...i think i saw a movie by kurasowa that was really good... but i cant remember the name... "____ in august" i think... about kids visiting their grandparents.. and learning about the atom bomb attacks |

see ikiru. it really is one of the best movies ever made. |
||||||||

I just had a thought, although I've never seen it... Run Ronny Run is entirely undervalued because it's never going to be released. I love Mr. Show, it's probably the greatest sketch comedy shows ever produced in America. I heart David Cross. |

I say Rawhead Rex by Clive Barker! Old film, cheap film, many say crap film but I love the way the film admits that not all beasties appear & kill without the majority of humans seeing - everyone see's him! Also - Nightbreed, a horror based with the beasts being the good guys and humans the bad!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Dark Crystal!! Hehehe - classic in its day! Flim-flam....Nightbreed was great wasn't it? |
||||||||

Hedwig And The Angry Inch If you liked Moulin Rouge... well, Hedwig isn't really "better", just "different". Instead of boisterous and hollow, it's deep and poignant. (But still loud and stylish and hilarious) Instead of cartoon characters and themes, it's real and human and thoughtful. |

rhapsody in august,its called. theres so many undervalued movies,has any one seen Freeway,with reese witherspoon and keither sutherland,a brilliant interpretation of little red riding hood? |
||||||||

thanks, LeCoeur. lets see if we can reanimate this topic.. how about "after hours"? I've only seen it once - such a scary film, almost hallucinogenic.. |

Withnail & I > classic British comedy fare Shower > Intriguing Chinese social analysis Red violin > Samuel L Jackson as an auctioneer, charting the life of a historical instrument... really quite gripping in a subtle way A.I. is a pile of over-rated bollocks, & this topic is for movies that DIDN'T get highly publicised Hollywood releases ... so there :) |

The Hong Kong film 'Wo Ai Chu Fang' is a masterpiece along with the German film 'Das Leben ist eine Baustelle'. You MUST see these films! They are truely wonderful pieces of film. |
||||||||
|

Tim Burton's "Sleepy Hollow" is a very entertaining and visually beautiful film that is often overlooked |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Louis de Funès movies, Terence Hill & Bud Spencer movies... especially in the US! :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sleepy hollow yes. but one movie that no-one ever knows is the heavenly creatures. it's one of the greatest. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OMG.....i thought i was the only one to see that movie!!! i have the DVD.....it's visual are fantastic and i believe it's the first preformance by kate winslet!! i almost mentioned it, hahahahah ------ sleepyhollow visuals...cinematography were fantastic....but the movie was not GREAT IMO |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd still like to see de funes movies in ENGLISH......ehehhehe especially CABBAGE SOUP!! |
||||||||
|

lecoeur, you have AGAIN impressed me. when was the wedding again? and where'd you get the dvd? i haven't found it _anywhere_, but you really can't find anything decent here in finland. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I've wanted to see Heavenly Creatures because I love Peter Jackson, but I've been sticking to his older gore films, like Bad Taste and Dead Alive, both of which are excellent works of horror. Another film that I really liked was Time and Tide, the Tsui Hark action film. It's got incredible style. Pomme De Terre: Nice choices, I'm also a big Jim Jarmusch fan. Also, have any of you seen a film by Samuel Fuller? If you haven't you should, any film by him is amazing, but The Big Red One, Shock Corridor, and Underworld USA are probably my top. I also think Il Mostro (The Monster) is one of the most overlooked comedies. |

...i just have a thing for movies where girls go crazy, so maybe i should mention girl, interrupted and virgin suicides here too. allthough they are not quite undervalued really. |
||||||||

|
|
most of vincent gallo's movies |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

hahahah how about on the summer solstice? well actually i found it for 7 dollars US in Vancouver Canada (i go there quite often) and they have the MOST amazing prices on movies and music. it was such a great deal that i HAD to get it! when i go back up there and see it for that price again....i'll get ya a copy for sure!! have you read any ann perry novels? she's a victorian mystery writer. she is ONE of the girls from the movie. i can't remember which one. but she changed her name and is now a writer....after gettting out of prison.......INTERESTING huh =0) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you should definitely see baise-moi then (if you haven't yet) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'll make a note of these :) and lecoeur, i'd be so happy if i'd get that one! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i do and i DONT wanna see that movie. i dunno ..... sounds a bit HARSH and while i am used to some of that stuff.....sometimes i prefer not to see such movies that will effect me negatively. i wonder if that movie will ever be available for rent in the US? thats the question. ------ i'll keep you in mind with the movie.....and well do a trade for something finnish....perhaps chocolate?.....ahahha |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Bufallo 66!!! Totally forgot that one... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
chocolate :)(: every girls best friend. well if you want some finnish music.. maybe that would be good. does anyone know of a movie called 'planet of the drags' or something? it's an old cartoon and it's really good. i saw it once long time ago and i'm not sure about the name, but it came back to me when j-lo was watching in the movie 'the cell'? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
absolutely i'd be interested in finnish music! i've not heard of that movie...although i have the movie 'the cell' i'll have to check it out next time i watch it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you are refering to baise-moi, i can tell you that is not any good its just "girls behaveing badley" but i totally recommend you railroad man, a japanese movie that i saw recently, and its absolutely beautiful another one that i highly recommend is eureka-also japanese mobvie with a beautiful story |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks for the recommendations. it can be difficult to find foreign films in the US .....ESP japanese but i will look for them! =0) |

HEAVENLY CREATURES.. LeCoeur and Neetta: I am in love with you both. I've seen it twice in the cinema and a few times on video. its in my top 10 best films. the murder of the mother is so horrific.. I think it was the Kate Winslett character that became the crimewriter.. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
The Day the Earth Stood Still scary.. |
||||||||
|

|

now i found that animations info. it's La Plánete Sauvage, french/chzeckoslovakian (how on earth is that spelled) animation made in 1973 by Rene Laloux and some other guys. So if some of you bump into this one i'd strongly recommend it. |

The Count of Monte Cristo- solid example of good guy/bad guy, good guy wins and gets the chick My Girl- who doesn't cry when Thomas J dies?? Cannibal: The Musical- frappin funny because it's incredibly random, and it makes fun of musicals... |

neetta: you might want to look up the plot for "baise-moi" on imdb before going out and renting or buying it.. lecoeur: you can't send neetta dvd's cos we're in region 1 and she's in region 2 or another region. either way the dvd's would be useless to her (unplayable) unless she has a dvd player purchased in north america. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

jabizzy: no offense to your personal tastes but i thought the movie adaption of the count of monte cristo was horrible :( at least the 2002 version was, i don't know if there are older stabs at the book. but the novel is one of my favorites and the story is really terrific. the saddest book i've ever read for sure. the 2002 film changed way too much of the story. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've got a dvd rom that plays both i think :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just watched 'Showdown in Little Tokyo' that was good, anyone remember it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what's the point of that region thing anyway? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dvd rom cracks are used for that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cool......i'll send it anyway cos it's only 7 dollars....it's worth it. qrter....i told you i LOVE your taste in movies....ehehehe ------ they have the trailer for baise moi on imdb as well neetta if you wanna check it oot! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'll check that out at school tomorrow. i'll be so bored anyway :) but does anyone really know what is the point in these regional dvds? why can't they all just be the same? |
||||||||

region locked dvd's are intended to prevent people in other countries from seeing movies that are in their movie theaters (or haven't even arrived there yet), or in the most capitalist scenario, to prevent people from spending money on imported dvd's in case they're cheaper than ones bought in local stores. |
