Re: What movie turned you into a film buff?

I think the first movie I saw was Bugsy Malone, so probably that one.


Not that I remember a single thing about it.

Re: Best Films On The Human Condition???

I've got to admit, The Human Condition Part 1 left me a little cold as well. I never got around to the other two because of it, and now I feel I'd have to rewatch it if I want to continue with the...

Re: How many masterpieces are there?

Maybe I should finally watch Le Bonheur tonight. I've had it lying around my house unwatched for years. Is it time?



Or maybe I should just sit very still and decompose instead.

He's got a few I'd seriously consider. Kane. Ambersons. Evil. But masterpiece is a high bar. And it should be, when we are worrying about things being the best of the best of the best.

Unquestionably.


The star gate sequence is way more less perfect for me than all those monkeys.

Re: Movies where Rotten Tomatoes got the rating completely wrong

Exactly as Thief said, the Tomatometer is not a real critical barometer. At best, it gives a very flawed idea of what the critical consensus of a film is, but this doesn't really mean much of...

Re: Welcome To Our Nightmare III: Terror, Wooley... and TAKOMA!

I also watched one non horror related film, Will and Harper, which was probably one of the best of the month. Surprising since I thought it would be saccharine trash when my gf put it on.

Re: Welcome To Our Nightmare III: Terror, Wooley... and TAKOMA!

I only watched 19 horror movies this month, and that's only if I include In a Violent Nature, which I watched right at the end of September. Only one rewatch, which is rare for me.
