Damn Pan's Labyrinth was depressing
 
I'm feeling pretty somber about now.

Alex's Trip 07.18.2007 12:35 AM

It was.

But I liked it.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 07.18.2007 12:36 AM

It was beautiful. But I want someone to hold me now.

So falsely advertised and the fantasy scenes - the few that were there - were all spoiled in the ads and reviews. What's the big deal? Maybe a second viewing is what I "need".

In our dreams, yes.

I saw it on the same night as I did Children of Men (theater hopping is always fun) and I prefered Children of Men.

But Pan's Labyrinth was okay although I do agree that there wasn't as much fantasy as I expected or hoped for.

I don't really pay attention to advertisements.

children of men has more flash value, but it's ultimately less interesting and more predictable, yet-another dystopian fable with apocalyptic/religious overtones (baby jesus).

pan's labirynth is not "okay", it's **fucking wonderful.** and a true original.

I think both Pan's Labyrinth and Children of Men are both standouts from Latin American directors.

Vive Mexico.

si sen~or. the mexicans are kicking ass these days. add Babel for the trifecta.

Пятхъдесят Шест 07.18.2007 01:54 PM

Babel made me want to crawl into bed.

But I agree, I'm interested in seeing more from all three.
