Well, that seems unlikely to happen in this case since this album truly doesn't mean anything to any of us.

In a post-film Q&A for Upstream Color, Carruth commented that so much of the narrative "sense" of the movie is told through visual and aural associations (match cuts, color, sounds), which is part of what makes it so pleasurable (and very unlike Primer). I think Carruth wants the audience to follow what's happening,…

Yeah, my memory just made it so they were ripping off The Seventh Seal outright.

Yes, these would be my top three to get a deluxe treatment as well.

The Criterion Blu Ray of this is stunning, and a reminder of just how under-represented Altman's films are in this format. The old WB DVD I have of McCabe and Mrs. Miler is atrocious, and the ones for Images and The Long Goodbye, amongst others, aren't much better.

Good choice, but really every scene in McCabe and Mrs. Miller deserves the Scenic Routes treatment.

You spell it like Tardis, how quaint!

Is Night Train To Terror the one where God and the Devil are playing chess on a train?

Titus Andronicus has a song called "Nathan Rabin"?

"It's literally like someone took America by the East Coast and shook it and all the normal girls managed to hang on."

Huh. I don't remember the details of the doctor scene, but I felt the final twist was right in line with the spirituality the film is addressing head-on. For me, it didn't lessen the impact of anything before it, but in fact heightened it.

@avclub-997c221538094d134659141cf61d51e3:disqus I wasn't saying it needed to explicitly make a point, ala an essay. But for me, all of that beauty in the filmmaking really didn't add up to anything meaningful to me—it felt a little shallow in this respect, and much more like the art-school kind of filmmaking his…

Who in the what now?!?! What are the deep failings at the script level?

There was a great review of Battle In Heaven when it came out (possibly by Hoberman?) that articulated my problems with it, which are similar to ones I have with Post Tenebras Lux: essentially it's an incredibly well made movie (the sound design alone is amazing) but doesn't really have much to say. I do agree it has…

Fair enough. Most people I talked to who saw it didn't love it like I did, and it seemed to be contested a bit here in the comments as well…

That's the saddest part of the trailer—it's like he's doing a bad parody of his own great performance in that.

I'll stick up for Billy Madison, which has all of the childish stupidity of Sandler's other work, but is so surreal moment-to-moment that it stands apart from the rest for me. The more Sandler shifted his sensibility towards the mainstream, the more insufferable the films became.

Rango is so underrated. Wonderfully bizarre and so beautifully made. The creature design alone in that rivals the best of Pixar, and ILM did an amazing job on it considering it was their first animated feature.

VS. CUMBERBATCH! It's like Victorian Pay-Per-View.

The review makes this sound unwatchably knowing and cutesy about its references. If the scene that points to "what could have been" involves Michael Rapaport as an agent, this is clearly not a movie for me.
