Maybe I'm too "positive" or have been lucky enough to choose flicks I dug.


i did walk out of pasolini's "the gospel according to st mathew"

it was dull as fuck, and it was the same type of movie i had grown up watching on good friday, year after year, when they cut off the tv service and gave you religious programming, and yeah sure it was pasolini but i fucking knew where the movie was going, and jeezus (no pun intended), i had no patience to stay.

I walked out of Angels and Insects because it was such an insufferable sap-fest.

Oh, and What Dreams May Come for the same reason. I just went to that because I thought it might e kind of surreal and it was at the cheap theater in my neighborhood. I should have known to stay away because Robin Williams was in it.

If anyone has watched White Noise, could they please explain the ending of this movie to me? It was on tv last night and it didn't make sense.

i walked out of the film version of mamet's oleanna (with william h. macy) and i hadn't even paid to get in... i'd got free passes. i like the play, and macy was awesome as usual, but it couldn't make up for the female lead's absolute dead as wood acting. at the end of the first act when she says the line "but... i'm bad!" some flamboyant queer in the back shouted out "you're not just bad, honey... you're TERRIBLE!" the entire theatre bust out laughing in implied agreement. i took that as my cue to exit theatre rear.

random trivia (i've said this before):

that last motel where shit goes down (the one with the pool) is less than 1/2 mile from my house.

a brilliant portait of a region torn by war. at times hilarious at times darkly disturbing. part gangster movie, part love story and all political commentary...

August Rush - not for the lactose intolerant.

So, I guess he's not doing a Jack Nicholson impression in this flick, eh?

Rob Instigator 03.18.2008 09:38 AM

worst line ever (of course it is said by Drew Barrymore)

in the movie where she played Leonardo Da Vinci's romantic interest when he was really old

"But Maestro, if a bird fals in love with a fish, where will they live?"

just imagine it. JUST IMAGINE THE HORROR

Not at all, he doesn't look like himself, he doesn't even sound like himself, it's crazy.

Sounds quite horrible, although I believe the answer would have to be somewhere near a fjord.

Drew Barrymore hasn't done anything really good since E.T.

Rob Instigator 03.18.2008 10:18 AM

fjord! hilarious!

Oh yes, that movie was heavy. I reckon if you liked that, check out "Black Cat White Cat" by Kusturica - a lot ligter and more amusing, however still pretty interesting.
