I have been a fan of her work as a whole beyond just this two-part topic, so any lead on her work is a welcome.

Cool!

Still a stupid ass name.

If anything he’s a samurai or ronin... not a fucking ninja. Also just calling it “Batman Ninja” is hella basic, but whatever.

Rob Instigator · 04.30.2018, 12:37 PM

indeed.

it’s kind of a funny role cuz she plays jabroni to jennifer connelly haa haa ha haa

weird, i know, but yeah

tw2113 · 04.30.2018, 08:34 PM

Not sure which is worse, that I actively searched "Little children" or that I want to say "Schwing" to that actress pairing on screen at the same time.

a streetcar named desire

this time it worked out better than when i tried watching it on the old vhs rental with the cheesy 5-minute trailer and ended up turning it off

great brando performance of course and i recognized karl malden in the cast. while i was entertained, and some of the play’s lines were just fucking great, and some of the camera work and angles were cool, as a movie it didn’t 100% work for me. maybe i just found blanche superfuckingannoying? possibly...

great characters and inventions though. maybe it will grow on me further— already has since the first time i saw. or maybe i just need to read the fucking play so i can hate the movie. ha!

demonrail666 · 05.04.2018, 03:06 AM

Yeah, it doesn't quite work for me either. Probably more an iconic film now, than a great one.

jacques demy’s A SLIGHTLY PREGNANT MAN (1973)

i dont know how this was intended back in the day but i started it as a nostalgic euro-trash light comedy with two film icons in somewhat buffoonish roles, and it was that for sure, but it also went a little further with lines like “if men start to get pregnant they’ll have to legalize abortions” and other stuff like that which i don’t know how incendiary it might have been back in the dark ages of the 20th century ha ha ha ha. male pregnancy as the next step in human evolution. this isn’t really a spoiler because the title gave it away. at least the english title— the french one is completely different.

but yeah it wasn’t great or anything after all, just lighthearted jacques demy stuff with his usual bright color schemes, plus the two stars on it made it watchable in their own way.

!@#$%! · 05.05.2018, 09:15 PM

linklater’s SLACKER (1991)

it’s now on criterion, and streamable, and this is maybe the 4th time i see this? and it’s the time i’ve also liked it the most. strange, but it almost seems as if little has changed since then, except we now have the internet, and the jeans and the haircuts are different. maybe i live in a bubble. maybe i’m stuck there myself.

early on in the movie my wife commented on how it reminded her of altman, which i hadn’t notice, but of course now i know— it’s nashville! but in austin. and not even two decades later but it’s a whole other era & ethos and everything else. i watch nashville and i think “oh this is how it was”. i watch slackers and it feels a lot more like the present. not the same, but it’s pre and post reagan, ha ha ha ha. maybe reagan started a nuclear war and we’re already dead and stuck in bardo and haven’t noticed.

but anyway, yeah, a lot of fun to rewatch and more entertaining than earlier attempts. i remember the first time i was soooo boooored with it! and now i’m liking it ha ha ha ha. ok.

luis buñuel’s ROBINSON CRUSOE (1954)

i was expecting some surrealistic shenanigans but no! this is a straight reading from the novel. maybe a couple of little crazy buñuelian moments thrown in there but yeah, it’s otherwise a square movie for the squares, and the funny part is, it’s actually entertaining! oh yeah.

expectation—>disappointment—> surprise—> satisfaction, not a bad matinee

and lol@ “james” fernandez in that poster. jaime fernández was his name. was in only a bazillion movies. he got friday’d by the typographer!

decent movie tho furreals.
