I got a kick out of the guy who returned to the series after 30 years to promote his band.

i finally watched a cabin in the woods. what took me so long? that was fun. better late than never. trying samsara now with some silver haze. its cool in that tripped out national geographic way. the music is corny though. they should have paid someone to write a cool electronic score for it. old ruins do not have to have the same old ambient world music playing in honor of their oldness. i want to see old stuff with micro krautbeats in the background. did anyone see this at like an imax place? that would be far out. i just wish my t.v. were bigger.

uh oh some worldbeat action. GR8eeee!!! who is that dude who puts the make-up on and goes nuts with straw and becomes a scarecrow. that guy is nuts. wow.

why do people always have to speed up factory assembly lines when they put them in documentaries? i've seen super-speed assembly lines my whole life on t.v. and movies. maybe it would be soothing to watch an assembly line at normal speed. give it a chance.

scott seward, Saturday, 31 August 2013 03:49 (ten years ago) link

scott, you want "How It's Made" for that (which is on Netflix!)

i too went to college (silby), Saturday, 31 August 2013 04:28 (ten years ago) link

lots of normal-speed production processes

"the fall" is so depressing and good

man real talk

oh believe me i have seen plenty how it's made episodes. cyrus is a fan. michael stearns was the music guy on this. on samsara. they should have let him do all the music though. he's an electronic pioneer.

scott seward, Saturday, 31 August 2013 04:38 (ten years ago) link

and lisa gerrard did stuff for this of course. i feel bad cuz i love DCD but she is just kind of a trademark of quality now that is almost anonymous.

Watching "Dredd". Not sure why. It sucks much less than i expected. So far.

waterface down (jjjusten), Saturday, 31 August 2013 05:10 (ten years ago) link

dude that movie is awesome did you not read what we said

btw I love the dredd comics and it is much truer to them and made by britishes

space is deep (mh), Saturday, 31 August 2013 05:28 (ten years ago) link

Also, it has Lena Headey who is great, even in questionable enterprises.

space is deep (mh), Saturday, 31 August 2013 05:29 (ten years ago) link

Yeah this is honestly super badass

waterface down (jjjusten), Saturday, 31 August 2013 05:35 (ten years ago) link

i will watch that tomorrow. i missed the talk of goodness.

scott seward, Saturday, 31 August 2013 05:41 (ten years ago) link

:)

Dredd definitely my favourite comic book movie of the last few years. (dislaimer: 2000ad is about the only non-kid comic I ever bought)

i want to watch the Solomon Kane movie but i'm afraid it's going to blow
so instead, i am watching more DS9.

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Saturday, 31 August 2013 08:26 (ten years ago) link

It does blow, but you know you're gonna watch it. Just get it over with.

i love the Dredd movie!

in retrospect, i don't think the silver haze was the best pairing for Samsara. made me too peppy and took me out of the film. i'm getting some kandahar today and i think that would made a much better match:

"If you have just sniffed plants with strong candy-sweet aromas, then Kandahar will not seem sweet by comparison. However, on its own, this variety captures the complexity of a street bazaar with sour-sweet fragrances that combine ripe fruit and dry forest muskiness. Once cured, the buds are nice tight nuggets with a woodsy and nutty taste, and a hint of sandalwood. As they are burned, they get the pleasantly warm fragrance of toasted nuts. The high settles deep in the body with potential for couchlock intensity. Down tempo music, television, or other undemanding yet sensory activities will pair well with Kandahar’s sedating qualities. It’s all good – sit back, soak it in, and enjoy the satisfying sense of relaxation."

i mean if you are posting on the internet during a 70mm new age visual epic you are doing something wrong. i really gotta get a bigger t.v. too.

scott seward, Saturday, 31 August 2013 15:44 (ten years ago) link

"Your Queue" is now "My List" which is sad b/c "queue" is a good word and Netflix is pretty much the only place most Americans get to use it.

potatoes-in-law (Je55e), Saturday, 31 August 2013 16:45 (ten years ago) link

really enjoyed Dredd. that is some movie. the slo-mo stuff was beautiful too. wasn't expecting that.

scott seward, Sunday, 1 September 2013 13:40 (ten years ago) link

plus, suitably Statham-esque.

scott seward, Sunday, 1 September 2013 14:42 (ten years ago) link

as far as i can see the director had never directed anything like that either. mostly british t.v. stuff. pretty impressive. never seen the other movies he's done. vantage point and endgame.

scott seward, Sunday, 1 September 2013 14:46 (ten years ago) link

i did!! it was way better that way compared to when i re-screened on my laptop a few days ago... even the music :-\

watched Dredd last night too and also liked it well enough. I appreciated that it didn't try too hard and just focused on a basic story. Plus, we didn't get subjected to Judge Dredd's backstory or psychological motivation. He's just kind of an angry badass and that's it.

Moodles, Sunday, 1 September 2013 15:29 (ten years ago) link

yeah I dug Dredd a lot! felt a bit closer to the comic (comic was a lot funnier in a dry-wit kinda way though). I thought Urban made a really good Dredd. .

he did. he had the scowl down that's for sure.

scott seward, Sunday, 1 September 2013 16:25 (ten years ago) link

i haven't read those comics since i was a kid. i used to buy the 2000 AD comics on newsprint. that's how old i am.

scott seward, Sunday, 1 September 2013 16:28 (ten years ago) link

i was super-into 2000 AD in high school -- one of the few comics I could buy in my tiny hometown.

reaaaaaaaaally enjoyed dredd, but vantage point is pretty awful. dunno where this one came from, but he seemed to really "get" the material.

There Will Be Blood is streaming. i might have to watch that. i like DDL but i'm just not a fan of PTA. i know people love that movie.

scott seward, Monday, 2 September 2013 16:15 (ten years ago) link

scott seward, Monday, 2 September 2013 16:21 (ten years ago) link
