dawn of the dead (orginal) - i'd seen it before but this time the chaos at the beginning in the tv studio seemed really amazing. uh, and then i got way too caught up in it all and had to leave halfway through b/c my nerves felt shot (it was at a bar. and i am sleep-deprived.)

before that though was 'I Walked with a Zombie' - I really loved it. kinda the opposite of dawn of the dead though. some crazy drumming and voodoo dancing too. and a guy in a suit who reminded us of Gob, srsly.

i'm sad now that i dl-ed the Butterfly Effect and didn't get to see alt endings :( still though, holy shit! i don't think i could've taken the wombicide anyway; i don't even know how this movie exists.

so i also watched The Lake House, which has many parallels to The Butterfly Effect: time weirdness, not-well-thought-out time-related paradoxes/issues, bad writing, bad acting by pretty people, unintentional (? at times i doubt this) hilarity.

starship troopers is awesome! borat = awesome!

i rented and watched 'running scared'. the billy crystal/gregory hines one (because of the michael mcdonald song 'sweet freedom'). it's really one of the strangest, weirdest movies i've ever seen. barely any plot, no structure, not that funny though it's not really trying to be funny, not much in the way of action, and features joe pantoliano in a role he clearly modeled after bill paxton's role in 'the terminator'. and there are at least three scenes where jimmy smits (as an evil drug dealer) is greeting someone by his car, sees billy and gregory coming at him, and then says, "ohhh no! cops!" and drives off. i have no idea what this movie was going for.

Peter Jackson's King Kong The Movie Based On The Movie King Kong(ungh)

― David R. (popshots75`), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 19:57 (nineteen years ago)

Peter Hewitt has done something magical.

It was unlike anything I've ever seen before or will ever see again. It's hard to even call Garfield: The Movie a movie because it questions and tramples over everything we expect when we go sit in front of that big screen, so much so that seeing the movie is exhausting and at times unpleasant. When a movie can make you feel something for real, when something on the screen can transfer over and hit you in the gut, that's what cinema can do at it's best and that's what Garfield: The Movie does and it does it in the most unconventional and powerful ways. Hewitt has truly made this an "experience". If you go into this movie with an open mind, put in the work it takes and try to let go of your conventions, you will feel changed after seeing it.

I'm not sure how long it's going to take critics and movie goers to realize what Hewitt has done here. I am still not fully aware of how powerful this movie really is. It's taken me more than a few days to even realize if I liked it or not. What I do know is if Hewitt can make something like this, a true masterpiece of film making, it is a goddamned shame he has been jerked around by studio after studio trying to get his movies made. It's sad to even imagine how many more amazing movies he could have made in his career if he had the backing he deserved.Some critics are saying that this is Hewitt's "fuck you" to the hollywood studio system and they're probably right. This was so completely far off from anything that has ever been inside or outside of the mainstream. We can only hope that Hewitt has enough left in him for a few more "fuck you's" like this one.

Thanks Peter.

I didn't dislike that part of A-Now, it just felt sort've...separate from the rest of the movie. This is hardly the first time though there have been sections of a Kubrick movie that functioned sort of as a "standalone" mini-narrative.

xpost haha I'm saving that (along with Nacho!) for the weekend w/ the boy (Peewee Herman does the voice of the "Navigator"!)

The Conversation is awesome. I love that weird party scene where they're having a dick-waving contest over who did the most elaborate surveillance. And the ending.

Rififi also had a crazy ending, wow. (I posted several days ago that I watched it but I didn't actually finish it until monday, was falling asleep the first time and I liked it enough that I didn't want to miss anything.)

― dmr (Renard), Wednesday, 8 November 2006 17:10 (nineteen years ago)

the plantation stuff in ANR is kinda cool in theory but i found it totally destroyed the movie's momentum when it was put back in... does not work

American Hardcore - it was bad. They couldn't figure out how to integrate music well (so you often get 10-second clips of Band X that you can't differentiate from any of the other bands), there's zero insight into the history of hardcore or its roots or people involved, etc.. Total waste of time. I thought it was odd that the Replacements and Hüsker Dü were mentioned, but never discussed, nor was the transition from hardcore to indie-rock (standard "then, around 1986 they all became hard rock/metal and that was the end").

That crappy Don Letts thing that spent ten minutes on hardcore was more in-depth.

painted veil looks like good in the graham greeny way – it looks like it lives in the neighborhood of david lean, somewhere between 'bridge on the river kwai' and 'passage to india' with something less of anglo humility thrown in. ed norton has a very powerful presence in the trailer: he projects brando in moreau and kinski in fitzcarreldo, though a more cultured and subtle version of both. friend who read the script claims to be blown away, too.

― rems (x Jeremy), Saturday, 11 November 2006 23:39 (nineteen years ago)

intriguing!

wait.. brando in MOREAU!?

― s1ocki (slutsky), Saturday, 11 November 2006 23:46 (nineteen years ago)

ed norton?

really?

― s1ocki (slutsky), Saturday, 11 November 2006 23:46 (nineteen years ago)

also pan's labyrinth is incredibly attractive, incredibly imaginative, and the story has a number of neat and novel twists and turns. still, i can't help feeling that i missed something... something in the way of depth? some necessary emotional substance? in one way it feels like a super-dreamy meditation on 'devil's backbone'; not exactly a retread but a fever dream of the same. or maybe it didn't quite sit right because it made me feel 'devil's backbone' (which i loved) was a working draft of PL and less complete in its own right. i need more time to really respond, axully: i think i might like PL more when i think about it.

for what it's worth (and only if this can be construed as an endorsement) it's like the 1000x better version of bros grimm.

― rems (x Jeremy), Saturday, 11 November 2006 23:47 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, Armond Armond Armond...

"“Boo!” Forest Whitaker says in The Last King of Scotland, the newest boogie man movie. This one purports to have a historical basis, showing how the late Ugandan dictator Idi Amin, charmed a gullible white medical student (James McAvoy) into being his personal physician and advisor. But the result is still another scary black man stereotype. How did Samuel L. Jackson let this role get away?

Whitaker’s Idi goes peek-a-boo when he organizes several servants to pose as body doubles in an attempt to foil any potential assassins. This ruse inadvertently points to the film industry’s multiplicity of black screen effigies who are either junkies, thieves, convicts, murders, rapists, liars, philanderers, etc. By scaring the daylights out of his white sidekick, Whitaker’s showcase comes off as little more than a super Training Day: King Kong Idi Amin."

fountain was pretty bad... some cool images, but i wouldn't even say it was fantastic-looking overall (dude's framing is wack). the story itself is basically a "love story"-style tearjerker (beautiful dying woman, handsome doctor husband who can do nothing to save her), with some space yoga and conquistador shit thrown in.

― jhoshea megafauna (scoopsnoodle), Thursday, 16 November 2006 17:19 (nineteen years ago)

What disappointed you?

i had a hard time staying interested in the film until the last 40 minutes or so, which were fantastic. the rest of it i found kind of silly, really (and yes, i know there's a huge element of farce), and with a few very notable exceptions (renoir as octave, the chambermaid, christine's niece) i thought the acting was poor. the actress playing christine was especially awful - she's supposed to be beautiful, captivating, and alluring yet the reality is a woman who looks about 50 and has all the charisma of a wet noodle.

-- Allyzay Eisenschefter

i think they're both repetitive writers (they both use the same phrases over and over again, moreso than any other critics i've read) and their reviews don't ever get specific or in-depth and if you remove a few names and titles from them, they're generic enough to apply to any film. in that respect i find them to be very similar. of course, peter travers is more of a quote whore and seems to waste little energy on negative reviews, whereas even armond white's positive reviews are filled with blind, incoherent contempt for those who don't share his viewpoint. they're both corrupted beyond the point that any rational person would ever listen to their opinions (which seem formed out of little other than a reaction to hype, in one way or another).

― gear (gear), Thursday, 16 November 2006 22:48 (nineteen years ago)

The Lead's Unacknowledged Moment Of Total Idiocy happened early in the movie too, when the mom high-tailed it from the cop (cuz she feared her spooky lesbonic vibe or something?) and drove at top speed through a gate so that she could take her adopted child (who's screaming in the seat beside her) to the closed-off town the kid's been having nightmares about. And why does the cop not show up again for several hours? I need to stop watching crap.

Population 436 (Durst decent enough as Barney Fife in The Lottery once you get over his presence in the movie)
Edison Force (Justin Timberlake tries to get the scoop about a Penguin-like John Heard from a constipated LL Cool J while Morgan Freeman does his best Bill Cosby and Kevin Spacey reads his fucking lines and dreams of the theatre.

As far as Bond films go, it was a winner. No stupid gadgets, and very light on the smug quips. Nu-Bond is ice-cold and Craig wears it well. Sexiest Bond to date; he's got a great ass, and it is quite apparent in some scenes that dude is pushing a serious basket. Like, woah.

it still has over-the-top monster-budget action sequences, exotic locations, foxy bond girls, a creepy villain with a facial scar, some spy intrigue, and a semi-adversarial relationship with spymaster judi dench.

it's good 007, in my opinion, but if you go in for the self-parody schtick, like invisible cars and bon mots uttered amidst explosions, your mileage may vary.

but la jetee is way more beautiful and poignant (and, well, an art film not a big-budget gilliam crazy movie)

my french book from college has the story with stills from the movie :)

don't let your love for la jetee ruin your love for 12 monkeys

― cutty (mcutt), Wednesday, 22 November 2006 02:23 (nineteen years ago)

would be fun to watch them back to back!

― zombierza (tehresa), Wednesday, 22 November 2006 02:29 (nineteen years ago)

i feel like that's some kind of aphorism, for life
but exactly, they are different things, both the love and the films

i thought i had 12 monkeys here and was going to do just that but i don't! (and i am also totally procrastinating on work)

i kinda have 12 monkeys memorized anyway though

Drew -- Apparently Rita Mae Brown wrote the first draft of the screenplay for Slumber Party Massacre!?! Subtext, whoa. This is according to IMDB.

Also, have you seen the sequel, in which an evil Fonz character enters the real world from dreams to terrorize a new set of girls with his song & dance routines before drilling them with his, uh, drill guitar?

Anyway, I just saw watched The Spanish Prisoner. Pretty good! Even if the performances were a little flat. GGGR remains my favorite Mamet, tho.

so it wasn't awesome (compared to Stop Making Sense, at least), but I heart Neil. STAYING HOME ON A TUESDAY NIGHT RULES

although, Chris Rock/9-11 wtf.
