Speed Racer over 2 years ago

It did what it set out to do very well, but it set out the be pretty unwatchable. And I don’t think it invented any new film language so much as devloped upon what Lars von Trier did in “Europa”

Based on your interests in Kubrick and Lynch, I’d start with Even Dwarves Started Small, then go to Little Dieter Needs to fly and I think you’ll be hooked

LOST HIGHWAY VS MULHOLLAND DRIVE over 2 years ago

i don’t think its fair to compare the two, in my mind they both stand as equals of similar themes but different natures.

LOST HIGHWAY VS MULHOLLAND DRIVE over 2 years ago

i guess for the sake of changing this accidental multiple posts, i’ll say that I think Lost Highway is a little more comprehensible that Mulholland Dr. Anyone agree with this?

LOST HIGHWAY VS MULHOLLAND DRIVE over 2 years ago

and just for changing up the multiples again…

speaking of continuity between these films, what do people make of the last scene in Inland Empire when Laura Harring makes an appearance, assumingly revising her role(s) from Mulholland Dr.?

Most wretched assholes in cinema over 2 years ago

Who are the characters who are just evil, vile jerks, who either fill you with immense hate or overwhelming dread? People for whom there is just absolutely no redemption, such as;

Nurse Ratched (One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest)
Frank Booth (Blue Velvet)
Hans Landa (Ingourious Basterds)
Gene Pingatore (Hoop Dreams)
George Bush (Fahrenheit 9/11)
The Colonel (El Topo)
