I find that silence is just as important as sound in a film to me. Sometimes it helps to exemplify a particular mood and I think it's crucial in this one. It's been a long time since I watched The New York Ripper, but I could've sworn it started off similar to this one... a scene in the New York Harbor comes to mind. I want to rewatch some of his titles to refresh my memory. I definitely prefer him over Argento, despite acknowledging some of Argento's strengths over Fulci.

I still think Fulci had the best zombies in that era. Romero had the better ideas about them but most of the ones in Dawn and Day are just extras painted blue, told to walk slowly. Fulci's look properly disgusting. The only one that could compete on that level was Return of the Living Dead, another one of my faves. But the scene at the end of Fulci's one, when the zombies are crossing the Brooklyn Bridge, is in a league of its own. And yeah, who can't love that zombie vs shark moment?

Not sure how true that is but if it's accurate then it all makes sense to me.

100% agree. The first Hellraiser is one of those films that I think really needs remaking by a better director, albeit with the same cast. I know I'm in a massive minority with that, though.

This is my number one favourite film I've seen in the past 2 years, love it to death. I was captivated by the down to earth qualities and honesty, something just came across that smacked me over the head and lovestruck me with every facet of this film. The end is icing on the cake, a surreal feeling was evoked. The soundtrack done by French producer, Para One, is pure electronic bliss. Well known for being the second half of the production team along with Tacteel for the Big Dada signed French hip-hop group, TTC. Para breathes the precise sounds that the film needed and invigorates the plot of lust and love. Rewatched only three times, need to watch it more and buy the Blu-Ray and soundtrack.

took lunch time off & finally went to see AVENGERS, which was great!

it starts so-so and then it picks up speed and doesn't let go. great... everything! especially joss whedon's signature humor. lots of great lines.

i sure am glad i stayed until the very last minute of the very last credits as i usually do--most people left and missed out on the laughs. (if you haven't seen it yet, stay till the very end).

can't complain about anything in that movie. okay, maybe the beginning was a little slow and obvious, but hey, not everyone has seen every preceding movie, so it was a required intro.

*** SPOILER ALERT ***






and then the whole attacking force had very little strategic sense shooting taxicabs and coffee shops and office workers, the dolts... ha ha ha... but that's usual action movie fare, and it's therefore forgivable







****SPOILER END*****

scarlett was hot and robert downey was great and everyone was great really, the whole cast, great ensemble.

anyway, good times! and i sure am glad i watched it on 2D cuz those fast moving action scenes would have been headachy as fuck with the glasses on

River's Edge

I didn't like this when it came out, probably because I wanted so desperately to love it. The less you demand from it, though, the better it gets. Crispin Glover is excellent, in a Crispin Glover kind of way.

and here is why:

i saw the batman trailer @ the movies yesterday and i wasn't too impressed, but i *do* trust christopher nolan since the day i saw memento. i believe he'll deliver.

what he won't be able to match though is joss whedon's great dialogue and sense of humor. sorry but no.

what that trailer shows is fantastic cinematography and extraordinary effects---but in terms of characters and story, it gets too heavy for cartoon characters and it gets ridiculous, so it's hard for me to take it seriously sometimes. whedon keeps the level of irony just right. also, scarlett >>> hathaway.

Nolan's entire approach is very original, and takes those "cartoon characters" and portrays them as if they were in our world. I believe that while Avengers is a pretty fun movie, The Batman stuff has entertained me in more ways than just corny one liners and fast paced action. I think it'll tell a much better story and from the looks of it, this one is going to have a very compelling atmosphere too. I've noticed that Nolan has really given all three of his trilogy a different mood. Just watch the first two and see how different they both look. I think this one will be what I've been looking for... but I'm kind of overrating it myself since I haven't even seen it! but yeah... all due respect to joss whedon (cabin in the woods really was great), but in this category, he just doesn't stand a chance against Christopher Nolan.

I agree about Scarlett btw

yeah it doesn't need to be a comedy but with certain subjects (e.g., grown men wearing capes) it's sometimes good to keep a twinkle in the eye and not go all-method. which reminds me how much more fun it is to watch RDJ than hearing douchebaggy christian bale scream at the crew.

this also relates to another trailer i saw yesterday, and that was spiderman's-- i'm glad sad-looking tobey maguire is no longer playing peter parker. the new one seems to be more fun.

anyway, CORNY ONE-LINERS? no you didn't. but it's okay. from what i could tell from the trailer, it's catwoman's job to deliver them in the new batman.

re: nolan's batman, i really, REALLY liked the first one of the trilogy. it totally blew my mind. reason was that i went there expecting nothing and i got a great fucking plot and characters and all. so it was a great surprise. dark night was overhyped cuz it featured a dead man walking, and it relied a lot on "cheesy effects" (my answer to "corny one-liners" lol), and so while it was alright, it let me down a little, and it felt it was more stereotyped compared to the first one.

i'm going to watch the next batman of course and i hope it's good but i'm not willing to praise it or declare winners until i watch the whole of it myself.

I totally agree. It's a difficult line, though. I think it's possible to treat superheroes with a sense of humour without the whole turning into flat-out comedy (although I though it worked with Iron Man). But I equally don't like it when the whole thing gets a bit too serious, either (Watchmen). Part of why I think Keaton was such a good Batman was cos I think he got that balance just right.
