I'm the only person I know that's heard of it around here! haha.

My next statement may be depressing for some, so dont listen. But I remember it from when I was a little kid and forgot about it and rewatched it earlier this year when I saw it on tv and fell in love again. Also I realize the type of art I like and the world I see is totally based off of that movie, I guess it always stuck with me in my subconcsience. This was not made to make you feel old! :-(

im almost 23 tho, so I must have saw it when I was like...4 or 5 or something...I saw it on tv I think when I was younger so it must have been a few years after it came out.

I saw this a couple of months ago and thoroughly enjoyed it.
An intriguing film about something I knew little of.
Good performance by Karl Markovics, who's better known for his tv appearances.

yeah, i thoroughly enjoyed the moral complexity of the character. he was really awesome and carried the movie with him i think. ive never seen him before so that helped i suppose.

fucking brilliant

gmku 06.06.2008 01:56 PM

The Professional.

Gary Oldham kicks ass.

gualbert 06.06.2008 02:02 PM

I've watched A Royal Scandal , by Lubitsch ( on youtube ) .
Very funny.

Oldham?

Pookie 06.06.2008 06:04 PM

Saw this at last. Definitely Tim Burton's best for a long while, and Depp is even good in it.
Really great film.

I just finished watching Little Children with Kate Winslet and Patrick Wilson.

It's kind of a strange movie, but I liked it in the end.

It was a little long though, but I might just need a smoke.

Everyneurotic 06.06.2008 09:44 PM

ok, spookie just lost all his credibility here.

at least for me.

EMMAh 06.06.2008 10:10 PM

Because of Sweeney Todd?

Everyneurotic 06.06.2008 10:24 PM

yep.

EMMAh 06.06.2008 10:29 PM

That's funny.

Everyneurotic 06.06.2008 10:37 PM

yeah, it is.

1) Nice to know I had some to begin with.

2) It's a great film. So I'm afraid I'm going to have to give you one of these: :p .

fucking great movie

kate winslet was awesome in it

you'll "get it" more after you've lived with someone for a while or you've reached "a certain age" or whatevarr.

in the book, the character is this chick who in college falls in love with a woman, then graduates, doesn't know what to do, works at starbucks for a while, and one day her ex-lover shows up married to some fucking doctor, then she goes into a graduate program and she kinda sucks at it-- then she meets this guy who is lots older than her & goes into this maternity lifestyle from hell.

and then her husband who is supposed to be on a business trip is actually on some kind of cruise with slutty kay. throwing money at her (not he alone but with other people).

but anyway, i never finished the book! ha ha. got sidetrack & what not.

still, the movie ruled. you'll see in a few years.

davenotdead 06.07.2008 10:57 AM

yeah i really liked that film. very well done

Lamont Cranston 06.07.2008 11:33 AM

The Company of Wolves, it was rather unusual...

Silent Dan Speaks 06.07.2008 03:20 PM

Lars and the Real Girl, I loved it.

A fairytale horror with beautiful sets, great special effects and werewolves.
What more could you ask for?

Bollocks_to_Pop 06.08.2008 02:20 AM

La Dolce Vita. Loved it.

A decent plot :D?

not herzog's best but still brilliant

Derek 06.08.2008 01:30 PM

Rabid

Definitely a lesser work of Cronenberg's, not very good but I did enjoy the whole atmosphere of it.

Shivers was better.

Torn Curtain 06.08.2008 01:56 PM

Amadeus.

Liked it (even if facts are a bit distorted).

o'connor 06.08.2008 05:20 PM

i saw teh strangers a few nights ago, and i gotta say... that is one of the absolute WORST movies i've ever seen in my life. there's not really much else to say about it. it was fucking horrible.

the facts are altered, but the story/film is engrossing!

Sonic Youth 37 06.09.2008 12:56 PM

Amadeus is a fucking classic movie. I'd never saw it until I bought a box of 20 or so random VHS tapes off eBay and I fell into it right off.

Last one:
Fast Times At Ridgemont High, actually this is first time I've watched it all the way through.

!@#$%! 06.09.2008 01:00 PM

 


neurotic self-obsessed new yorker points camera at herself, but redeems herself by pointing it at women around the globe as well-- and that's where this becomes brilliant stuff.

heh heh - a friend of mine was one of the assitant editors on that flick

DeadDiscoDildo 06.09.2008 01:05 PM

yea I dont know why I was semi-interested in seeing the strangers, so the general consensus is fuck it? dont waste yr money?

i wanted to strangle jennifer fox many times while watching this (narcissism and teenage stupidity in a middle-aged woman are irritating), but she does a great job after all, redeems herself so to speak.

so what does your friend say? did she/he enjoy working on this or what?

Rob Instigator 06.09.2008 01:46 PM

yeah, my girlfriend watched that thing, and I caughtmaybe an hour of it. I just could not stand so much navel gazing from a self-absorbed 40 year old. I really really could give a fuck.

Rob Instigator 06.09.2008 02:39 PM

watched this again yesterday
 


I love this movie. for sheer filmmaking ability, it is tarantino's best IMO.
