What movies are you watching?

[LoathedVermin72]

It's really not like Gummo outside of being about poor people in the South. Gummo is disgusting and abrasive. GW is beautiful and pensive. I'd compare it more to Terrence Malick.

Not taking the bait.

Ha, I'm not trying to bait you. Apparently we just strongly disagree about movie categorizations.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I think you just hate the demographic that it depicts.

LV, What's your favorite Malick film? I've only seen The Thin Red Line in full, and parts of Badlands on TV.

I think The Thin Red Line is far and away his best work. Badlands is very good too. The only Malick I don't like is To the Wonder.

[Kaius]

That's not a movie.

[BurtReynolds]

Watching The Secret of NIMH again and taking notes.

The painted backgrounds in this movie are so amazing.

[Kaius]

No tracing, Burt.

[BurtReynolds]

I've decided that reproducing that look digitally is impossible. Only watercolor can do that.

[Kaius]

You talking about that kind of smooth, hazy look?

[LoathedVermin72]

The Secret of NIMH is gorgeous. Pure fucking analog magic.

[BurtReynolds]

it takes place on a farm, but looks like some fantasy horror world. I love that shit.

[BurtReynolds]

You talking about that kind of smooth, hazy look?

yeah you don't have much control over how the paint absorbs into the paper. That would have made me very nervous doing it in a production environment.

[BurtReynolds]

Also Scar is a total ripoff of Jenner.

[Dev]

That movie used to scar the shit out of me.

[BurtReynolds]

The owl scene and the ending are pretty intense.

My lady friend had never seen The Godfather films (she's seen barely anything, but that's another story), so over the last week we've watched the first two. She loved the first one, and didn't really enjoy the second. She thinks the first one had subtleties that the second one was missing, and the second one was a bit confusing.

I nearly ended the whole relationship right there.

[Kaius]

YES!

[LoathedVermin72]

Well, the first Godfather IS way better than the second.
