Up vote for Nicole Eggert. Speaking of The Lost Boys, if you haven't seen Blown Away, the movie with her and the two Coreys, holy shit, get on it.
I agree, although I actually enjoyed it more than the book. I'm a Bret Easton Ellis apologist (to an extent), but I found that novel a little bit of a slog to get through. The only real impetus I had for finishing it was that my friend had to order it through an inter-library loan because my college's library…
It's funny that you mention the "Satisfaction" scene, because that's primarily what I remember about that movie. In a perfect world, Commando would be available as well and then I could really get my Arnie, 80's cheese fix.
Pretty excited about Raw Deal. I haven't seen that flick since the 80's. Also, I'm probably in the minority here, but I actually enjoy The Rules of Attraction. Sure, the characters are completely unlikable, but the soundtrack kicks ass and from a technical standpoint, the movie is somewhat impressive.
Between the stark B&W cinematography and the fact that this looks like a cross between Polanski's Repulsion and The Tenant, I'll give it a shot.
Is this the episode of The Spoils Before Dying that IFC forgot to air?
Yeah, the dichotomy of Jesse's personality is a sight to behold in that movie. I couldn't stop watching it, but there were times when I felt like I shouldn't be watching it. You really feel like you're witnessing a guy having a full on mental breakdown before your eyes. As a viewer, I felt strangely empathetic for…
That's incredibly depressing, but not altogether that surprising. It seems like the music industry is rife with stories about A&R types who hate music. I would imagine there were all kinds of fringe benefits (especially back then) to having that job, but it boggles the mind to think that someone would get paid for…
I've got mixed feelings about Spike, but you can't say the guy doesn't put his money where his mouth is. Kanye on the other hand…
Well, when you exacerbate your bipolar disorder with yes men and heaping amounts of cocaine…
I agree. He's definitely a director I've been keeping tabs on. I just hope he maintains more consistency than David Gordon Green, who's another NC School of the Arts grad.
Nichols and Shannon are three for three so far (including Shannon's limited role in Mud), so I'll hold out hope that this will be good. I have to admit that the trailer isn't doing too much for me though.
It really is. I think every sample ever should come with annotated minutiae.
You really can't beat the one-two punch of Did You See the Words and Grass that open Feels. Did You See in particular is probably one of my favorite road trip songs of all time and I've put it on a many a mix CD (yes, I still make those). Animal Collective is one of those bands that I'm somewhat hot and cold on, but…
I'm glad that someone brought up the Ramis story. I grew up watching Murray's movies religiously (Caddyshack, Meatballs, Stripes, etc.), but at a certain point his antics start to reek of arrested adolescence/immaturity rather than anything else. I remember an interview with him early in his career (circa…
Yeah, that snippet of dialogue is pretty groan inducing. I used to be a big fan of Crowe, but as I've gotten older it just seems that so much of what he produces is written in this vacuum that has little basis in reality. The guy has led a pretty charmed life, so maybe he's somewhat removed from what normal people…
I think you're on point about the Segura special. It wasn't necessarily bad, but it was somewhat drawn out. I think I would've preferred a tight twenty minutes/half hour along the lines of a Comedy Central Presents format.
Agree about the material. I love Hannibal and was really excited to watch this, but it was… just okay. That being said, I'm glad he's getting more exposure and look forward to anything he does in the future. This was definitely more entertaining to me than some of the other recent comedy offerings from Netflix like…
Forgot that he was in Limbo (no joke intended). Glad there's another Sayles fan on here.
