Mmm. Yeah this could be good.

 

[No spoken words]

Mmm. Yeah this will be good.

Fixed.

 

[Lancemc]

Fixed.

Yeah, probably. I'm really digging some of the psychological/supernatural/psychosexual stuff in there. Aronofsky's visual talents seem to be improving too.

[GirlsAloudFan]

She's really, really high.

 

[lazarus]

When she was in Harvard
she smoked weed every day.

 

[powerhour24]

Nice reference Laz. And fuck yeah to more Aronofsky. Though I must say I'm surprised to see some of it filmed ala The Wrestler with Libatique coming back as DP for Darren again. Anyway, decidedly fucked up, and so not commercial... and definitely not Aronofsky's vehicle to mainstream American accolades, but who cares about that.

(it's not canon)

The Ghostbusters forum has spoken: Do you consider Shadows Of The Empire canon with Star Wars? - The Ghostbusters Message Board

 

[lazarus]

It's always nice to know there are many more pathetic levels of geek than what one resides at.

Ghostbusters forum? For two films?

Some Black Swan screencaps:

Please don't dismiss the fact that on said Ghostbusters' forum, they're discussing the canonization of a Star Wars book.

It looks like David Cronenberg remade The Red Shoes after watching Inland Empire a dozen times... and shot it with something better than a fucking Handicam.

 

[lazarus]

I'm feeling The Red Shoes AND Black Narcissus, personally.


Speaking of which, you see Blimp yet, punk? We want those rankings.

 

[No spoken words]

In the course of like 48 hours last week, I watched Black Narcissus, Lawrence of Arabia, The Bicycle Thief, Rififi and Red Desert.

 

[lazarus]

Reviews or it didn't happen.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Yes.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

No.

Yeah, good call on Narcissus. I haven't had the chance, settling into my apartment back up at school the last couple of days and all, but it will be watched/disseminated/ranked.

 

[lazarus]

Good, or you will be waterboarded/flayed/burned.

 

[Lancemc]

Is it ever possible to mention Inland Empire without shitting on the video quality? You damn resolution elitists. What next, won't be able to watch stuff shot on 16 mm either without bitching and moaning? Tsk tsk.

Blimp is on instant still I think. I should find the time for it myself. A lot else on my plate ahead of it though. Gotta see Tales of Hoffman too at some point still.

 

[Slapnutz]

No tongues?

 

[lazarus]

Close enough.

A Woman, a Gun and a Noodle Shop - Movie Trailers - iTunes

I.. wait, wha.. uh... ok, what?

 

[Dalton]

I forgot to mention that I watched Kick-Ass on the way home from San Diego the other day. I laughed out loud at Hit-Girl's opening scene. "Okay you cunts ... let's see what you can do."

 

[Lancemc]

More BIG Black Swan caps

Spoiler

I must say I really wish more mid/high-profile filmmakers would work in 16mm. Such a beautiful format.

 

[lazarus]

My god that is hot.

 

[Lancemc]

It's just that frame, and it's only maybe a couple frames in the trailer of her in the swan make-up, and then it vanishes and she's make-up-less (theatrical make-up anyway) for the rest of what we see of her in the club. Very cool.

 

[Imperor]

My god that is hot.

Absolutely agree. She's the best. Black Swan looks really great regardless of that.

Side note: am I the only one that thinks Mila Kunis' obnoxious voice keeps her from being a top tier hottest chica?

 

[lazarus]

Probably. It would definitely detract during the sexual act as well, I imagine.

Spoiler

Oh, do I imagine...
