Seen it, Aguirre was better. Pointless **** would only include most of your comments. :D

just saw Outlander. vikings + aliens = :D

it was actually quite good. i was expecting cheese, but it turned out to be a warm, fresh brie topped with garden raspberries and served with a fresh loaf of dark rye. good to the end!

The Wild Blue Yonder (2005)

Really spellbinding film, I've seen it before and I enjoyed catching it on Veoh again. It's certainly not one of Herzog's more famous or acclaimed films, and the poster is misleading - the entire film comprises of pre-recorded footage edited and scored by Herzog (similar to Grizzly Man, which I've yet to see).

WBY takes the form of a documentary of sorts where footage of, say, a surreal diving expedition under polar ice, is purported to be a groups of astronauts surveying an alien world for potential terraforming. Throughout, the director encourages audience input and imagination to complete the illusion and draw the parallels; and if you don't go along with it the film can seem tongue-in-cheek.

The score crucially contributes to the film's atmosphere but it all hinges on the persuasive power of it's narrator and 'star', Brad Dourif, who can do no wrong as far as I'm aware. In all likeliness his presence here biased me, but the film has more to offer if you are in the mood.

Fans of Herzog, good ol' sci-fi storytelling and general weirdness combined with an ethereal soundtrack and bizarrely beautiful footage will appreciate. I'm sure some pillock would have issues with the budget, but then how the hell did you end up watching an obscure Werner Herzog docu-fantasy in the first place?

I really like this movie.
It's obviously no comparison to anything else done by Quentin Tarentino but it's still amazingly enjoyable.

:laughing: I loved this movie, and like 28 Days Later its because of those damn hippies.

Oh I watched that stone/drunk the other day with some people. I thought it was hilarious even if I didn't catch a word of the dialog...:D

Flight of the Phoenix - ***

Well made oldie starring James Stewart, Richard Attenborough and Peter Finch some men stranded in the sahara desert.

Sixth Sense - ***1/2

I know this is unpopular now, there's no denying how much of a one trick pony M. Night is, but this is an undeniably well made, creepy movie. The vomiting girl (who I just noticed is Mischa Barton from The OC) still freaks me right the **** out. It's not manipulative like his other films, and Joel Osment is really good.

Blazing Saddles - ***

Dated, but still pretty funny. Entire cast is great. But my favorite is Madeline Kahn, who hilariously parodies Marlene Dietrich, oh and she's really f*cking hot too.

brilliant film, the god-awful remake thankfully seems to have sunk without a trace. Anything with Dickie Attenborough gets my vote

Actually I didn't find it much believable that they would get together in the first place, I was very much rooting for him to get back with the girl because Keatons character was such an obnoxious biatch.

Today I watched Slumdog Millionaire and The Pursuit of Happyness. Both were really good.

But she was seventeen and had no personality.

Since when does not being a bitch translate to no personality?

I loved Keaton in Annie Hall, but she was just an arrogant snob in Manhattan, which is still a great movie IMO.

Based upon the memoirs of John McCarthy and Brian Kennan's kidnapping and imprisoning in the Lebanon in the 80's. A little stagey and budget restrictions don't help but it is very well played by the two main leads (Ian Hart and Linus Roache).

on Mondays, my wife has absolute control over what we watch. i suffered through about half of the Sex and the City movie before i went to bed. ugh.

but Tudsday is my day. i think i'll pick something with zombies and chainsaws to get back at her :)

Apocolypse Now



>>Actually more recently This is England. Great movie, definitely check it out.

Anybody see Milk? How was it?

disappointing but worth a look-in. The Harvey Milk documentary is meant to be better

I really loved it, so far it's my favorite film of 08.

The ultimate gay fantasia. Brad Davis is hot, Franco Nero is hot and that's a huge penis Davis is leaning against=required viewing for every homo...:|

LOL. Was that tower designed by the same architect who designed the castle in The Little Mermaid? :p:

Plannet Terror.

nice!

Great first half and then it kinda fell into soap opera land :( Yes I know it's the s/t pic.

This is a BAMF movie.

It really is. Its absolutely ridiculous and gindhouse-esque. It's pretty amazing to watch.:ar_15s:

I always wondered though, how does the chick with the machine gun leg get it to shoot? Plothole. (I know this is the essence of a grindhouse movie but still, it is bothersome.)

Yeah that really bothers me.
I try to ignore it though hahaha.

She does it with her mind.

Plothole closed.

Ah, of course, why didn't I think of that!

I always though that she used her hamstring as a mock trigger personally.

she has one mighty powerful thigh-flex then.

It's a bit funny, the same conversation about how she fires her gun just came up with some of the people I'm doing this winter ecology course with a few days ago. I'm able to ignore the plothole because I don't think the movie tries to be realistic at all .. Maybe it sticks to it's own realism, but if so, it's one where plotholes like that are allowed. ;)

The last film I saw was Aliens. Once again, it kicked ass. Sigourney Weaver is so good in the role of Ripley and the last scene where she fights the queen must be one of the more memorable moments in popular action film history.

Igby Goes Down and HurlyBurly are two of my favorite "older" movies. I just recently watched.....oh yeah, I haven't watched a movie in like 6 months

Intriguing to say the least. A little lengthy but the film's structure is excellent.

That's a fucking masterpiece man. Flawless. :|

Nothing is flawless. The day I find a film like that I will stop watching :( I did love the way it dealt with flashbacks and filled in details for us without it spoiling the overall feel. Also the DVD print I have is a matted 4:3 so the picture was elongated which annoyed the crap out of me. I never did see the Hollywood remake-it is supposed to be awful (surprise, surprise).

What's shocking is that it was made by the same guy...:(

Oh and I have the Criterion edition...

Definitely the most beautifully shot documentary Ive ever seen. The whole time watching I was just amazed by the beauty of Iceland, and of course Sigur Ros music is also amazing.

*cackles maniacally* :laughing:

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
I really love this movie. :tramp:

Holy fucking shit that movie is insane!
I didn't think anyone else knew about it.
One of my favorite trippy movies too.
