What movies are you watching?

[Kaius]

Yeah I don't really care either.

[LoathedVermin72]

I think How I Live Now and Escape are also on Netflix. You might like those too.

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 don't see Escape. More info?

Seems like you enjoy movies that are maybe a little trippy? How about...

Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas
Eyes Wide Shut
Memento
Waking Life
A Scanner Darkly
12 Monkeys
Donnie Darko
Dogville
Brazil

Non-trippy movies that are also great:
Clockers
Barton Fink
Magnolia
Midnight In Paris

Or you could just binge watch S1 of True Detective.

I've seen the marked ones, and definitely liked them from what I remember. It's been years in most cases. I'll add the ones I haven't seen to my queue.

[epilogue]

Birdman
Wish I Was Here
Drinking Buddies
Mulholland Drive
Melancholia
Velvet Goldmine
The Butcher Boy

[Kaius]

Great. Now I'm overwhelmed.

[LoathedVermin72]

Way to go, guys.

[epilogue]

Away We Go is really great, too. You should check that one out, K.

From this list, you really should see Brazil and Barton Fink; based on the other things you've listed and/or said you liked. Not sure if you'd like Midnight in Paris or not, how do you feel about Woody Allen? I adore Midnight in Paris, FWIW.

And Magnolia is a brilliant film. But it's super long and not for everyone. Are you a PT Anderson fan in general? Have you seen The Master?

[Kaius]

I liked The Master, solely for the performances. It underwhelmed me otherwise.

What about There Will Be Blood?

[Kaius]

I love DDL. That's a good movie.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

i really love brazil too...i need to see all of the versions

[epilogue]

I love DDL. That's a good movie.

Cool. Then you can probably skip Magnolia for now. You should definitely see it eventually. It's another movie you'll really appreciate for the performances, which are across the board outstanding. Everyone is great in it. But it's over 3 hours long and people don't always "get" it or like it what its saying even if they do "get" it. I adore it and it's still probably my favorite of PTA's movies. But I didn't really care for TWBB outside of DDL and Paul Dano.

Me too! ... yeah, me too.
