oh, just the angle changes and that they had given the kids coloured building blocks, to play with, which, of course, wouldn't be in the right places. I hadn't really noticed, before.

RJG (RJG), Thursday, 19 August 2004 18:09 (nineteen years ago) link

Oh, yeah. The kids' blocks moving around and changing colors. Paulie's cigar does some weird things when the tiki bar guy has his sit-down about Tommy. The wine changes levels in the "Think I'm funny?" scene.

Even still...

I love the sit-down about tommy, too.

Tom you should play that movie as the back drop when you get married.

WHAT IF SCORSESE HAD DIRECTED PORN?

"After Whores"
"The Last Penetration of Christ"
"Coprophaging Bull"
"Assino"
"Gangbangs of New York"
"KuMdun"
"Cape Queer"
"Creamed Sheets"

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Thursday, 19 August 2004 18:46 (nineteen years ago) link

That is indeed. Dune seems to be handy for backdrops for things (I have one friend still insisting that a combination of Dune visuals and Dead Can Dance audio and LSD was the best high of her life, and really, who am I to gainsay her?)

i was at one wedding where, during the cutting of the cake, the father of the groom intoned, "the slow blade penetrates the shield..."

You are shitting me. Somebody hire this man for voiceovers.

dude was an ex-army colonel, too!

mookieproof (mookieproof), Thursday, 19 August 2004 18:50 (nineteen years ago) link

I know it's not done to laugh at one's own jokes, but I'm quite proud of myself for both "Coprophaging Bull" and "Creamed Sheets". Clearly, I've missed my calling.

Amateur!!!st stole my joke (Goodfellas II: The Goodfellating!).

Sharon Stone IS cocaine.

sexyDancer, Thursday, 19 August 2004 21:01 (nineteen years ago) link

she is fucking great in casino (my favourite scene: when she's talking to james woods on her wedding day and he's all "i'm looking at you...")

s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 19 August 2004 21:03 (nineteen years ago) link

wait wait wait scorsese had a cocaine period? that's distressing. he's like the world's biggest film nerd.


when he first spots stone--that's a moment man.

amateur!!!st (amateurist), Friday, 20 August 2004 02:42 (nineteen years ago) link

amateurist i woulda figured for sure you'd read that easy riders raging bulls book

cinniblount (James Blount), Friday, 20 August 2004 02:47 (nineteen years ago) link

Totally derailing here, but what the fuck's wrong with Gangs of New York? It's so big that whatever faults it may have are cancelled out by something truly great.

Michael Stuchbery (Mikey Bidness), Friday, 20 August 2004 02:50 (nineteen years ago) link

not enough pesci.

Harold Media (kenan), Friday, 20 August 2004 02:53 (nineteen years ago) link

too much cgi

cinniblount (James Blount), Friday, 20 August 2004 02:53 (nineteen years ago) link

that thing shoulda been just broadbent and daylewis rockin it.

cinniblount (James Blount), Friday, 20 August 2004 02:54 (nineteen years ago) link

blount i'm not generally too interested in the whole "film brat" generation/70s hollywood stuff, i mean compared to other film stuff. also the book sounds kind of gossipy, which would probably make me mad. but you can try to convince me otherwise!

god daniel day lewis is the fucking BOMB (that movie sucked tho)

amateur!!!st (amateurist), Friday, 20 August 2004 02:55 (nineteen years ago) link

He a had cocaine'n'Liza Minnelli period

tokyo rosemary (rosemary), Friday, 20 August 2004 02:56 (nineteen years ago) link

i met his daughter, now i feel bad for her if her dad had a fucking cocaine period when she was a small child.

amateur!!!st (amateurist), Friday, 20 August 2004 02:58 (nineteen years ago) link

haha i didn't actually read it (and i LOVE gossip)(i think part of me just though 'man i bet 80% of that book is about who margot kidder blew'), i rented the documentary tiein to it - cw101: excess (coke, egos) + success (lucas, spielberg) = end to 'auteur's era' in hollywood (gag). they followed peckinpah to the dreary end (instead of stopping with pat garrett which is how most people think), and didn't even bother to whisper 'cimino' once. 'salright, bob evans book better on both counts i'm sure.

scorsese's a total slut for girls who's dads he worshiped.

cinniblount (James Blount), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:00 (nineteen years ago) link

Everyone in ERRB seemed like a big jerk.

I learned about Scorsese's coke period from the Warhol Diaries, read that instead, amateurist!

tokyo rosemary (rosemary), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:04 (nineteen years ago) link

o god ditto to that - warhol diaries fantastic esp. all the 'basquiat didn't bathe again' stories.

cinniblount (James Blount), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:07 (nineteen years ago) link

My copy is MISSING and I wanna read it so bad.

Gear! (Gear!), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:10 (nineteen years ago) link

one of the bars i go to has a copy and if i go there and noone i know is there (or sometimes even if they are) i'll sit at the bar and read it for hours. that's the sort of thing that's adorable if you're 18 but sad as fuck if you're 28.

cinniblount (James Blount), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:10 (nineteen years ago) link

name three great scenes in gangs of new york that don't have daniel day-lewis in them

cinniblount (James Blount), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:12 (nineteen years ago) link

Even if the only great scenes were the ones with DDL you'd still have a kick ass movie considering he's onscreen as much (and possibly more?) than LD, but:

the opening march out to the battle, the final shot, and I liked the "Irish off the boat and into uniform" bit.

Gear! (Gear!), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:18 (nineteen years ago) link

o man that last one's too corny for the history channel even

cinniblount (James Blount), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:19 (nineteen years ago) link

i should say that gony is one of my favoritest books ever so i'm possibly being one of those geeks

cinniblount (James Blount), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:20 (nineteen years ago) link

The movie is infinitely better when DDL shows up, which is often fortunately.

Gear! (Gear!), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:21 (nineteen years ago) link

apparently this is "gony"

after hours was my favorite film ever in high school, I think I watched it about 20 times. I'm afraid I'd think it looked very dated these days and actively avoid it when I run across it on cable.

King of Comedy is very underrated!

The best works of Alfred Hitchcock look a bit dated now too --- does that mean they're any less brilliant?

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:37 (nineteen years ago) link

what hitchcock films look dated?

s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:48 (nineteen years ago) link

actually i don't think looking dated is neccessarily a bad thing, in fact it is often a good thing

s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:49 (nineteen years ago) link

silent movies are so dated!

s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:49 (nineteen years ago) link

anyway i just re-read easy riders raging bulls, god is that ever a fun book to read. you can read in a weekend, easy. lots of fun and many hilarious embarrassing spielberg stories.

s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:49 (nineteen years ago) link

also as much as i rep for goodfellas i think gangs of new york may be the worst fucking movie i have ever seen

actually i don't think looking dated is neccessarily a bad thing, in fact it is often a good thing

I would kill to have that mad 60's pad from Rope. Or any of the cars in Vertigo. Or a Farley Granger suit from Strangers on a Train. Dated? No. Crazy crazy stylish.

Harold Media (kenan), Friday, 20 August 2004 03:53 (nineteen years ago) link

i want the apartment from rear window if you know what i mean homina homina homina
