I don't think I can watch those again.

Haven't watched it yet, but Shut Up, Little Man! popped up fairly recently. If you're familiar with that utterance, the documentary is apparently exactly what you think it is.

Today's Watch Instantly Pro tip: avoid movies with awesome VHS box art that were made in 1987.

many xposts: how are you managing to watch standoff on instant play? it says it's not available.
― just1n3, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 03:05 (twelve years ago) link
haha, i'm not, it's on hulu. but i did look it up first on netflix so that my post wouldn't be off topic! guess i should have done more fact-checking.

Watched the one about Paul McCartney being dead today. Wow, it's hilarious and badly made. Pretty much the complete PID compendium, with plenty of 'clues' I had never heard of. Also the fake Paul is referred to as Faul, and there's a George Harrison interview at the end where they overdubbed it to sound like he's says "Faul".

Also, for some reason they think Rubber Soul was released in 1966. Also, they went to India to see if the Maharishi could find Paul's spirit and make it enter Faul's body. Lol

― lag∞n, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 04:19 (twelve years ago) link
The next one is apparently coming in May. I'm looking very forward to it (just watched the rest a month or so ago). I do wonder how many of the participants are holding fast to their stated refusal to do further installments.

xp Look, I love terrible movies, but man, 1987 was a particularly foul vintage.

No, it's good! Esp if you like slow movies with lots of bonnets.

Oh, you should probably watch The Brood next, then.

^^^^yes
really looking forward to pt. 2!

THE BROOD IS SO GOOD!!!
Love that movie.
― Laura Lucy Lynn (La Lechera), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 03:58 (twelve years ago) link
DAGON expires tomorrow. I liked it a lot. Though everyone will have their own idea of what a Lovecraft movie should be like. I thought its degenerates were wonderful.

started watching murder by decree last night, gotta finish it tonight, expires 3/15. here is where I once again observe that bob clark has a weird filmography.

Haha, I did the exact same! Looking forward to finishing it tonight.
Impossible to watch it with pre-Alan Moore eyes, of course...
― Axolotl with an Atlatl (Jon Lewis), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 17:50 (twelve years ago) link
lol
anybody want to recommend one of those melvilles?
― diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 17:51 (twelve years ago) link
you cant really go wrong
― max, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 17:52 (twelve years ago) link
i guess army of shadows is the 'famous'/'best' one? i dont know what people say about melville tho. all three are dynamite imo.
― max, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 17:53 (twelve years ago) link
weird, I always think of army of shadows as one of his least-known, it was never released in the US and languished in obscurity for decades!
― diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 17:57 (twelve years ago) link
Army and Cercle are both great, but pretty different.
― Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 17:58 (twelve years ago) link
i prefer le cercle rouge but other folks seem to prefer army of shadows. both are excellent choices.
(another melville film - le doulos -- will expire on April 1st, BTW)
― kurwa mać (Polish for "long life") (Eisbaer), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 17:59 (twelve years ago) link
hmm maybe i just think that b/c it was a big deal when it got released on dvd
― max, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 18:10 (twelve years ago) link
bob le flambeur is sort of a precursor to Godard and the whole French New Wave thing ... so if that's your thing and you can only squeeze in one Melville film today, that would be the one to watch. (the others are much more sedate cinematographically.)
― kurwa mać (Polish for "long life") (Eisbaer), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 18:15 (twelve years ago) link
yeah army of shadows was "rediscovered" and had a theatrical run so there was a lot of press at the time
hmm I'm a big godard fan so maybe in the interest of science I will go w/ bob
― diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 18:49 (twelve years ago) link
"at the time" being 2006
