Drop Dead Gorgeous. Not bad, and anything with Miz Dunst in it is watchable, but really, there's a British film called Confetti that does the mockumentary thing so much better.

Coincidentally I just watched Confetti right now.

Quite pleasant, and full of people I admire on the cast. Sorry, though, the US still has the mockumentary sewn up. Unless you count the Last Horror Movie, which pwns everything in its path.

Not heard of that. Tell me more, give me some to track down...

Well it's not a comedy (although there is a whole lot of black humour), I only called it a "mockumentary" because the plot is about a murderer that is filming his own work, making a documentary about his killng spree. It's like a British version of Man Bites Dog, but I much preferred it. It wasn't really appropriate for me to namedrop it here because it's actually a pretty brutal horror film

By the way have you got Suspiria yet??!?!

For fuck's sake get you priorities right, Frigid.

meh, watch movies like "L'enfant", "Jeux d'enfants", "L'auberge espagnol" instead; much better french movies

is l'augerge espagnol that erasmus movie? if so it's pretty so-so. then again people who've been in the Erasmus program all seem to love it. maybe i'll watch it again after i do that (if i do that).

CRAZY is also an awesome french movie.

Watched most of 25th hour before work this afternoon. Edward Norton pwnz it up as usual, although his "fuck X, fuck Y" speach was totally a rip off of Tool! Good movie with interesting characters.

PS. Has anyone seen Lady in the Water? I'm thinking of taking it home tonight and was just wondering if its worth watching... the reviews on imdb seem to either love or hate it o.O

You, Me, and Dupree - 7/10

Yeah, that.

I also agree with the score. Pretty standard comedy overall. Nothing really great, but it's a movie you can pretty much just sit down and turn off your brain to.

The M.Night Shamalallallallallabingbang one? If you hated the endings of The Village and Signs, as I did, then apparently this is his worst yet.

FRW: Reservoir Dogs. Proof that people < Steve Buscemi.

Signs was about the dumbest movie I have ever seen. A bunch of aliens climb around on roofs for an hour and a half, and then realize that water is their doom. What the fuck?

Yeah I got like 25 minutes into Lady in the Water before turning it off because I had to go to work and I don't really plan on finishing it since it seemed pretty lame.

Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas

Dammit, I love Terry Gilliam.

Well, that wasn't too terrible.

Some British thing called Mr Inbetween or something. Maybe that's why I started drinking. Can't remember much about it. There was a man with some tattoos, and a kid.

Fuck, fuck, fuck. :sad:

What?

Also, Legacy: :dio:

HI THERE!

I need this right?

Impossible to walk in this muck.

He's a foreigner. I think he's probably Samoan. But that doesn't matter, though, does it? Are you prejudiced?
