[Camo]

I seen the dvd for this yesterday dirt cheap.. remember people talking about it but wasnt sure how good it was..

It is fantastic MG. Top 5 Animated film for me.

[MovieGal]

Im going to try to go to Hastings as much as I can.. the only problem is that the three near me are a good hour drive to the East, West and North of me...

buying foreign films for $1.99 is the way to go!!

[Cole416]

Cole, looking at your list, I see you're light on Film Noirs. If you have time check out a few classic noirs. You might like them.
Yeah I haven't seen really any. But then again I don't really understand what the genre means.

[Cole416]

Let me know how you like seeing it in the theater.
I had to cancel :(

I am watching that for sure tomorrow morning/afternoon on my apple tv.

[MovieGal]

Yeah I haven't seen really any. But then again I don't really understand what the genre means.

French Film Noir

Elevator to the Gallows, Directed by Louis Malle.. ok wait.. anything by Louis Malle is worth a watch...

[Miss Vicky]

Yeah I haven't seen really any. But then again I don't really understand what the genre means.

L.A. Confidential is noir, so you're watching one tonight.

[Cole416]

L.A. Confidential is noir, so you're watching one tonight.
Is noir just a crime film? I'm not really understanding what it means.

How come most of the films are from back in the 30s/40s/50s?

[MovieGal]

Is noir just a crime film? I'm not really understanding what it means.

How come most of the films are from back in the 30s/40s/50s?

a style or genre of cinematographic film marked by a mood of pessimism, fatalism, and menace. The term was originally applied (by a group of French critics) to American thriller or detective films made in the period 1944–54 and to the work of directors such as Orson Welles, Fritz Lang, and Billy Wilder.

[MovieGal]

Here Cole.. a guide from Roger Ebert

http://www.rogerebert.com/rogers-journal/a-guide-to-film-noir-genre

[Citizen Rules]

Yeah I haven't seen really any. But then again I don't really understand what the genre means. Some people might call them old gangster films. But after WWII there was a bunch of darker films made about criminals, cops, underworld, shady women. Usually the story is told from the POV of the bad guy, who we find out has some redeeming qualities, but is doomed in the end. Some noirs that you might have heard of are:

Sunset Blvd (1950)
The Big Sleep (1946)
The Killers (1946)
The Maltese Falcon (1941)
Double Indemnity (1944)

Just to name a few.

[Cole416]

Oh ok, thanks the explanations and the link definitely helped. Thank you :)

[gbgoodies]

You may also want to check out some of the movies that were nominated in the MoFo Noir Hall of Fame:

[Miss Vicky]

Another more modern noir that you've seen, Cole, is Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

[Camo]

Sunset, Maltese Falcon and Double Indemnity are all fantastic. Haven't seen the other two yet.

[The Gunslinger45]

I had to cancel :(

I am watching that for sure tomorrow morning/afternoon on my apple tv.

Well let me know how ya like it anyways. Sucks you had to cancel. :( Hell of a theater experience.

[MovieGal]

[Cole416]

Ok yeah, now I understand what they're talking about more.

I already added it :)

Elevator to the Gallows?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0051378/

Again, any film by Louis Malle is worth watching

if you like experimental type films.. then see "Black Moon" by him..

[Cole416]

Debating on buying LA Confidential (having to wait 2 days) for 8 bucks or rent it for 4. I think it's smart to buy it but I want to watch it now :\

[MovieGal]

You know what pisses me off... guys who claim they are in love with you.. but you are disgusted by them.. then they act like a stuck up jerk!!!!


sorry watching North & South on netflixs.. lol

[Mr.Sparkle]

I just got a plant. Hope I don't kill it.

[MovieGal]

I just got a plant. Hope I don't kill it.

Just read online how to take care of it.. and dont over water it.. thats what most people's mistake is.

[Mr.Sparkle]

If I take after my mother....I give it a week or two.

She killed a bamboo plant I got her!!!

[MovieGal]

There should be an option on the Edit Options page--looks like it's set to "Display Only Age." If you change it to display everything, you'll show up on the home page. But it processes that once a day so it won't show up today.

[Cole416]

I think I have to go to the doctor... Having a very fast heartrate for no reason. It stops for a bit then comes back. Hopefully it's nothing.

[rauldc14]

Sorry to hear Cole.

On a lighter note, what should my 3rd Kubrick be? I have to fly in a couple days to the funeral and need a movie to watch.

I'm thinking Eyes Wide Shut or A Clockwork Orange.

[Miss Vicky]

How about you watch something good instead?

[Camo]

Clockwork of course. What were your first two and did you like them?

[Sexy Celebrity]

A Clockwork Orange.

Eyes Wide Shut is a big bore.

[Cole416]

Clockwork of course. What were your first two and did you like them?
Yeah I liked 2001 and Dr Strangelove. They seem to be way different than his other movies though

[Cole416]

How about you watch something good instead?
You never fail to make me laugh, even when I am kind of down :p

[Cole416]

A Clockwork Orange.

Eyes Wide Shut is a big bore.
Really? The premise seemed interesting, but Cruise is gross

[Sexy Celebrity]

A Clockwork Orange is fabulous, no matter what Miss Vicky falsely believes. But Eyes Wide Shut... stupid.

[foster]

best kubrick is full metal jacket

That I'm not gonna argue with.

[Camo]

Yeah I liked 2001 and Dr Strangelove. They seem to be way different than his other movies though

All of his movies are pretty different.

[The Gunslinger45]

2001 is Kubrick's best, but I like Dr Strangelove and The Shining more.

[Derek Vinyard]

A Clockwork Orange.

Eyes Wide Shut is a big bore.

A Clockwork Orange. Malcolm MacDowell is fantastic in that movie.

[Derek Vinyard]

best kubrick is full metal jacket

I'm definitely not agree with that but I need a rewatch soon for Full Metal Jacket

[Cole416]

A Clockwork Orange it is, but I need to watch Full Metal Jacket as well it seems. I am not a big fan of war movies though, but I forgot who said that it didn't matter because it's so good.

[Gatsby]

Sorry to hear about your aunt Cole. :(

My two cents on the Kubrick discussion, subjectively 2001 is the best, Clockwork Orange is well made and Eyes Wide Shut and Full Metal.Jacket are average, but even those are brilliant.

For those of you who haven't seen Lolita yet, I strongly recommend it. :up:

[The Sci-Fi Slob]

[honeykid]

Yeah I liked 2001 and Dr Strangelove.
I'm sorry, it seems we're too late. There's nothing that can be done for him now.

They seem to be way different than his other movies though
Nope, they're boring just like his other films.

[The Sci-Fi Slob]

There's nothing like a cold shower on a sweltering day. I came home feeling all hot and sticky and dizzy from deterioration . I downed 4 pints of Robinsons juice with 5 pounds of ice in it, and then jumped in the shower. I feel like a new man. I feel like I can beat Usain Bolt in the 100 metres!

While we are on subject of fruit barley water/juice. I've been looking on forums where British ex pats have been discussing this matter, and they say they can find no American equivalent. The closest thing they could find was powdered crap like Crystal Lite and Kool-aid. No barley water in the U.S. or Australia for that matter. :eek: I can't survive without Robinsons. I drink 2 bottles a week. I've probably drank enough of it in my life to fill an Olympic size swimming pool!

[MovieGal]

Cole I have seen a few of Kubrick's films, A Clockwork Orange, The Shining, Full Metal Jacket and Eyes zwide Shut. I personally feel that A Clockwork Orange is his best. It's #1 for me as far as English speaking films. It ties that spot with Robin Hardy's The Wicker Man. You should watch both films!

[MovieGal]

Just to clarify, not the crappy Nicholas Cage The Wicker Man. I'm talking about the one with the great Christopher Lee.

[honeykid]

This does seem to be the case. I have a friend who moved to NY and when her son comes over here he goes mad for that stuff. Obviously that's not to say that it isn't anywhere over there, but I was surprised that it was just completely new to him.

[Nostromo87]

I know its neiba's favorite film.. but there is something about it that just looks creepy as hell.. ... dont get me wrong.. and I enjoy creepy but there is something I just cant explain with that film

Paths Of Glory is OK, MV. For Kubrick it's actually watchable.

[Gatsby]

Cole should watch some classic 30s and 40s horror. Those ones are truly great.

Btw, Paths of Glory is great. Last few minutes give me chills.

[Cole416]

I'm still thinking Clockwork for the ride there, and then maybe The Wicker Man for the ride back? :)

[Cole416]

Also, what are your guys' thoughts on Collateral? Saw it on the noir list, but I don't like Cruise. Got fairly good ratings it looks like

EDIT: That'd just be for tonight. I don't have any movie planned out for today yet. :)

[honeykid]

I liked Collateral, but then I like Tom Cruise. I guess it depends on what you don't like about him.

[Cole416]

His personality and the things he says irl. Nothing against him as an actor, though..

Where should I start?

She reads books about raising children from authors who dont have children so they dont have first hand experience. She tries to tell others how to raise their child as well..

She has to have gluten free food so her child cant have gluten, lactose or anything along that line...

She breast feed her child... well her breast milk contains lactose... apparently she never paid attention in biology class..

Oh there are many other things..

[MovieGal]

Wow MG, that's a pretty strong reaction from just coming from a wedding. Did she do anything to you? Or is it you just don't like the cut of her jib?

She thinks she's better than everyone else.. and she knows all there is to know... she's a drunk and a snob... she's from Johnson County Kansas.... pretty much most of them act that way...

Let me tell you what she did one Christmas... She brought her son to my sister's house to watch him.. while my nephew went to the movies and she went back home to relax.. she didnt bring the child any bottles or anything.. just dropped him on my sister's doorstep... that baby cried all night for his mother... and my sister and her husband just went to bed... the rest of us who was awake had to do deal with the child... why couldnt she keep the child at home with her... mothers are supposed to put their children first...

[Citizen Rules]

What does she do for a living?

[MovieGal]

at the time that she did that.. she worked for a bank... since then she has studied to be a firefighter...

It doesnt matter... as a parent .. it is your responsibility for your child.... I never dropped my daughter off at someone's door step...and expected them to take care of her.. while I just sat at home and did nothing... not even on my days off from work.. my child didnt go to daycare... she stayed home with me....

[Citizen Rules]

Are you going to have to see her much? If she is in another town maybe you won't bump into her except at holidays. What about your sister and family members do they get along with her?

[MovieGal]

Are you going to have to see her much? If she was in another town maybe you won't bump into except at holidays. What about your sister and family members do they get along with her?

I dont see her much which is good..

Remember me talking about my sister not waiting for me to get off work to celebrate the holidays with them? Its because of my nephew's wife..(at the time, his girlfriend).. she cant change her schedule to eat at her parent's house early and my sister's late...

That child will be the kind that everyone picks on in school.. because his parents dont allow him to be social... and that he has to eat a special diet... etc...

[Citizen Rules]

I do remember about the holiday dinner. Well, I guess it's good you don't have to see her that much. I'm sure Christmas won't be your favorite time if she is around.

[Citizen Rules]

So what else is new with you MG?....or anyone?

CR, that post.. I havent tried it yet.. not after the problem I had with the other one.. which made that burning smell in my nostrils..

I went back to my old allergy pill.. but not helping much

I think I might go read my book... The Glass Casket.... great story with gore.... and yeah you might think its about SW but its not... a character in the book similar to her.. had her heart ripped out... by a strange beast we havent discovered yet....what it is..

You know the Criterion library much better than me. I am going to finish off my Anderson collection. I need Fox and Moonrise. I want to get Nashville, Short Cuts, and 12 Angry Men. I probably won't get all those this time.

[MovieGal]

I need to look thru the Bergman films and see what I dont have

I want "la jete" but damn its expensive.. I know its two short films together but its $40

[rauldc14]

I'm mad that I never bought the criterion Fantastic Mr. fox. Just the original. Oh well.

[Swan]

oh gesh.. you know I will always take suggestions from you.. do i ever need to ask? heck I give you suggestions all the time without you asking..

[MovieGal]

hmmm I dont think I have seen an Anderson film.. we have Grand Budapest on dvd.. but its my daughter's... lol she wanted it..

[The Gunslinger45]

I need to update certain Wes Anderson films with the Criterion DVD. Namely Moonrise Kingdom when it comes out and Bottle Rocket. And also when they eventually release The Grand Budapest Hotel.

Also why has Stalker never gotten a Criterion release?

[seanc]

hmmm I dont think I have seen an Anderson film.. we have Grand Budapest on dvd.. but its my daughter's... lol she wanted it..

My favorite director of the moment. The other Anderson is close.

[rauldc14]

Watch Rushmore or Fox. Those are good. Tenenbaums and Budapest on the other hand....

[MovieGal]

friends have told me that I probably wont like any Anderson films.. but I dont know.. some of them just dont sound like my type of arthouse films..

[seanc]

Tenenbaums and Budapest on the other hand....

Are fantastic. Have you seen Moonrise Raul?

[MovieGal]

Are fantastic. Have you seen Moonrise Raul?

isnt Moonrise animated?

[seanc]

isnt Moonrise animated?

No just Fox. Rumor is his next one is going to be as well.

[MovieGal]

Le Silence de la mer might be one to get.. .and maybe the Merchant of Four Seasons..

Im on their site now looking at new releases..

[MovieGal]

Ok two Anderson films I wont buy... Life Aquatic and Royal Tenenbaums...

[rauldc14]

Are fantastic. Have you seen Moonrise Raul?

No yet. Just seen 4 Andersons.

[MovieGal]

[seanc]

I liked it quite a bit. Do you generally like Gilliam?

[MovieGal]

I liked it quite a bit. Do you generally like Gilliam?

I don't blind buy. So if it's me I rent it first.

[MovieGal]

[MovieGal]

I don't blind buy. So if it's me I rent it first.

[rauldc14]

I blind bought Sideways and that worked out great!

[Gatsby]

Are fantastic. Have you seen Moonrise Raul?

isnt Moonrise animated?
The frame rate kinda makes it look like one.

He uses a lot of miniatures. What frame rate does he use? I never heard that before.

[Gatsby]

I don't know exactly but I've heard he tends to use high speed cameras quite often - makes the films look lively and fast moving and create his awesome stylish slow motion.

If anybody needs me, I'll be in the shower.

Interesting call today...dead body found at location...

[The Gunslinger45]

Well that is never fun...

Interesting call today...dead body found at location...
They're onto you. Leave now.

[rauldc14]

Dead body found on your property!?

[Sexy Celebrity]

Dead body found on your property!?
Oh, don't be so shocked.

[MovieGal]

No...lady called us back..I got the call..police found a dead body..noticed we were their alarm company..called us to get a keyholder to respond.

[The Gunslinger45]

No...lady called us back..I got the call..police found a dead body..noticed we were their alarm company..called us to get a keyholder to respond.

Hey never had that type of call before.. once I see something online .. I will post about it.. I know what city it was in.. so lets give it time..

[Sexy Celebrity]

What's happened to '90sAce? He hasn't been on in two weeks and his profile looks like this:

'90sAce Profile (http://www.movieforums.com/community/member.php?u=84008)

You can't send him private messages.

I'm convinced he's been secretly banned. I think the same thing happened to Will.15, too. Yoda does something to ban members while making it look like they're not banned. It keeps them from coming back.

[jrs]

You can't send him private messages.

A member can turn off that function.

Or maybe he got bored with us and decided to go piss off the members of some other forum.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Yes, I know, but it's just kinda odd that '90sAce would suddenly disappear like that.

[Gatsby]

He realized the source of homophobia is religion.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I'm telling you -- he's been secretly banned. There was no real reason to ban him, but they wanted it done anyway. That's how you can get "secretly banned." Where it just looks like you left, but in reality -- YOU'RE BANNED.

[Yoda]

90sAce has not been banned. Though I'm sure my saying this will be taken as evidence of an even deeper conspiracy. :)

[jrs]

He's been abducted by aliens and will be featured in the X-Files revival.

[seanc]

So weird Sexy. It's almost like the guy only showed up a couple times a week to ruffle feathers. I thought for sure he was a lifer. Maybe it was a Yoda alt account.

[Gatsby]

Maybe we're all Yoda's alt accounts.

It's like the Matrix, we think we're an individual, active being on this site, but actually Yoda is sapping all of our energy, slowly killing us.

Which is was happened to 90sAce.

I suppose you think figuring out all that makes you the one. That's fine with me but I call dibs on Trinity when she shows up.

[MovieGal]

I am seriously thinking of watching every film I can get my hands on with Stellan Skarsgård... I love his acting.. he's just as versatile as Mads is... I have seen quite a few of his films already...

Oh yeah... and they are both in King Arthur together.. and fighting.. Swede versus Dane.. ;)

Even as a young boy growing up at the circus, I knew that something wasn’t quite right with me. The other kids used to pick on me because I preferred playing with dolls and make-up rather than plastic guns and footballs. I’d look down at my penis with revulsion and try to will it back into my body. Sometimes I’d even sneak into the bearded lady’s tent to try on her dresses. As I grew older and learned more about gender identity, I realized that I was a woman trapped inside a clown’s body. I have lived with this secret for many years, ashamed and afraid of being judged and ostracized. BUT NO LONGER! A year ago I started my transition into becoming the woman I was always meant to be. I’ve taken all the necessary steps, from hormone replacement therapy to breast augmentation. A few weeks ago I finally underwent the final step: inverting my penis into a vagina. Captain Spaulding was nothing more than a cocoon preparing the beautiful butterfly inside of me for her metamorphosis into the real world. I am born anew! Caitlyn Spaulding has finally blossomed! And I am looking forward to spreading my wings across the forum as your new heroine and inspiration!

Since I no longer have a penis, I doubt Sexy Celebrity will want anything to do with me, which means . . .

I’M SINGLE!!!!

So act quickly before somebody else sweeps me off my feet. Just be gentle. My new vagina hasn’t fully dilated yet.

Nice favorite movies list! Guap would approve

My Little Pony is an excellent series geared toward middle-aged men. In fact, the statistics state that 92.67% of all men between the ages of 42-57 have at least one My Little Pony movie in their collection.

[The Gunslinger45]

Captain! Welcome back dude! And in time for the 60's Countdown!

[Gatsby]

The rest, 7.33%, were too busy watching a My Little Pony movie to answer that poll.

[Captain Spaulding]

Captain! Welcome back dude! And in time for the 60's Countdown!

Thanks. I'm in the process of catching up with it now. I'm several pages in and I've yet to see any marijuana or LSD or naked hippies frolicking in an orgy, so I'm pretty disappointed.

Lots of Yoko Ono, though.

Give the list time. Easy Rider is a sure in. Maybe a Russ Meyer or two...

[Sexy Celebrity]

Easy Rider was on my list. Very high.

[honeykid]

There isn't going to be any Russ Meyer on the 60's list. :laugh:

[Cole416]

Yeah I strongly disliked Clockwork..

Funny, I sort of enjoyed Bronson.. But this one was just no.

[jiraffejustin]

Welcome back Spaulding.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O52jAYa4Pm8

That song doesn't have anything to do with you (maybe?) I just wanted to post another Talking Heads song.

[Cole416]

If i see another preview for "The Gallows" i might throw up. The movie looks TERRIBLE

[MovieGal]

Yeah I strongly disliked Clockwork..

Funny, I sort of enjoyed Bronson.. But this one was just no.

Im really sorry you didnt enjoy "A Clockwork Orange" film Cole416... its one of my favorite films.. its very extreme and well.. I guess its not for everyone...

:(

[The Gunslinger45]

There isn't going to be any Russ Meyer on the 60's list. :laugh:

Probably right. Coffy didn't even make the 70's list. :(

[Mr Minio]

It's 2:22 AM here and I'm chillin'. Also listening to some J-pop.

[MovieGal]

I think Im going to change my top 10 to be English speaking films.. and I know some of you are going to make fun of my vanillaness.

[neiba]

It's great to have you back Captain!!! :)

[Mr Minio]

I think Im going to change my top 10 to be English speaking films.. and I know some of you are going to make fun of my vanillaness. Do what you want, but if your top 10 of all time doesn't include English speaking films that's alright, why force them there?

Vani... what?

[MovieGal]

Do what you want, but if your top 10 of all time doesn't include English speaking films that's alright, why force them there?

Vani... what?

I have films that are my favorite English speaking, Foreign Films. I have top films by genres as well

I love films about the IRA..

1. Hunger
2. In the Name of the Father
3. Michael Collins
4. The Wind that Shakes the Barley
5. Five Minutes of Heaven..

I know more but those are my top 5... not really in any order.. except "Hunger".. its my favorite .. its the most intense film of them..

[Citizen Rules]

Whats up! I have a new avatar, anybody like it?

A big welcome to Captain Spaulding! You still got the knack to entertain! MoFo come back of the year award!

[Mr Minio]

Cool. I could make a favourite list of any genre, year, director, language, but I prefer mine to be just as the title suggest, an all time favourite one.

Hunger is a hell of a film. The long one-take conversation between Fassbender and a priest was simply amazing.

[MovieGal]

Hunger is a hell of a film. The long one-take conversation between Fassbender and a priest was simply amazing.

And that is the thing that McQueen focuses on... that one dialog between 2 people that sets the film in a higher status... I agree that is a hell of a film and that scene is amazing...

vanillaness is a weird word, tho, I'd call it vanillanity.

1. Orchid and flavour from it
2. Something unmodified/unchanged/original (term used with video games that have not been moded)

you're vanilla.. I'm kinky.. lol Sure, but you just said you are vanilla, so what am I now?

My films are vanilla that I have listed in top 10...

I can totally relate to the plot of "The Wicker Man"... I really need sit down and write how I can relate to each aspect of the film.. f*ck I love that film... I love the fact of human sacrifice as the old ones used to do..centuries ago...

[Citizen Rules]

I've seen 6 of your vanilla films. Not bad for me seeing how I'm the king of conventional;)

[Mr Minio]

[MovieGal]

This is one of the movie posters... and its the symbol Robin Hardy used for this and "The Wicker Tree".. which I enjoyed as well.. I hated the Nic Cage Wicker Man...

Oh there are times in both films were you see the clay sun.. which is that drawing...

[Citizen Rules]

I've seen Clockwork Orange, I suggested that for a college class, so we watched it and everyone hated it, especially the girls. I've not seen it since the 80s.

I've not seen The Wicker Man, The Count of Monte Cristo, Hunger, Dark Crystal.

[Mr Minio]

I hated the Nic Cage Wicker Man...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfBUgLSVVwk

Best scene in film history.

Oh there are times in both films were you see the clay sun.. which is that drawing... Too bad. I hoped for a sunflower monster that could beat the OH NOEEEEE NUT TEH BEEEEISSSS scene from the Nic Cage remake.

The Wicker Tree was originally going to be called "Cowboys For Christ".. there is a book by that name.. (I have the soft back of this book)

Minio... you know there are two different versions of the Nic Cage "The Wicker Man"... one where you see his legs get broken and one where you just understand they are broken...

I still hated it.. Even Robin Hardy was upset over the outcome...

[MovieGal]

http://roflzoo.com/pics/042010/horse-vs-wave-big.jpg

Hi Swan..

[Swan]

Hi MovieGal....

[MovieGal]

your boy Eli.. has a video of his thoughts on The Wicker Man...

[Swan]

That's cause he's a G.

[MovieGal]

That's cause he's a G.

I respect him as a director of Horror....

[Mr Minio]

The Cage remake was a turd.

But some quotes and scenes are hilarious.

Gotta go to sleep. Cya.

[MovieGal]

I've seen Clockwork Orange, I suggested that for a college class, so we watched it and everyone hated it, especially the girls. I've not seen it since the 80s.

I've not seen The Wicker Man, The Count of Monte Cristo, Hunger, Dark Crystal.

Is The Wicker Man just not your type of film? I really dont consider it a horror.. never did.. many cultures believed in what that films discusses.

The Count of Monte Cristo is very good...

Hunger a great IRA film ...

The Dark Crystal.. one of my favorites as Im a fan of the conceptual artist of the film.
