Mad Max
Mad Max 2
Still love both of these. This is one remake that I am quite intrigued by as well actually.

Even the third one with Tina Turner isnt as bad as people claim

Yes, yes it is.

TWO MEN ENTER ONE MAN LEAVES

It was decent till he is sent out into the desert.

The kids were annoying and the bit where they fly into the ruins of Sydney was ridiculous but it was no Waterworld

Waking Life: I love 'a scanner darkly' but this didn't do it for me at all, I like the look of it but the dialogue felt a lot like being forced to sit and listen to annoying philosophy students trying to out-do each other in a coffee shop (or in SNH).

Waterworld is incredibly dumb but it's still kinda fun, same as Beyond Thunderdome.

You can't compare a scanner darkly and waking life man.
2 different films.

Which is why I say you can't compare them.
One is a sci-fi while the other is a philosophical dream.

Yeah, they are very similar in plenty of ways though (director and visual style and some themes), one I really like and one I really didn't.

(sorry- edited that last post, I keep loggin in to different accounts by mistake)

I thought both were excellent.
I sample a waking life heavily as well.

Decided to start with Parks & Recreation, as I've been re-watching It's Always Sunny anyway.
Pilot got me hooked immediately, my kind of humour. Didn't know it was pretty much the same as the Office.
Not a bad thing at all.

Les Mis has some of the worst songs ever put into a musical. Watching it in the theatre with my Grandmother was one of the longest experiences of my teenage life. I admire anyone that can sit through it, but I will NOT be watching the movie.

I didn't know the storyline so that kept me engaged & there were a couple of songs made dramatic by being sung live (plus too many that were utterly tuneless). The barricades were too obviously on a stage set but there was some pretty good grot & slime.

Decided to start with Party Down. Has anyone seen it?
I´m a big fan of The Office & Parks and Recreation, but both current seasons are a bit shit.
Nevertheless Parks & rec has some of the best characters on TV:






back 2 movies: I´m gonna watch Django tomorrow

I would sample waking life if I produced lol. Amazing film. Do you have any bits on your soundcloud that sample waking life?

Think I'm gunna watch all superheroes must die tonight, got a 2.9/10 on imdb so looking forward to that haha.

[noam]

big love for Waking Life

it and A Scanner Darkly are really very different films, only linked by director and art

for a start A Scanner Darkly was written by Philip k Dick and has a plot...

[ehbes]

i mean it was interesting...but very odd. i guess thats what you get with Fellini

[Liam92]

Really enjoyed this one

Also, Maria Bello

Proper harrowing and depressing film, really hard to sit through the last half hour.
Good, but definitely one that you watch once and never again.

I was actually embarrassed to be watching it so i quit after 20 minute. The dialogue was cringeworthy.
