(why do i always think of that as the pixies lol. there's something there.) gilliam met john cheese in broadway, actually, in 1962. he crossed the pond much later just learned that from the python dvd extras the other day. but i always knew about gilliam because i watched brazil and fisher king before i knew of python's existence. for me it was the reverse-- "oh holy shit these animations are gilliam's ha ha", kinda. |

![]() Deadpool I liked the idea of deadpool but no way did he justify or was able to carry an entire film. He's fine as comic relief in another character's movie but for a whole film ... once you get past the wise cracks, its pretty empty. And if anything, Negasonic totally stole the show. |

the deadpool movie was fun as fuck man. It was exactly as superfluous, irreverent, pointless, and dumb as the deadpool comics.
AntMan was always a silly character in the comics so I was glad they did that movie in the same tone.

exactly! I LOVED Deadpool comics growing up. So when the movie was announced I was like (1) it HAS to be fun/funny/ridiculous/wall-breaking and (2) it has to be rated R, crass and violent as F. That's what the comics should have been in movie form, and that's what got delivered. I was ecstatic.

I think Gilliam is great (not stuff like Spies Like Us or Jupiter Ascending, but... y'know.. the twisted groundbreaking shit). He can be sooo bleak (Tideland... OOF!) Like, really, truly bleak as fuck and unsettling. But that's part of his charm. I love Brazil, Time Bandits, 12 Monkeys, Fisher King, he Python films of course. Even The Brothers Grimm and Inaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (Tom Waits as the devil!) kicked a bunch of ass. I always thought he'd be a great choice to direct the adaptation of American Gods (have you read?) with maybe Bruce Willis in the Shadow part. That was a while ago. Maybe Tom Hardy would be better at this point. Shrug. But instead they're doing a Game of Thrones type-thing with all the Norse God characters being played by Cuban dudes. Still looks cool as hell and I'm all for the reverse whitewashing angle, but I think Gilliam would have done a tremendous job on a Neil Gaiman adaptation. They seem almost made for a collaboration. |

Deadpool was as perfect an adaptation of its character as Nolan's films were of Batman. Great in totally different ways of course, but somehow equal in delivering pretty much EXAXTLY what I'd always wanted. I read an interview with Reynolds (God, I think it was in GQ) about the role, and man did he put his all into that project. The result was awesome. Almost don't want them to attempt a sequel because the chances of it being as good as the first seem extremely slim. |

One of my favs of the year. Park Chan Wook has been a bit of letdown with his last 2 films ("I'm A Cyborg But OK" and "Thirst") but this one, wow. Sensual. Funny. Surprising. Brutal. |

"Bring It On" because I needed some mindless background noise for a bit today.
