You'll probably like 'em okay and not see the big deal either way, aside from a few okay scenes here or there. There's just, flat-out, not much to them. Julien has the biggest amount of "great scenes", like the ice skating to Oval and the "one-frame-at-a-time going-up-the-stairs" thing, or the "one-frame-at-a-time-with-weird-conversation-voicover" or about 3 Herzog scenes. Gummo has one good scene -- the little kids cursing out a rabbit boy -- and a cool soundtrack. Trash Humpers has a few laughs. Mister Lonely, as I already described... skydiving nuns, and jump-cut Michael Jackson dance. All these scenes are on youtube. Save yourself the trouble.
I suggest downloading these 4 random mindblowing movies instead:

Oh, btw, Giuseppe retired --
for real. He deleted ALL HIS MOVIES, ALL HIS BOOKS, AND ALL HIS CD'S off of his website today! He now has 2 cd's on there and that's it. Wow. So, I now own tons of collector's items, haha. No, they're not for sale.
honeymoon in vegas - 7/10
Surprisingly entertaining. James Caan is always great, anyone seen Thief? Masterpiece of a film, with a great Tangerine Dream soundtrack. One of these "hey, whoa, it's 3AM and this movie is on, I'm going to watch it" and you end up being surprised.
Anyone notice how consistent Cage is with his roles? Okay, at the top of my head, he has Honeymoon in Vegas, Leaving Las Vegas, and Snake Eyes, which takes places in Vegas. His Elvis infatuation is apparent in all those films, as well as Wild at Heart (Wild at Heart, of course, sharing some similarities with the classic "Red Rock West", which shares
tons of similarities with "Blood Simple" -- written and directed by the Coens, who directed Cage in "Raising Arizona"). Then, there's Matchstick Men, Weather Man, Family Man, Wicker Man -- 4 "man" roles. Then, he plays a superhero in Ghost Rider and Kick-Ass and was almost Superman (which would have been another "man" role!). He seems to enjoy choosing roles where the only point seems to be for him to act INSANE -- Deadfall, where he is almost unrecognizable as an insane gangster; Sonny, where he plays unrecognizable insane gangster Acid Yellow; Vampire's Kiss, where he is almost unrecognizable as a "Vampire" whose voice keeps becoming British for some weird reason; and Bad Lieutenant reboot where he just yells a bunch as an insane cop! Gonee in 60 Seconds, Kiss of Death, Wicker Man, Bad Lieutenant, Bangkok Dangerous, Astro Boy = all remakes or are based on something else (anime, whatever). I'm sure there's more similarities between the roles he chooses, feel free to chime in (besides" DUH UHH HE SUX IN ALL OF DEM LAWL")
