I was just being silly. It doesn't really mean anything. Sweden is the first country with snow that came to mind that isn't America.

Re: Cats Are Finally Having a Big Hollywood Meow-Ment

I made a film all about my parents' three cats. They didn't want to be in it. The black one scratched and bit me.

We've done a good job yakking about it too. I get why he said it, even if it is hyperbolic.

Re: Transformers... A Masterclass in Trash

The first one is okay. It's almost passable as a reasonable, mindless, dumb blockbuster. The second one is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I never bothered after that.

Re: The MoFos Top 100 of the 90s Countdown - Redux

I didn't really like Barton Fink. Nothing happened. I should qualify that; I don't remember anything happening. Some dude had writer's block, and some other dude was a total tool. That's what I...

I haven't seen the two before Toy Story 2 and JFK (I can't even recall their names right now). I have seen Toy Story 2 and JFK though. Toy Story 2 is okay.

I put JFK on my ballot at #5 (I didn't...

It has been a while since I watched Vertigo so maybe I'm remembering it wrong. Yeah maybe they have some insight. I don't have many answers, at least for that question.

By the end of The Good, the Bad, the Weird, Park Chang-yi has lost everything, and then at the end he loses his life. It all falls apart (mostly because he sucks at leading).

Re: Is The Godfather the greatest American film ever made?

Spielberg can think so. It doesn't mean we have to agree with him. Apparently it makes for some discussion though. Where does that leave Citizen Kane?

I found Big Eyes to be of high quality as well. It has Tim Burton's flourish while also remaining mellow. I really want to get a copy. I also really like the leads in Adams and Waltz so that helps...

Re: The MoFos Top 100 of the 90s Countdown - Redux

Edward Scissorhands is the third movie from my ballot to make the countdown. I've not seen, nor even heard of, Perfect Blue, so I'm going to go look for it.

Addendum; Satoshi Kon sounds like he...
