films: Movies that are a visual and auditory feast?

1.) Lawrence of Arabia (classic, and all those scenes crossing the desert at night are awesome)
2.) The Thin Red Line (that movie relied completely on visual and audio to get the point across, other than a few great lines by Sean Penn...and most of teh cameos sucked except for Woody Harlison getting his ass blown off w/ a grenade. That was cute. )
 
ok theyre selling this cd on(online auction site), it`s a real trip, supposed to be some hypnotic dvd, but i swear it is too cool to watch it while tripping/high, I`m gonna buy it soon
 
I really liked the Lion King, great color and good music (great to watch with a little cousin or other little kid).
 
Blade runner, a Visual masterpeice but then again it´s not that fun to look at for most people.. A very dark movie
Jurassic Park, amazing how they made it all seem so real (even the computer graphics). Music is the standard Big movie music score though.

It´s hard to believe that Petersko is the only one mentioning The Cell which
is a Master piece in the Visual department.
 
i found 'eyes wide shut' to be visually lush.

the second time i watched it, i was able to spend more time looking beyond the foreground. there are many beautiful shots in the movie - lots of excellent use of saturated light, etc.

the color scenes of "hero"
also, i've seen it so long ago that i'm not sure anymore, but i had found "crying freeman" very esthetic
 
Natural Born Killers
Moulin Rouge
Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn
The Neverending Story
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
The Fifth Element

What Dreams May Come

^^^The Best!!!^^^
 
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

It's just pure cinematic poetry. The music score compliments the Kungfu sequences well; the lyrical dialogues emerge charmingly. Everything fits in so darn perfectly.
Saw this on DVD again =D Still leaves me in awe. Yo-yo Ma's cello in the main theme makes me want to weep everytime I hear it.

^fantastic choice, cc. Even with all the fantastic pictures and sounds, they are all overshadowed by the perfect story. Very, VERY, stimulating drama. No other film illustrates the fine line between business and personal, in as many ways.


The most stimulating film to me, and nothing comes even close is Eraserhead, by lynch. The pinnacle of it being the sounds in the radiator. oh my fucking god every single time, regardless of psychoactive use or not. How the fuck did he synthesize that! And the baby! The eraser shavings! The suckling puppies! The puddle! And the "coconut" looking thing. Many MANY aspects of this film leaves me without a clue as to how it was done. And made in the 70's no less.

other noteworthy fillms:
Anything else lynch;
anything kubrick;
Katsuhiro Otomo and Hayao Miyazaki (mainly for visuals);
both Ghost in the Shell films;
the first 2 Matrix films and animatrix;
Pink Floyd The Wall;
Metropolis (both the original and the otomo anime(different stories));
Natural Born Killers;
Le Planete Souvage (The Fantastic Planet) (Old psychedelic french animation);
Requiem for a Dream;
Fear & Loathing, 12 Monkeys and Brazil (most gilliam actually);
Monty Python and The Meaning of Life (oh fishy fishy fishy fish);
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory;
oh and any Peter Chung animation (aeon flux, rugrats intro, dark fury, matriculated) (not really film but awesome visuals)


isn't this thread the same as the "Psychadelic film" thread?
 
moulin rouge is standing out above anything else that i may have seen at the moment. it's completely insane. i am convinced that director baz luhrmann was on drugs 24/7 when he was making this.
