I thought the kids in School of Rock were well-cast and written, so there.

sexyDancer (sexyDancer), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:32 (seventeen years ago) link

Even the gay kid?

milo (milo), Thursday, 7 December 2006 23:17 (seventeen years ago) link

2005 was pretty good for Amerikkkan film. Brokeback, Good Night and Good Luck (best thing about DVD: you can fast forward through the jazz interludes), Wedding Crashers, Devil's Rejects, The Constant Gardener (honorary American), Domino.

;)

thank you for smoking wasn't so bad! i liked the acting, the writing was decent if not necessarily inspired, it did drag in parts but hey. (only thing is that i feel like having a cigarette! which i'm sure i'd get bored of after 2 puffs anyway.)

really really really want to see inland empire. it's not out here until next wkend though (i think), am not going to read any reviews until i see it.

ocean's 12?!?!

robyn where did you see that inland empire is coming out next wknd?!?!

WORRIED THAT I AM NOT DOING MY JOB PROPERLY

hank s1ockli (hanks1ockli), Friday, 8 December 2006 05:35 (seventeen years ago) link

ocean's 12?!?!

much better than the first one, it entertains on par with the best of spielberg/badham/scott/tarantino, if not donen/minelli/edwards/lester, and if it has little redeeming social value, at worst it's a vicarious luxury vacation with a couple of your casually stylish actor friends.

or, what he said

nuneb (nuneb), Friday, 8 December 2006 07:15 (seventeen years ago) link

oh, maybe an HM for KB V2 as well

"haha I saw School O Rock on tv the other night too (first time)
Jack Black's shtick is more charming and less annoying when he's in front of kids."

True dat -- I thought I'd hate it (Channel 4 screened a doc about Linklater and Jack Black managed to be insufferable in that, although the questions abt Linklater prob didn't encourage better answers) but within 20 mins I ws 'in', really.

xyzzzz__ (xyzzzz__), Friday, 8 December 2006 12:19 (seventeen years ago) link

I saw "Dungeons & Dragons" the other night, the one with the poche monkey in it


hehe

slockz, i just assumed IE was coming out here when it was released in LA but my assumption is probably totally wrong! i was about to be sad about it, but i'm going to be in NYC next week anyway! (fingers crossed) now i just have to decide whether to spend 3 of my precious nyc hrs on it, plus the resultant state it'll put me in... hm.

gabbneb in hilarious Blake Edwards > Spielberg wtf'er

Dr M (Dr Morbius), Friday, 8 December 2006 14:31 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm more flummoxed by the equivalence he draws between Spielberg, John Badham, and Tony Scott.

ocena's 12 is so bad

Fallen Angels.

yeah INLAND EMPIRE doesn't come to chicago until mid-january!! ;___;

jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 8 December 2006 17:43 (seventeen years ago) link

man, ocean's 11 was bad enough

deep space nine (deep space nine), Friday, 8 December 2006 18:07 (seventeen years ago) link

INLAND EMPIRE starts in Boston tonight! Finally, an advantage to living in this godforsaken iceberg.

gabbneb in hilarious Blake Edwards > Spielberg wtf'er

the cohorts are temporal, not quality-based, you maroon (as in "this is the best X in Y many decades").

I'm more flummoxed by the equivalence he draws between Spielberg, John Badham, and Tony Scott

they're basically equally entertaining. one of the three obviously has nothing else on his mind besides selling something, but even if spielberg has the most redeeming social value, at least john badham doesn't admire aliens (and has a sense of humor).

nuneb (nuneb), Friday, 8 December 2006 19:23 (seventeen years ago) link

man, ocean's 11 was bad enough

I don't especially like the first one (tho it's a worthy movie), but the second one is great!

nuneb (nuneb), Friday, 8 December 2006 19:27 (seventeen years ago) link

(or, xpost, at least he doesn't have a sense of humor based on a childhood disney diet, tho i guess i'll take that over spaghettikungfuxploitation)

nuneb (nuneb), Friday, 8 December 2006 19:30 (seventeen years ago) link

Ocean's 12 is better. Soderbergh doesn't bother pretending the caper will make sense or be remotely possible - he just fucks with the audience. 11 is horrible, 12 is worth seeing at least once.

milo (milo), Friday, 8 December 2006 20:09 (seventeen years ago) link

i'm still pissed about domino, i think i rented that because of you! or ebert. >;(

deep space nine (deep space nine), Friday, 8 December 2006 20:19 (seventeen years ago) link

My love for Man on Fire should have been a tip-off on my attitude toward Tony Scott.

milo (milo), Friday, 8 December 2006 20:33 (seventeen years ago) link

tonight either 12 Monkeys or Strosczek (uhhh sp?)

Jessie the Monster (scarymonster), Friday, 8 December 2006 20:51 (seventeen years ago) link

12 monkeys is the greatest film evar

I KNOW this will only be my 80000th viewing.

Jessie the Monster (scarymonster), Friday, 8 December 2006 21:03 (seventeen years ago) link

'the thing'

deep space nine (deep space nine), Friday, 8 December 2006 21:05 (seventeen years ago) link

Go for Stroszek... just try not to hang yourself afterwards.

The memetic theory of cultural evolution could be considered a form of Lamarckian inheritance of non-genetic traits

In the middle of Little Miss Sunshine. I was surprised at how much I didn't think it sucked for the first half-hour or so ... but it refuses to stop getting fucking worse and worse as it goes on! How can a kid not know he's color blind?!

Eric H. (Eric H.), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:12 (seventeen years ago) link

a lot of color blind people don't actually know they're color blind, from what i understand.

deep space nine (deep space nine), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Most kids get tested for this in school, I thought. In any case, there is nothing that's happened in this movie for the entire roadtrip that's not completely cheap.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:24 (seventeen years ago) link

that movie fucking sucks

this is cutty (mcutt), Friday, 8 December 2006 23:20 (seventeen years ago) link

They should have turned Strozsek into a TV sitcom. Lotsa laffs.

sexyDancer (sexyDancer), Friday, 8 December 2006 23:23 (seventeen years ago) link

redeeming social value, at least john badham doesn't admire aliens (and has a sense of humor).

what the fucking hell is wrong with admiring aliens?

Payback - last awesome Mel Gibson movie. Can't wait to see the noir-er director's cut.

milo (milo), Saturday, 9 December 2006 00:46 (seventeen years ago) link

I can't even begin to parse this sentence, gabbneb.

Trivia: When Larry Cohen asked composer Miklos Rozsa to score this picture, Rozsa replied, "God told me not to."

Goofs: Anachronisms: The car in the flashback scenes was a 1951 Chevrolet, with post-1973 New York State license plates and registration. Briefly, it also turns into a 1939 Plymouth, when it hits a pothole.

ocean's 12 doesn't even have a heist. just slow-mo frenchies doing capoeira and the worst julia roberts shit in the world.

hank s1ockli (hanks1ockli), Saturday, 9 December 2006 08:58 (seventeen years ago) link

no need for those ocean's pics with 'the good thief' out there.
