My favorite NBC show is either Homonym or maybe Celebrity Homonym.
 
12 years a slave.

was kinda avoiding it cause i already knew exactly what it was going to be, and it was... brutal as fuck. i dunno seeing stuff like this u know it happened to people, can't hide the past but its not a film u can just put on like some easy shit to watch "O HEY LETS GET THROWED AND WATCH 12 YEARS A SLAVE" nah, save that for something else. prepare yourself.

with that being said, excellent film =)
 
Jennifer Lawrence, actually played the creepy/psychotic kid in Orphan when she was like 12; they look nothing alike.

No she didn't, Isabelle Fuhrman player Esther.

Technotise: Edit & I

I watched this today and fucking love it. It reminds me a little of Serial Experiments: Lain, with the technologically enhanced parallel personalities.
 
I saw Paranormal the Marked ones Last night and the movie was ok but the ending didn't make sense. They tried to connect the ending to the events that happened from the first movie but it just didn't do it for me.
 
"Thursday"

On Netflix at the moment. A very good "fucked up day" movie from the director of "Swordfish." (better than that, came before, him perfecting his style, with some cast that became more famous later)

About a guy who left a career in drugs and killing to get married and have a life. One day he gets a call from his old partner and his quiet Thursday at home turns into a mess...

Kind of like Snatch mixed with Natural Born Killers.

Wonderfully acted, of course, but damn was this movie depressing! I really needed to up my dosage of Prozac after this one. Feel good movie of the year, this isn't.

The Wolf of Wall Street

Fantastic fucking film. The narration style is very much in the vein of Goodfellas , as is the use of humor during heavily dramatic scenes. There has been a strong buzz going around about this film, and rightly so. It's one I'll be rewatching again, and will probably be up there as one of my favorite Scorsese films of all time.
 
Drinking Buddies

an awkwardly realistic portrayal of functional alcoholics. not much else. a bit of mumblecore dialogue. i hate that word, but i guess i have to acknowledge it. wikipedia list this movie as mumblecore. the word sounds like some over-specified variation of whiney punk music with effeminate vocals that only middle schoolers know about.

i watched the first half with friends who stopped by to have a few beers before heading out of town. it was a lot funnier while they were here. because we were talking i got a little lost in regard to the plot. it wasn't hard to catch up once they left. kinda has "the life is weird and often uncomfortable as fuck, but pretty too" theme of Lost in Translation, but with the love circle play of a woody allen movie. without the character of either.


The Place Beyond the Pines

i like ryan gosling's character. things quickly go downhill. then it's a so-so movie about stuff that makes a person angry and sad. it did not earn pissing me off. it still went ahead and tried.
 
the great beauty. i'd describe this as an meditative film. described as a modern take on la dolce vita. in short, as a writer turns 65 in rome after living a life of hedonism begins to ponder how "it" came to this. would resonate if you're italian im sure but you can apprecaite the beauty regardless. the city of rome is the real star of the film here.

I posted about this in the Netflix thread recently. Mumblecore, hmm? Must everything be categorized?
 
Saw Mulholland Drive for the first time recently. It was a few days ago, but it's been really stuck in my head. It was whacky.

I don't know if I could have figured it out without looking it up. Maybe if I thought about it more, but I pretty much read up on it immediately after I finished. Something about that movie was unsettling. I think it's only the second David Lynch movie I've seen with the other being Blue Velvet. As unsettling as that movie was there was something about Mulholland Drive that was disturbing on a certain level. Though nothing in it was creepier than Dennis Hopper huffing out of that tank.


Silencio. Silencio.
 
^Muholland Drive is amazing! I saw it years ago and I loved the uniqueness of it

I saw Devil's Due last Tues and the movie was ok except for the part where they used the camera concept which kinda makes me think that they copied Paranormal.
