i'm having a blast seeing New Moon getting CREAMED at the critics'. The futility of it all makes the tomato throwing that much more exhilarating and life-affirming.

little darlings come in, hearts pitter-pattering for the handsome, all knowing bartender. and in their wake, a parade of slobbering geeks with one hand on their crotches and one hand on their wallets. buttons were popping, skirts were rising. when you can see the color of their panties then you know you've got talent. and boy oh boy have you got it. stick with me son, i'll make you a staronce you get off the drugs and the alcohol, that's when you realise how dark you really are

Saw Haneke's 'White Ribbon' at the weekend, great movie. Not a single note of music - unless it is created within the scene, no fancy camera pyrotechnics, classically shot, LONG pauses, definitely a powerful and evocative piece of film making.
Must admit I hated the re-make of Funny Games, but White Ribbon is back to his best.

The story is super corny, but then it often is in silent movies. The character of the amateur policeman is very funny
It's a good visual trip basically, the story is really weak

Sounds good, Hidden was the same in that there was no score at all and a really minimalistic direction. Actually it's a pity it took an Austrian director to make such a powerful French psychological drama.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

watched the Limits of Control last night/this morning. such a tedious waste of time that it made broken flowers look like genius, and that movie sucked too.
i still need to download white ribbon. cache seems to be making it onto all the top movies lists of the 00's, but claire denis has every movie hers on the lists. saw anti-christ some time back and that was great. i loved how it just turned into an outright horror movie for the last 1/3. bless lars von trier and his demented soul.

looking for eric is possibly the best feel good film I have ever seen...
I liked broken flowers and the limits of control... i don't have the greatest attention span but there is something about the way jarmusch does slow that captivates me...
no 'wink wink, nudge nudge' intended.
I think it has to do with the music... but deadpan really suits me

klangspiel- looks intreresting, will check out. your taste in movies is impeccable.
Avantster- saw Tokyo Story for the first time last week. Loved it.
Watched Rengoku Eroica last night, thought it was absolutely breathtaking. Eros + Massacre is the only other Yoshida movie I've seen, so I wanna watch Coup d'Etat soon, before moving on to his other stuff.
Also saw Tokyo Sonata and liked it a lot.
