"Shut Up Little Man", which made me kind of nostalgic for those days of pre-YouTube underground obsessives trading tapes of prank calls and such.

I do nto reccomend "I Spit on Your Grave"
― The Cheerfull Turtle (Latham Green), Monday, 16 July 2012 20:09 (eleven years ago) link
I disagree, sir! It is totally worth watching, especially if you are into nihilistic exploitation with no redeeming social value whatsoever.

oh hell yeah fishing with john

transformers 3 actually kind of rules, it's like someone edited everything that usually sucks about bay down to about 10 minutes of the real film rather than hours
― fauxmarc, Wednesday, 18 July 2012 12:22 (eleven years ago) link
Wait, so the movie is only 10 minutes long?! That's awesome, and attention-span appropriate, given its target demo.

pretty girl standing in slow-mo + military vehicles taking off over the water while dramatic music plays was about 10 minutes ; the movie is like 2 and a half hours long but didn't drag

Absentia, which I've stanned for a few times on the post-2005 horror thread, is up on netflix now.

Transformers 2 is my fav of the series.

I mean 3. 2 is the worst.
Beginning of August brings a ton of espn 30 for 30 docs. I can finally catch up.

If you like the original Star Trek, I recommend Jason of Star Command. James Doohan is in it.

the doc about toynbee tiles is pretty entertaining -- resurrect dead, i think it's called?

i tried getting into star command but it was a bit painful
― fauxmarc, Sunday, 22 July 2012 21:54 (eleven years ago) link
Watched this the other day, better than I expected. Always hoped for a doc on the subject.

it was a bit painful
It's awful, but it's a kind of awful I enjoy

For those of you who enjoy British comedy, I see now that the show "The Comic Strip Presents..." is now streaming. As a teenage adamrl, this was like the height of subversive comedy for me and I look forward to rewatching it bathed in golden nostalgia. However, I also fear that it is now going to seem really dated and have a grating laugh track.

i will also rep for the toynbee tiles doc

Yeah it is good, gonna seek out the Chicago tiles.

I missed most of those 30 for 30 docs when they came out so I'm stoked as well. The few I have seen were really good.
