my buddy is the quarterback in that.

i am in love with the departed.

What was condescending about Half Nelson?

Why does the presence of Jackie Earle Haley negate the brilliance of the setpiece in Little Children?

Can we change the thread title so as not to attract ILF cranks?

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 16:45 (seventeen years ago) link

for starters, the oh-so-gratuitous scene w/Gosling's family near end

― Bill Weber (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 16:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Gratuitous, maybe, but I didn't think it was heavy-handed, and I liked watching them all interact.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 17:12 (seventeen years ago) link

Jams, Altman or Betty Comden?

He negates nothing because there is no brilliance in it to be negated. I'm sorry, jmc, but this is a definitively worthless movie.

Can we change the thread title so as not to attract ILF cranks?

I'm sorry, I'll try to be more respectful as per the standards of noize board.

Changing Times, which will probably make my top 10; Morbs OTM in claimin git's a better film about colonialism than Caché.

Nice to see the kid from Nico & Dani all grows up.

The Faculty might have been the last movie where Hartnett appeared to be awake most of the time.

― milo (milo), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 17:49 (seventeen years ago) link

ballpoint pen drugs kept him alert

Oh – and nothing wrong with watching films piecemeal; it's good for digestion.

― Alfred Soto (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 17:54 (seventeen years ago) link

RHYTHM is broken, tho (unless there's none to be had)

― Bill Weber (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 17:58 (seventeen years ago) link

sometimes a bro has to take a leak

― deep space nine (deep space nine), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 18:59 (seventeen years ago) link

I define piecemeal as over days, not pausing for leak

"ILF crank" = dares to find any fault with a film the indie-media poobahs (or Rotten Tomatoes) have decreed a masterpiece

― Dr M (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 19:04 (seventeen years ago) link

I also take my leaks piecemeal.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 19:04 (seventeen years ago) link

the indie-media poobahs? like... zinesters?

indymedia.org?

Pausing to pour wine, cook dinner, and answer the phone should count too!

^ADD^

tenacious d movie is 6 years late.

― this is cutty (mcutt), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 20:20 (seventeen years ago) link

w thewliss?

yeah i saw it in 93 but this time through on dvd i could go back and replay parts with difficult dialogue (for a non-brit). almost a perfect film, i would have liked another actor playing the landlord.

― spaghetti occidentali ( Spaghetti Occidentali), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 20:21 (seventeen years ago) link

i liked little children: dream-like and compassionate and i laughed a lot (especially at the narration which was so left field as to be totally wtf every time it happened).

I guess I've learned to filter out the "liberal b.s." parts of movies nowadays. If you can get past that, Half Nelson is v. enjoyable. Never seen any of Gosling's other movies...but he wasn't the only one doing a good job in this one, why does he get all the attention?

yawn @ cutty

― cousin larry bundgee (bundgee), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 20:34 (seventeen years ago) link

I think Shareeka Epps is getting attention. She was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 20:35 (seventeen years ago) link

Anyway, isn't Half Nelson partially about the failures of liberalism?

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 20:37 (seventeen years ago) link

I suppose it's trying to be.

― Bill Weber (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 20:40 (seventeen years ago) link

I though it was about a teacher who acts like a rock star, basically.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:07 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh holy shit, young Ryan Gosling looks EXACTLY like ilxor Cprek circa 1994. EXACTLY.

― nklshs (nklshs), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:09 (seventeen years ago) link

has there been a convincing schoolteacher drama, EVER? that French one 3-4 years ago? (Armond White argues for Jon Voight in Conrack, which I've never seen) Can young Ms Epps sing "To Sir with Love"?

― Dr M (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:21 (seventeen years ago) link

dean would tell you school of rock is convincing

― this is cutty (mcutt), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:22 (seventeen years ago) link

My gf turned to each other at the end of the History Boys trailer and were like "Dead Poets Society much?"

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:27 (seventeen years ago) link

well, apparently History Boys brings buggery to the fore

― Bill Weber (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:29 (seventeen years ago) link

My gf turned to each other

LOL yr gf is Niki from Heroes

― nklshs (nklshs), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:32 (seventeen years ago) link

a built in 3way!

whoa.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:34 (seventeen years ago) link

school of rock is about 47 years too late

― cousin larry bundgee (bundgee), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:58 (seventeen years ago) link

I like about a third of Prime of Ms Jean Brodie.

Also: I got Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut, in which Donner gets the Kurosawa and Bunuel treatment. Richard Lester gets nary a compliment when his cut is what made the film vastly superior to its predecessor.

― Alfred Soto (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:30 (seventeen years ago) link

I think it's unfair that Shareeka Epps is stealing all the acclaim when Dakota Fanning has spent all this time paying her dues and has a plum role in this holiday season's gift to moviegoers called Charlotte's Web. Don't let us down, Screen Actors Guild!

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:32 (seventeen years ago) link

Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut

Is this commercially available?

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 23:08 (seventeen years ago) link

the education of shelby knox (bad)
Hustle & Flow director, right? Is it out in theatres, or did it just get dumped to DVD?

― milo (milo), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 23:12 (seventeen years ago) link

Donner cut is out on DVD today.

You must be thinking of Black Snake Moan? Education is a documentary about a girl in Texas fighting for sex ed in the schools.
