giboyojimbo (gbx), Monday, 19 February 2007 05:41 (seventeen years ago) link

Caught screenings of 'La Mama et La Putain' (in the same ballpark as 'the dreamers'(?) but 100x better) and 'Xala'.

the SHUT THE FUCK UP Disney Frog promo backwards and upside down - yes, backwards and upside down

waht

nklshs (nklshs), Monday, 19 February 2007 14:19 (seventeen years ago) link

Dudes in the theatre screwed up their "shut off yr damn cell phones" promo (currently featuring frogs singing this shit to the tune of "Heard it Through the Grapevine") - it was played a) backwards (in a Twin Peaks dwarf style) and b) upside down (in a pineapple cake style). ROFLs were had.

Also this weekend - after Breach was finished, & the credits were rolling, the elderly female folk a row behind me told me to SIDDOWN as I was waiting to leave. Not sure if I was impressed they cared enough to watch the credits, or annoyed because IT WAS THE CREDITS LADY.

Oh, forgot!

* Saw 2 - "smart" "thriller" I enjoyed immensely because I like seeing people getting brained w/ nail-covered baseball bat and/or taken out by flesh-eating disease, especially if they're from 7th Heaven.

Okay why don't all movie theaturs remix their turn off cellphones thing? That sounds incredible.

Was Black Snake Moan as bizarre/awful as the trailer makes it look?

milo (milo), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 05:28 (seventeen years ago) link

oh man gear was right the hidden ruled ruled ruled and is the great lost l.a. cult film of the '80s. i'd totally show it in a double feature with repo man.

ROBOT JOX.

Wanted to see this so bad when I was a kid. Dreadful stuff. Contains absolutely 0% peril. There's a hilarious overlong scene that makes a point about showing Achilles parking his hover car, obviously intended solely for the purpose of revealing his rather nifty and futuristic automatic central-locking key, except its the size of a portable radio, complete with a two foot antenna. And the main chick's stunts weres so plainly performed by a muscley dude without the slightest attempt to conceal it. Another Charles Band winner! CRASH AND BURN!!!

Wha bout To Live and Die In L.A.? William Petersen? Willem Dafoe? L.A.? Living AND dying? Come on!

(I haven't seen it, tho.)

David RER (Frank Fiore), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 14:04 (seventeen years ago) link

Dave I woulda tolju to SIDDOWN as well! I'm esp interested in the music credits usu, and NEVER leave til they over.

The Butcher Boy is prolly Neil Jordan's best movie.

I'm gonna skip insanely late White Dog in fave of Peter Whitehead's The Fall.

anyway:

The Decomposition of the Soul
Tristram Shandy: AC&BS
All the Real Girls
Play It As It Lays
Tout va Bien (awesome supermarket scene)
Letter to Jane
Colossal Youth
An Affair of Love
The Painted Veil (first half OK, second crap despite Diana Rigg as old nun)

Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 14:28 (seventeen years ago) link

haha I've watched Robot Jox 3 times, my life is lame.

nklshs (nklshs), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 14:33 (seventeen years ago) link

OK, fine, old folks want credits, I get it, but plz account for folks that are standing & waiting for their slowass rowmates to exit stage left.

David RER (Frank Fiore), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 14:47 (seventeen years ago) link

suggest u stay for credits too, or sit til u can akshully exit (I've been staying thru the credits since I was 15)

I remember To Live and Die in LA being on TV late one night. I remember Wang Chung and everybody dying.

TLADILA is great

Inland Empire was the first time I've stayed and watched all the credits in years and years. I left Satantango before they were done even, but I wanted those bells resonating in my mind for the rest of what little was left of the day.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 15:45 (seventeen years ago) link

there's a huge black snake moan poster in my subway station: a pic of ricci in an upper corner, beaten with chain around her waist, giving the camera a feverish, "please rape me" look; huge picture of wild-eyed s. jackson, sweating bullets in his undershirt and brandishing a length of the same chain. tagline: everything is hotter down south.

i really want to deface it, but it's near the booth.

Lauren (lauren), Tuesday, 20 February 2007 15:51 (seventeen years ago) link

oh yeah, last night two women BROUGHT DINNER to The Painted Veil and unwrapped it during the trailers. Thai, it looked and smelled like. I got up and moved. Is this standard Living Room Syndrome now?

s1ocki, I find colossal youth hard to dismiss and I understand the length is part of the agenda, but it just didn't work real well on me. Wasn't too bored tho.

city of ghosts - seen it before, not a great move, just wanted to look at cambodia.

i knew it would be boring! b/c the trailer tried to make it look so exciting, but it's really just a guy and a girl and his paranoia, right?
