mind game is great, you'd think there exist be more
animation films with such artistic freedom...

More looks interesting, never heard of that one :)

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang has too much gore for my tastes.

Shoes a bit like the ones this friendly fellow has
one, but without the white bit.

i don't know why but the first film that comes to mind is
2002 'Cypher'

A spy thriller, an existential thriller and a brainteaser
all at once, with great performances and hallucinatory
visuals it's main theme has similarities which obviously are
taken from the work of philip k dick.. and Lucy lui is in
it, mmm :P

Inland Empire, nothing can be more mind boggling (and
disturbing) than that. a good surround sound and large
screen set up are essential however for maximum effect, oh
and a dark room.

i love Cronenberg and haven't seen Scanners yet.

Inland Empire is Lynch's 2nd best after Eraserhead imo.

Celine and Julie Go Boating looks good.

Keep em coming :D

These deserve to be seen:

Akira (awesome animation)

after)
Dark City (Dark Conspiracies)
Naqoyqatsi (Immense on a cinema screen)
Rosemary's Baby (Satanist conspiracies)
Fitzcarraldo (Epic if you menage to survive the slow start)
Waking life (animated documentary on lucid dreaming)
12 angry men (Lumet version)

Forget the rest, I forgot about El Topo! What is El Topo?

El Topo is everything!

And if you like that, The Holy Mountain might be even
better! You have already seen these movies.

yes. well everyone keeps raving about Jodorowski, but when i
finally saw this, i thought it was overdone much, i.e. it
felt he was cramming *everything* inside that he could think
of. Same with Holy Mountain... is it weird to compare
Jodorowski to Matthew Barney? i really like Cremaster Cycle,
which also has a lot of this surreal symbolism, but much
more abstract which is good. Doesn't try to explain the
world so hard.

gonna check out the two French films you mentioned... also,
i've seen Solyaris and Stalker, what else from Tarkovski
would you recommend...?

You see, I'm the opposite. Didn't care much for Cremaster,
but I do admit it's beautiful.

The Sacrifice (Offret?) and the Mirror are the other two
Tarkovskys I've seen. I like all four about the same.

It's not strange to compare Jodorowki to Barney; both rely
heavily on set pieces.

Also, 'Veronique' takes place in Paris and Poland, but the
director, Krzysztof Kieslowski, is Polish. All of his stuff
is good.

Martyrs--while it wasn't that great of a movie, it still
played on my psyche because of it's immense brutality.
