The FUCK is this? On the upside... This kinda shit makes me realize that I could actually make money from music, because I'm like 5000 times better than this. ..."TO THE BASEMENT!"

Really? The book was dogshit.

The Taking of Deborah Logan - Someone mentioned it in this thread, nice one as it was great fun if you didn't think about it (why do they never turn on the lights?) too much.

Mysterious Skin - 10/10

Had to think about this one, it's hard to make a clear opinion about it because it's so unbelievably graphic and descriptive of the rape of children and teenage boys. I think ultimately though what makes it work is it's directness and carefully observed character stuff - the kid who believes he was abducted by aliens was incredibly well played.

Gregg Araki's stuff can be incredibly disconcerting, but then he'll hit you with a stoner comedy.

the Teen Apocalypse Trilogy was some of his most brilliant and bizarre stuff; Totally Fucked Up/The Doom Generation/Nowhere.

Bond was boring and stupid. Saw it in Bristol. It will make oodles of money already broke a bunch of UK box office records

thx Rubin will check them out

Glad I chose against that one then - is Skyfall worth the time?

It's way better than this one but they're all too long

Also that's cool about Eva 3.33333 but I found the first two vastly inferior to the originals

More than anything is just like a really good bluray transfer of the originals. That original jp shinji screaming can't be topped

do they reference Quantum at all in this flick? from the trailers it seemed as if Christoph Waltz was in control of them too.

Fantastic Four - not sure what all the fuss was about here, not saying it was a great film or anything, but it's no worse than most of the other superhero nonsense that's out there. in fact, the first hour or so was actually pretty good, the ending was pretty rushed and unsatisfying though.

Naked Lunch and Videodrome.

both quite good. going to watch The Fly next

^ Scannerzzzzz

some of the newer stuff is pretty good too, I really like A History Of Violence and Eastern Promises.

The Lobster - really good. Nice weird/surreal and deadpan tone. Very funny in places and then incredibly dark in others.

A tiny bit too long but then these kinda arty films always are.

There's a very idm/watmm scene about three quarters of the way through. l won't spoil it.

lol yeah, that's the bit. In particular when they're all lone raving with walkmans in the woods

 

 

Zatoichi

Amazing direction, stylish as hell. Good shit.

Out Of Furnance 7,5/10

Have to say I quite enjoyed this one. Don't really get why it got mediocre reviews. Solid and entertaining movie.

Yeah, nice little dance number as well.

Edit: Zatoichi that is.
