the remake of solaris is nothing compared to the Tarkovsky version. and I normally quite like Soderbergh's films. |

ps I know someone who got it from a Canadian DVD website. :) |

|
im thinking of buying this ive only seen hole in the heart and that fucked me up but supposedly his other films are really normal and quite funny! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"Lilya 4-Ever" is quite fucked up too, not as much as "hole in the heart" but you'll still feel like shit. "together" is sweet. where is "fucking amal" though? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hole in the heart wasnt that graphic or anything and when i watched it itw as aprolly a bad idea cos it kiled my mood, but every time i go see a film now we always end up talking about hole in my heart and how better it gets the more u dwell on it! was messed up but amazing. poor eric |
||||||||

|
|
isnt fuking amal about chavs living in a shit hole town? |
||||||||
|
|

by the way fuking amal is called show me love in england on that box sset! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Huh! I heard Hole in My Heart was really really graphic! Diddnt it have like close-ups of vaginal reconstructive surgery or something? Or am I just totally high on Snackwells hahaha :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
though I guess it depends on what we call graphic haha :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it did but ive seen way more fucked up things than surgery on films. its not really the graphic images that affect u, its the .... i dunno its the realness of everything cos its all filmed on dv. and the random crazy silioquies (sorry cant spell that). its just really tragic there are some funny moments. when is aw it in the cinema it was full of film students and theres a bit where the dad bursts in and shouts "come on son we are going to beat up grandad" and i laughed so loud i got such dirty looks, but to be honest any ray of humour found in that film needs to be clung to! so good, so moving! |

The remake of Solaris wins over the original becuase of the soundtrack which... I like. I wish they hadn't made out it was a "reimagining" of Solaris, because, no one who likes the original wants to see a remake, and it wasn't really, only vaguely, so why not call it something else, which it might as well have been, and let it stand on its own feet, which it could've done. IMHO. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha I cant handle certain things, honestly. I think Id be sick or burst into agonized tears if I saw that! I hate when people laugh at unfunny or inappropriate moments! I saw Dogville in the theater and people were laughing at the end--WTF?!?! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ive not seen that. but seriously i was so not expecting to hear a man burst in and tell his son they ahd to go beat up grandad. it was funny! |
||||||||

you've gone insane. the Cliff Martinez soundtrack is okay, music for melancholy yuppies sipping frappuccinos while watching the rain drop outside on their dreary city, but really no more than that. the Artemyev soundtrack is very electronic and weird and therefore more interesting to me. and Tarkovsky's "Solaris" has a much more daring and involving take on the whole story than the Soderbergh version, I think. I guess it's basically spirituality vs. psychology. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh I agree, but a. I have gone insane b. I might not have the money of a yuppie but I've developed the lazy mindset c. you do that math(s) |

There are alot of good films. Personally i really like: Donnie Darko, Requiem for a dream, Nowhere (garbage but i love it!), 2001, 1984. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I tried to do a bit of a dog_belch-thing there, with the yuppies and frappuccinos and crap, did you notice? you're my hero. sometimes. for a bit. um. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I absolutely 100% hate Donnie Darko :) (same goes for Fight Club and Memento... in case someone mentioned either of those) Requiem is great, but I like Pi better :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I picked up that you used my word dreary, and that's fine. I like you too, all the time, I'm not so fairweather or fickle. Alright. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Why do people go on about Pi and Requiem for a dream? Aren't they very ordinary / verging on bad films. Is it just beacuse of the soundtrack? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm one of the other 2 persons on the planet who doesn't see why "donnie darko" is supposed to be so goddamn amazing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I wasn't talking about liking you, which I do, make no mistake and most certainly all of the time - I was speaking of hero worship. |

I feel a bit emotional now, I'm going to watch "Tomb Raider" on tv, officially the 237th shittest film ever made, just... just becuase. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, i can't explain why, but donnie darko is a great, great movie. there is a lot of feeling to it that gives it a lot of weight, but it's sort of subliminal. it's like a dream to me, but it hits me in a sort of nostalgic way as well... it may be that one has to have similar experiences as the characters in the film to "get it" but perhaps not. it's surreal and heavy. i really like that film a lot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Pi fucking sucked. My favorite movie is the original Solaris. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
although I don't really want to get into endless arguments about this (because chances are with a film like "donnie darko" that this will happen) and although I didn't really ask you to explain in the first place, I'll try to explain from my side of the fence. to me it's the director posing all kinds of forced theories and then letting them act out as if they're actual laws of nature. the whole thing becomes a forced showcase for these theories that leaves me unaffected, not caring about anyone in the film. |

ok, there's no reason we can't discuss the film in a civilized way like we're doing now, is there? ;) i don't want to argue, i'm just giving my opinion like you're doing, mate. i know what you're talking about with the theories, but that never occured to me as being the focus of the movie. the theories are really unimportant to everything the film is about. so if you get hung up on them, i can see where that would bother someone (it would have bothered me if that happened to me). but you're really not supposed to get caught up in that, it's not really the point. i took the film in a much more surreal way - that's my interpretation. |
||||||||

i enjoyed donnie darko. supposedly it was filmed in 29 days? okay, i can believe that. otherwise though i thought it totally failed on emulating the time period and the story wasn't coherent enough. |

these are my some of my favorites that haven't been mentioned yet: scarface a philadelphia story the african queen what ever happened to baby jane? cool hand luke |

sex with mandibles flcl once upon in china 2 other shit shitcunt, the retun |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
flcl is really awesome, but isn't it technically a short tv series? i guess it seems like a long movie. also, other shit was better as a book imo. |
||||||||

I just saw Heat last night and it reminded me how good that movie is. Another one of my favorites. Best action movie ever although it's more of a drama at 3 hours and like 2 action scenes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I noticed some people mentioned donnie darko, its a great film but lacks explanation, its like saying the butterfly effect is the greatest movie ever, both do not explain the theories of time travel properly, you're just suppose to accept the theory and think 'oh wow!'. Bladerunner the original the texas chainsaw massacre: the next generation Interview with the vampire and probably many more I've forgotten. |

Generally uknown to most, Songs From the Second Floor is my pick. Though I feel a need to mention Kubrick's 2001 and Tarkovky's The Sacrifice, Songs.. remains, in my opinion, the best film I have ever seen. |
||||||||

"whats your best film ever made? i'd say either event horizon, boogie nights or fight club" haha, is this meant to be a serious thread? anyway my favourite film at the moment is Stalker by Tarkovsky. the best recent film i've watched is Pitfall by Hiroshi Teshigahara. |
