I didn't think it was that bad at all, especially as this summer's blockbusters have been concerned. *shrug*

Where exactly is Tommy Wiseau from? His wiki says that he was born in New Orleans and lived in France "a long time ago", but his accent is clearly not french.
I'm watching The Room for the first time at the moment. It's not all that funny, just really incompetent. Okay, Wiseau's "laugh" is kinda funny.
I have a feeling Wiseau's accent is fabricated.
prince of persia was abysmal.
Watched my first full movie on VHS today in probably more than half a decade. Very exciting, got to rewind it and everything.
I watch VHS all the time.
:confused:
I'm a big fan of the film. The best part for me was when she watches the poles rattling at night. Beautiful moment. I think you'd probably prefer La Notte, it was my favorite form him for a while, although now I think I value each film in the 'trilogy' about the same but for varying reasons.
I find the more I see of antonioni, the more i love him. My first experience with him as indifference, my second was mild interest, by the third... i was completely entranced. I've revisited most of his work since and it all hits me like a truck, in the best possible way. I just rewatched L'Eclisse... god it gets me.
I was thinking more in terms of instant gratification versus subtle but long-lasting impression. Many big-budget movies go for the instant stuff, trying to wow with intensity over quality. I fully admit to being caught in the moment, but the taste usually leaves the moment I step out of the theatres. Looking over some of my favorite classic movies, my reaction while watching them is more tempered, but their flavours and concerns are more insinuating, lasting long after the credits have rolled.
(That being said, my absolute favorites have both...).
I watched the G.I. Joe movie yesterday and, I gotta admit, I enjoyed myself. Weed is great for lowering standards.
Hating on Prince of Persia, and loving on G.I. Joe. I love you guys. Thanks for making me feel better on a monday morning. :)
Has anyone seen Zhang Yimou's "A Woman, a Gun, and a Noodle Shop"? This is his remake of the Coen Bros "Blood Simple."
I was underwhelmed. The tone was all off. In one moment he's going for big slapstick comedy and the next moment contains gruesome, detailed violence. And the pacing was for shit.
Helluva difference from the guy who did Raise the Red Lantern and Qiu Ju all those years ago.
I was checking out site blu-ray.com and came across this picture.

Yeah, that's actually not Jason Bourne.
I love Keanu Reeves' Herzog impression here, regarding him directing Bill & Ted 3.
