R.I.P. cricket.

You think it was disturbing or crappy? Or both? I like disturbing movies.

As planned, I'm watching this one tonight. Let's hope it's as enjoyable as Coffy.

Goodbye Dragon Inn (2003) by Tsai Ming-Liang

This should be one of Tsai Ming-Liangs most radical movies in terms of that there is nearly no dialogue. Some people consider it his big masterpiece, so im really looking forward to it.

L'argent (1983) by Robert Bresson

L'argent is the last film of Robert Bresson, but it should also be one of his best!

[Mr Minio]

Look out for the toilet scene in Goodbye, Dragon Inn. It's the definition of awkward.

http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/ODY3WDU4MA==/z/M8MAAOxyCGNTOYuD/$_1.JPG?set_id=880000500F

This will be my third Aronofsky film (of the six he's made). I've already seen Pi and Black Swan. I liked them both, especially Black Swan. Let's hope I enjoy this one too.

After this one, I may watch another film tonight.

Hey, that looks interesting. Never heard of it till you posted, hope it's good. I watched the trailer and it seems okay enough, and only $5. on Amazon, so may give it a buy.

Network (1976)

http://andygeddon.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/network.jpg

PTA once said this was his favorite film of all time. I don't think it's going to have THAT big an effect on me, but let's hope I at least enjoy it. The content looks intriguing and interesting. Perhaps this will become a new contender for my '70s list!

Rewatch for the 70's list. I dont remember it being anywhere as kickass and bodacious as Rocky IV, but if we're being completely honest. Very few films are.

http://utahvalley360.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Rocky-Bolboa-IV.gif

Oh and Cobpyth hope you enjoy Lock stock and two smoking barrels. Its a very energetic, furiously entertaining gangster flick. I like it much better than Snatch.

I was interested in seeing that, but not really anymore because I just watched Gummo -- or TRIED to watch it, I should say. Same director as Spring Breakers, Harmony Korine. I thought it was awful.

[Frightened Inmate No. 2]

gummo is pretty good but spring breakers is my favorite korine.

I feel like I could make better movies than Korine.

[Miss Vicky]

I've not seen any of the other Korine films, but I enjoyed Spring Breakers. I think you ought to give it a chance, Sexy. Judge for yourself.

[Frightened Inmate No. 2]

i'm just a really superficial person, so i enjoyed all of the attractive people in it.

[Miss Vicky]

Also, liking or disliking one movie from a director doesn't mean you're going to feel the same way about the director's other work. Take John Waters, for example. I thought I liked him. I love Serial Mom and liked Cry Baby and Pecker well enough and I find him amusing in the TV shows and film documentaries I've watched him in.

And then I saw Pink Flamingos.

You, sir, are mental. :eek:

Without wishing to go all cinemaafficionado on you all, I've turned down more attractive women than that. Honestly. Maybe from a different angle they look better? Vanessa Hudgens has looked quite nice on occasion.

Spring Breakers surprised me. I thought it was going to be entertaining, but I was more than just entertained. James Franco's performance amazed me because I actually didn't know he was in the film before I watched it, and I didn't realise it was him until two thirds of the way through. The content really appealed to me, and the film was well made and realistic. It was very entertaining.

Anyway... tonight I'm going to Wizardry (1991) an anime OVA based off an old video game. Not really very serious, but it looks entertaining.

http://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/10/22073l.jpg

[Sexy Celebrity]

Well, I hope Spring Breakers isn't like Gummo.

I'd be shocked if Miss Vicky liked Gummo. If I had shown that to her for a commentary, it would have been one of those times she said to me, "There's something seriously wrong with you!"

[Captain Spaulding]

Spring Breakers feels like it's directed by a different guy entirely.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Alright. I'll watch it. I like James Franco.

[Miss Vicky]

Just watched the trailer for Gummo. It looks interesting. I may have to check it out after I finish my 70s list.

[Sexy Celebrity]

What's happening to you??!

[Sexy Celebrity]

The trailer manipulates you by playing Madonna's "Like a Prayer."

[Miss Vicky]

Hmmm. Read a little more about the movie and I'm thinking I'll give it a pass, actually.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Only thing I kinda liked about the movie, that I saw, was this albino lady:

Arrebato

http://www.catch-fire.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Arrebato.jpg

Should be a very dark thriller. It's disturbing, because everytime I randomly click on film's timeline on my player I always get a creepy whispering. I've seen the director's experimental surrealism short and it was pretty good. Arrebato means 'rape', so it's gonna be one helluva disturbing experience.

While I wouldn't say those 4 are ugly, I personally don't find any of them that attractive. Certainly don't think any have the beauty, grace, cuteness or charm of Drew.

I guess I just prefer barely-legal teenagers in bikinis who wear ski-masks and shoot drug-dealers without wasting a single bullet.

Network
(Sidney Lumet, 1976)

I told my mother about the upcoming 70s countdown and she insisted that I had to watch this. I enjoyed the other two 70s Lumet films I've watched, let's see if he can claim a third spot on my list.

[Miss Vicky]

Dont get me started on Franco. Hes terrible too.

Says the man who thinks Owen Wilson is "a comedic genius." :rolleyes:

James Franco is a very capable actor and I really enjoyed his performance in Spring Breakers. He's the reason I decided to watch it.

[Miss Vicky]

He was the main reason I went to go see Milk, which I saw in theaters when it came out.

That performance is what made me like him. I thought he was very good.

Wow. Well that's an interesting proposition to consider. :D

How about it HK? I picture us running quite a fascist, totalitarian forum. We would institute 'Drew Barrymore Friday' where everyone would be forced to watch a Drew film, sport a Drew avi and generally just talk about her. We could ban all mention of Stanley Kubrick, forcing the Kubrickians to go undercover and discuss his films in a dark corner of the board. We could set up an orientation package for new members. When someone signs up they must watch Enter the Dragon, First Blood, Charlie's Angels, Die Hard and Taking of Pelham 123. What else? Oh, forum sanctioned torture of Masterman until he admits that Man of Steel is a piece of s*it! :D

Any other ideas HK?

Same here, I think. I really liked Submarine without being blown away, but I thought it was a unique take on the subject matter and a really promising debut. The cast for this one is a fantastic mix of "in" British stars and foreign wild-cards and Ayoade is tackling some interesting subject matter. Looking forward to it.

A schoolteacher's attempt to escape the boredom of the outback for his annual holiday in Sydney lands him in a place the locals lovingly refer to as "The Yabba." Here, through well-meaning but forced hospitality, kindness and copious amounts of alcohol, he quickly falls into a Hell of drunken debauchery which robs him of all his resources and means of escape. The activity in the Yabba is fast and taut with action, suspense, brutality and a personal ambiguity which leaves our main character an emotional mess. Wake in Fright has a well written and explosive storyline which won't disappoint you.

This would seem to be a must see before the 70's list-

There will be Blood(rewatch)- This is a film that has been begging for a rewatch. I saw it quite a while back, and while I was impressed. I certainly wasn't blown away, and I didn't think it was the grand masterpiece almost everyone insists it is. Hoping on my 2nd viewing I'll fall in love with it.

I liked this more than "Holy Mountain" or "Santa Sangre".

I hope you enjoy it!

I didn't necessarily dislike it; I thought it was solid, but it's just not for me.

I really loved The Ballad of a Soldier, so I'm really excited about this one.

The last movie by Murnau. I don't think it can get close to City Girl and Sunrise, but it would be a nice surprise if it did.

A Single Shot (2013)

[Cobpyth]

I've been watching the anime TV series Cowboy Bebop (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0213338/?ref_=nv_sr_1) (I finished it yesterday night and I must say that I had a pretty good time) for the last two days, so I didn't watch any new films yet. I still need to watch a serious amount of '70s film and It seems that I'll start watching another TV series too (Fargo), but as it is quite late already, I'll settle with something smaller and more modern, so I can give the '70s movies and the TV series a more concentrated look. :p

This will be tonight's film:

Brick (2005)
