europa report was good, once you get past the stock characters and that terrible australian woman from the first season of in treatment.

The Source Family is good fun if you're into documentaries about creepy 1970's cults.

yeah i liked that one! holly hunter is kind of amazing in it.

we're watching that attenborough Life of Birds series now. Birds are amazing.
― tylerw, Tuesday, 27 May 2014 15:43 (ten years ago) link
fucking birds, man! Tell me about it! I've been obsessed with noticing them and their doings since I was a little kid. They're probably the most intense animal life on earth in terms of being like symbols/aliens/robots/living art/super simple brutes all at once. Birds!
― Khamma chameleon (Jon Lewis), Tuesday, 27 May 2014 16:03 (ten years ago) link
yes!thoughts I had while watching:- birds really do not give a fuck!- are there any birds who are just not good at being birds? - birds are perfect!

See i prefer the mammals.

idk i have sometimes thought the killdeer was kind of an imbecile for building its nest right on the ground in the open. That's the only example I can think of rn though.

Museum Hours, which I'm excited to finally see
Three that are among my favorite films of the past year or two:LeviathanChild's PoseI Used To Be Darker
and Escape From Tomorrow, which is terrible but maybe worth skimming just for shits and giggles. maybe not honestly.

oh i used to be darker was good? huh
― schlump, Thursday, 29 May 2014 15:15 (ten years ago) link
leviathan is honestly way more of a theater experience i think
― socki (s1ocki), Thursday, 29 May 2014 15:17 (ten years ago) link
ok fine i wont watch it
― °ㅇ๐ْ ° (gr8080), Thursday, 29 May 2014 15:18 (ten years ago) link
i'm gonna try small screen leviathan
I thought I Used to Be Darker was a very honest look at adult working musicians... i think it'll help if you're a fan of Palace as that's who the lead is.

recently bought a proper tv to replace our shitty old crt and leviathan was one of the first movies i watched on it. it was incredible!
― wmlynch, Thursday, 29 May 2014 18:30 (ten years ago) link
oh no man you gotta watch it on CRT
― socki (s1ocki), Thursday, 29 May 2014 18:34 (ten years ago) link
watched it a 2nd time just spinning the dvd in the sun.
― wmlynch, Thursday, 29 May 2014 18:35 (ten years ago) link
i can kinda relate to needing to see leviathan on a big screen,but it's more so you can zone out in harmony with the film rather than because you need to cower at its magnificance, imo. it's a really spacey film, kinda arrhythmic & lulling.
― schlump, Thursday, 29 May 2014 18:54 (ten years ago) link
its spacey like k-pax
― socki (s1ocki), Thursday, 29 May 2014 19:00 (ten years ago) link

"The Bride" - extremely odd, unhurried New Romantic take on the bride of Frankenstein with Sting as the doctor, fun bit parts from alexei sayle and a young Timothy Spall, one of the little people from time bandits in a focal role. A damned thing.
