Yeah well if someone paid me $431 million for one of my craps, I'd be happy about the money, but it would'nt mean that the crap wasn't still crap.

I do not think wikipedia adjusts for inflation

I read the worldwide grosses for Dark Knight were around 600 million, but adjusted for the inflation and the lowly dollar that would not even put it in the top 20 of all time earned.

I think the same goes for Phantom Phuckface

You're sorta right. Phantom Menace barely made it in; Dark Knight didn't. Weird.

haha, thanks man/sorry man. We actually met on a smoke-break and started talking about 80's horror movies and it sort of just clicked from there.

When I first watched Rabbits it freaked me out... I'm really glad he worked it into Inland Empire. After some of the short films (The Darkened Room for example) that he had been working on, I was a bit worried that he had lost his touch. And it bothered me that he was making Inland on cheap digital cameras. But then I saw Inland and it just blew me away. Incredible.

doņa flor & her two husbands

cute, charming kinda, and maybe it was revolutionary when it came out in the 70s, but i found it lacking by today's standards. visions of sonia braga naked kept me going, but the structure of the story seemed to be mutilated eh. still, another one i was meaning to check out for a long time.

Out of Sight w/ Clooney and J. Lo circa 98. Not bad. Based on an Elmore Leonard novel.

DV sucks.

atsonicpark 01.13.2009 02:00 PM

!@#$%! 01.13.2009 02:01 PM

Digital Video? Yeah it does suck. But a few films have been good regardless of the poor medium. Inland Empire is a good example. I think Terror Firmer was shot on DV, wasn't it? Hell even Jason X looked better than most of the crap shot on DV.

atsonicpark 01.13.2009 02:05 PM

Also, my friend gave me the blind dead box set and I watched all of them last night:

 

tombs of the blind dead - 7/10


 

return of the evil dead - 8/10

 

ghost galleon - 5/10


 

night of the seagulls - 6/10
