I think MFA would be great. Being around with people that really (in most of the cases) wants to study something is a very good idea. A common graduation has too many people that are going to discover that did a bad professional choice, and are gonna discover would be happier studying medicine.

I must confess that I like the first half of the first movie. I think it has a more… constant presence of its producer…. Spielberg. But the other half is just a bunch of explosions with those big robots. The movement of the cameras is so frenetic that u simply get lost. You cannot know which robot is evil, which one is nice…. Really…. it’s not good…. And it is certainly the way Bay likes…..
Blindness. I decidedly prefer The COnstant Gardener over rather than Blindness. But The Happening is a lousy mess. The plot is terrible. Hey, Joshua… sorry… but The Happening is not a bad movie. It may be not a major success…. but it has some good moments. Your hatred won’t define the quality of a movie…. sorry about that
As a brazillian…. all I can say is that Bus 174 is still a masterpiece. Garapa is good… but… I have seen too many movies with the same theme. If you don’t live here, this dock will be really shocking…. but… there are too many movies about the same stuff being produced here… all the time. Tropa de Elite is a good movie. Decidedly, not one of my favorites, but I think it’s ok
Hey, Joshua… you wrote this: “Blindness is a bad movie. It’s a series of nonsensical anecdotes…”. I swear I’ve read it! hehehe. And… hey! I saw in ur profile that you like Monte Hellman. Man… this guy is fantastic!!! It’s a pity it’s so hard to find his movies here. (However… he also has some terrible films too)
Hey, Fredo! Maybe! hehehe But Saramago liked it a lot…. and he won a nobel prize. Who can you trust? :) But like I said… I really… REALLY prefer The Constant Gardener… and City of God I dont even need to say anything about it
Also…. I dont know if Saramago can analyze an adaptation of one of his books so well… really… maybe he can see the flaws better? or… maybe he became “blind”?
hey, Fredo… Blindess scored 42 in rottentomatoes… not less than 30. hehehe
It may be not exactly a good movie, but The Happening is a huge and awful mess comparing to it
Hey, Fredo!!! Army of Shadows is wonderful. Jean Pierre Melville is my favorite french director. Have you seen Le Samouraï? This month I watched Battle Royale. A fantastic japanese movie based on a mangá.
And Berjuan… I agree with you. I apply the same feeling to Buñuel and Michael Powell.
Yeah… he was really interesting. Andromeda Strain is so good. It has a really strange edition. The way he splits the screen with photographs and the man with that suit….. watch it!
Im from Brazil… and all I can say is that every time we lose any game, it’s a shame. It should be our duty… to win ALL the games. Sorry, but that’s a fact. Our worst enemies are ourselves… because of the attitude of our players, we lost the last cup. And we had a dream team
I think Brazil is the only team in ALL cups… even Italy, Germany and Argentina were disqualified at some point in their history. But I confess I was quite happy when I saw USA playing a REAL game! USA and Brazil already have some of the mest female teams in FOOTBALL (and NEVER soccer) hehehe
Someone said that Battle Royale is a boad movie. And I say this is a bad choice. It’s AWESOME! The worst? All movies made by David Zucker or Uwe Boll are atrocious
Films that made you physically ill after watching about 3 years ago
@neil @nessa Indeed… Haneke is a master. Another freakie that makes me feel quite ill is Takashi Miike. The Audition is quite a masterpiece.
@Jaspar Lamarr Crabbe Saló may be the most radical film ever made. I don’t know…
The way Oldboy ends is quite disturbing too
