100 Movies, 87 Days


I really doubt I'll be able to keep up this pace for the rest of the year. It's kind of exhausting, tbh.

What were your top 3 or top 5 movies from that list? Also had you really never seen The Fifth Element before? That surprised me for some reason. Was Punch Drunk Love worth watching? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm also curious how you watched all the foreign films? I remember you posting a lot in the other thread and you had been watching a lot of Korean(I think it was them?) films, but was curious if you were renting them through Netflix, if they're on instant watch, or was it through some other source?


I'm definitely going to have to start branching out into more foreign films if I keep watching as much as I am, or watch increasingly worse American films. I've only ever seen a handful of foreign films. The other night I did watch the German film The Lives of Others (Das Leben der Anderen) [2006] which was a really great movie. I admittedly don't know all that much about the conflict between East and West Germany, but I thought that was a moving storyline, with really great acting, music, and great pacing.

Lost in Translation
Metropolis
A Woman Under the Influence
Dodes'ka-Den
The Great Dictator

I'd seen bits of it on TV from time to time, but never the whole movie. Pretty decent flick.

Was Punch Drunk Love worth watching?

I think most movies are worth watching at least once, especially Paul Thomas Anderson movies. It's probably my least favorite PTA film, but it's definitely the best thing Adam Sandler has ever done.

About 95% of the films on my list were streamed through Netflix or Hulu. I pirated a few, but I've been mostly legit this year.

it's my favorite paul thomas anderson film! very worth watching. one of the better movies ever made! though it often gets either a love it or hate it reaction.
 
Tough question. I really love all of his movies for different reasons, so I'm not sure which would be my favorite.

My knee-jerk response is Magnolia.
 
yup, i think he is one more the more consistent, solid directors. There Will Be Blood is the weakest. still awesome. am yet to see The Master.

i haven't seen Magnolia in a few years.
 
Boogie nights combined PTA epic conception with accessibility. Love it hard, but I really dig his later films too, they're just not as fun.
 
This week is the Palm Beach Int'l Film Festival. Granted, it's not Cannes but hey. I'll still enjoy it. :)
