@CiCi (http://www.movieforums.com/community/member.php?u=88118) @CosmicRunaway (http://www.movieforums.com/community/member.php?u=90868) You guys did a great job last year running the Mofies! Any chance you would run it again?:) Hopefully so.
Thank you! It's too bad all the images were put on Photobucket, and they have since changed their direct linking rules. The thread now is just a pile of broken image links. :(
I guess the two of us could manually fix all our posts if anyone really cared, but Topsy's not here to edit hers anyway.
F*kin hell, it can't be that time of year again already 😲

One if the things that gets this forum rolling again for the year. It's been somewhat dull recently. I noticed that too, especially since December. Maybe everybody is out Christmas/Holiday shopping? It's up to us remaining MoFos to get the party started:p That's why I'm really hoping we can still do out Top 100 MoFos and Mofies awards.

Now that we've had the first blizzard of the season, and the locks to our door have been frozen all day despite multiple attempts to de-ice them, it officially feels like winter.
Yay?
My friend and I made a pact to make our first full-length debut film before we hit 35, and we're starting to make shorts and stuff a lot. I have a hand-me-down DSLR from my dad, but honestly I have been so into just using Filmic Pro (same app Sean Baker used for Tangerine) on my iPhone that I just want to make stuff with that for now. It's convenient as hell and really intuitive, and I just want to focus on more important things than the camera.

Brrrr. This is why I don’t live anywhere near the Canadian border.
My buddy and I made this last night. He directed me however he chose first, and then I directed him, and then I took the footage home and tried to make some sort of short film out of it. It's not much, but it's kind of neat to me just seeing what we could do in a few hours of time.

Released in 2004

I just looked at their menu to see what's served at a texas roadhouse. What's the difference between a burger and a sandwich? Here all of those would be called burger.

A burger is ground beef pattie fried....a sandwich is any meat or protein on bread

Is that a texan thing? In NYC we had a burger and it was grilled pattie and what every else you wanted on a bun. I didnt see sandwich on a menu apart from reuben and club which was with bread. Just curious. A bit of cultural interchange. :up: I remember my neighbour going to hawaii on her engagement several years ago and she came back talking about burgers being called sandwiches but when I went there as a teen burgers were all just burgers.
For me here

Hope everyone's New Year was fab! I went to my buddy's and walked right into a ready made music studio with electronic musicians waiting for me to bass play, so I did. We got this recording all live on one track, one take. There was an orgasmic celebration of food, liquor and meditation. And I smoked a bit of weed for the first time in 6 years. I got a little scared haha..

Ah, it was great, really! I didn't know what to expect. I went over thinking I was gonna make an appearance and then leave. 6 hours later I was watching the ball drop in times square on the tv with a bunch of burned out karaoke chicks watching Mariah Carey, all talking shlt about her!
Very comfortable situation, though. We went upstairs to the studio. We snuck away from the girls ;)
As soon as the first bong hit started racing my heart, I picked up the bass, closed my eyes and played very softly and servicably. My line signal was super hot so I had to be careful not to spike anyone because we were all running on one submixed input as one stereo track. No post edits or fader adjustments!

I'm often guilty of heavy post adjustments though, usually to try and compensate for inadequate equipment, (or falling in love with filters). :lol: But I do a lot in one take,and unplanned.

The best stuff comes out when you are unplanned. I think one trick is to just leave everything rolling, no matter if it's a couple of hours, and just lay stuff down..then you can always go back, pick the best nuggets, and shine those up and arrange them. I used to be dead set against a click track, but after shooting my foot off many times, I always use some sort of tempo guide whether a drum loop or whatever...you never know when you'll want to insert a quick few bars of Bee Gees styled rhythm section!

I feel awful today. Constant, increasing anxiety. My head and my eyes feel sunken and heavy. Don't know where I want to be, feel down and antsy everywhere. I've gone to my buddy's house and left fairly quickly three times (it's a twenty minute drive there).
I go through bouts of depression, but I've never experienced anything like this. It's never this extreme.

Hang in. I’ve been feeling similarly as of late. As counterintuitive and lazy as it sounds, sleep helps me when all else fails. Hopefully you're able to slow down enough for some shut eye.

I was thinking sleep might be a big factor. My sleep pattern the last few days have been incredibly strange(r than usual), but hopefully I just woke from a good, deep sleep. Hoping today will be better.

How about making a movie involving psychopathic gorillas from outer space - maybe that would help?
Hopefully it was more a case of sleep deprivation than anything more worrisome and today is far better than yesterday!
Update for those who seemed concerned: yesterday I felt a hell of a lot better. I think sleep and having some time just relaxing at home was the cure. And the filmmaking always seems to raise my spirits, awesomely. I get super hyper. :D

Recently watched Logan's Run again and was left with several questions this time for some reason (hope no one mind's if I ask them here).
When Logan is tasked by the computer to take on a secret mission to find Sanctuary the computer puts up "number of unaccounted for runners" and the number is over 1000. Logan is shocked, but somehow he jumps to the completely unrelated conclusion that no one killed in Carousel regenerates. What does the number of unaccounted for runners have to do with those killed at Carousel - who are not runners and are all accounted for? Why does Logan seem to think the number of "unaccounted for runners" is counting all the accounted for 30-year-olds killed at Carousel? We learn later that "unaccounted for runners" ended up victims of Box (the robot), but why does Logan leap to this unrelated conclusion (that defies everything he ever believed) about regeneration?
Why does Francis chase Logan? We know Francis witnessed Logan let a runner go - so I guess that's the main reason. But doesn't it ever occur to Francis that Logan may be on a mission to find Sanctuary for the agency that employs the Sandmen since he knows that Logan still has a couple years on his lifeclock and just came out of a top secret meeting with headquarters? Francis knows Logan's age (established in the film) but then hunts him as if he's a runner. Logan can't be a runner because he's not old enough - wouldn't Francis realize something's gone wrong with Logan's palm crystal since he knows Logan's age? Then Francis offers to make a deal with Logan if he'll turn himself in while Francis terminates Jessica - his reasoning? He says because "she's a runner" - but she's not, her life clock hasn't even turned to the final color yet. Sure, Francis could maybe arrest her for having a connection to Sanctuary, but he couldn't kill her for being a runner since she's not old enough to be one.
And I also had some problems with the final scene - going back into the city via the ocean ducts, just leaving the old man outside with no supplies, and how all the people from the city just seem to walk up to the old man, when earlier the only way Logan could find access to the city was through the ocean ducts. (But that's enough for now)! ;)

No prob. Maybe I can save it for a sci-fi thread. It's just that I just watched it again a few days ago and while watching a movie I've seen many times I'm thinking, "that didn't make sense, why would Logan suddenly think that? Francis knows she's not a runner! Why would he say that?"

Congrats!
I think I'm turning my application in today. A little later than I wanted to but I had a hard time collecting business references.
I wanted to make a thread called "What is the longest thread title you can post without spamming the forum?" but thought it'd be spam.
I'm in. Just let me know in advance so I can get the movies. I dont have all of his yet (shame on me!!!)
Neiba is cool. He needs to sing for me first.

Here are some opinions on Arthouse Mafia*:
Velvet: Ever since I joined Arthouse Mafia, I feel like a new human being! I discover brandnew, interesting films daily, and constantly expand my cinematic horizons. It was without a doubt the best decision of my life, only second to eating a tuna sandwich yesterday evening.
Sexy Celebrity: I've been a member for more than 15 years, and I regret nothing. Nothing, but one thing. That I didn't join Arthouse Mafia!
Yoda: Arthouse Mafia good is. You join now.
mark f: I would join, but I've already seen every film in the world, so there's nothing new I can discover now.

seanc "I would but I am a part of the mainstream militia and cannot betray my pleb tendencies" Arthouse Mafia changed its politics! Everybody can participate! Even Mainstream Mafia members are welcome! Since both mafias focus on film, it's inane fighting each other. Let's just discover new, exciting cinema together!
