (by myself no less) is was unreal. This movie restores +1 point for Hollywood, which is rare enough these days, but this... this was nothing short of spectacular. Seriously, from the opening scene, this movie had me. Despite it's unrealistic portrayals of hard drug use (I'm really picky about that shit. It seems no one ever does their research properly for movies regarding this), scenes involving such use were hilarious. Cage on Crack. Fuck me it's beautiful. What's with the Cage/Mendes pair up again? Seriously, how the fuck does bird head manage the hottest female in Hollywood? HOW?!?!?! Jennifer Jennifer Coolidge was fucking great too. Nice to see her showing some range. I think I may be strangely attracted to her. Brad Dourif is always ace. What's fucked up is, I didn't notice Fairuza Balk or Michael Shannon until the credits. Wtf? I must be blind/retarded, considering I had a crush on Balk, and thought Shannon was the brills in Bug. So. In conclusion, without giving anything away, I will say this: Watch this movie. If for some reason you don't like it, you shouldn't be here.
