yea i got it for $10 myself.. great movie, cool bonus features too. no, daren aronofsky (director & co-writer) didn't direct american psycho. his other really notable film was requiem for a dream. |

Ahhhhh thats it........My bad....You have to forgive me, I have been up all night working... Thanks worth....BTW - Requiem is a dope movie too, I still did not enjoy "American Psycho" it was even more boring than the book..... Anyways...yeah man for 10 bucks....its a steal. |

word up. yea requiem is one of my favorite films actually. another great dvd. i just finished american psycho, the book. (haven't seen the movie yet, i was waiting till i finished the book.) i found it boring for the first 50 pages, then i got into it. i think it's worth reading. i hope to see the movie soon. |

To mee the book was a little "too detailed"...I just did not like the fact I was readin 3 pages about his hair care products and skin cream. Not the "worst" book ever written....The book is definately better than the movie... IMO.... Have you heard the "Requiem" soundtrack?..... |

yea, the luxury descriptions were a dull read, but a lot of the messages the author conveyed were done not through plot but writing style - he really pounded in the materialism and vanity of the character with the EXCESSIVE descriptions. yes i've heard and love the requiem soundtrack. i wish there was a bit more variety in the soundtrack, but that definitely has to be the best theme song for a movie in ages. |

Agreed...... One question.... Was "requiem" a book made into a screenplay? |
||||||||

I own both Pi and Requiem on DVD. Yes, Requiem was originally a novel written by Hubert Selby Jr, and Darren Aronofsky co-wrote the screenplay with Selby. Both excellent, excellent films. Clint Mansell does great work on the scores for both. |

Is the "Requiem" novel worth checking out?.... If the saying is treu - "the book is always better"...I guess it must be a classic |
||||||||

Check out "Last Exit to Brooklyn" for the guys best known book....you'll get a good idea of hi style from there...it's pretty coll and gritty... Recommended.... (They made a movie of it too, but the book is better).. And yeah, PI + REQUIEM on DVD are must haves....also you can get a screenplay with his filming diary etc. Thats a pretty good read if you like the movie enough..)... Don't watch Requiem on Drugs tho... |

American Psycho is my favorite book of all time I didn't read it, I lived it |

Psycho is a FAB book. The film is pants though, it doesn't make any sense compared with the book. The film makes out like he's just imagining the whole thing, but theres no doubt in the book that it's his imagination. Plus the book is much more graphic and sexy =o) |

I have both the Pi and Req soundtracks.......Pi is definately the better of the two. i heard the author of Req is quite amazing, seeing the movie made me want to read the book! i disliked both the move american psycho and the book (i never could finish it) |

Yeah PI was a good movie to own on DVD |
||||||||
|
|

Requiem Is pretty dark, good though. I want to get Pi on DVD. |
||||||||

Mmm...pie... Er, the movie's great, too. |
||||||||

Love both & Requiem and their soundtracks. Just a little pissed that the Australian DVD of misses out on a few extras like a making of... Please tell me it's crap :-) |

Tried to do the "pi" symbol, it doesnt show up :-) That should be Love both pi and Requiem, and the Pi DVD is the one missing a few extras. |
