I'll be out of town for the weekend, with an In-N-Out within reach. Is the Double-Double where it's truly at?

Animal style Double-Double and animal style fries.

WTF?

**MacGuffin** · 06-17-2010, 06:38 PM

That's not the final cover - it will probably end up only being the booklet cover.

God I hate that movie.

Hell, yes. All 27 hours of it.

I would say 3x3 animal style with just the regular fries, but yes, get your burger animal style. So much better.

Did you post your thoughts on Week End anywhere?

If you get your burger animal style, it comes with mustard and grilled onions, in addition to everything else. Animal style fries have two pieces of cheese, special sauce and grilled onions.

**Ezee E** · 06-18-2010, 12:49 AM

Hmm... the burger sounds good. Don't know about the fries. I'll give it a try regardless.

**Watashi** · 06-18-2010, 01:04 AM

I hate In N Out fries.

It's the only thing that holds the place back from greatness.

**Spun Lepton** · 06-18-2010, 02:09 AM

The one time I ate at In-N-Out -- all because of Lebowski, naturally -- I was slightly disappointed. I was expecting something amazing, and all I got was a better-than-average fast-food burger.

There was an end? Wow. I wouldn't have guessed. I watched as much as I could, but didn't make it through the whole thing. Congrats to Malick for inventing time travel, though. Making each minute last an hour is quite a feat.

As much as I'm expecting.

Better than Fatburger or Smash Burger?

Hey Skitch I'd like to introduce you to a friend of mine.

I think the two of you would get along well. You have a lot in common.

No, don't expect something on the level of a Fatburger.

EDIT: Then again, I never had a Double-Double, so I can't say it won't be an experience.

I hope so, considering that one just looks like a fan-made Criterion cover, and not a very good one.

Weekend

The Damned Utd.
The Hit
The Iceman Cometh

Ebert's review of The Governator's The Sixth Day amuses me. Because he's so wrong.

If he said it was good, then yes he's wrong. If he said it was bad, then he's right.

Quoting Sven (view post)

I'm pretty sure he writes serious material most of the time.

When he defends 2 Fast 2 Furious, I find it hard to believe that. But okay.

Winston I hope you like The Hit. I blind bought it last year, and thought it was quite good.

Weekend:

*Bigger Than Life
*Love and Death
*Homicide (the David Mamet movie)
*Trouble in Paradise
*The Naked Prey (which is a Raiders movie if I've ever heard of one)

The transparency of the Criterion tags are kind of hilarious.

**MadMan** · 06-18-2010, 04:22 AM

Also I don't care for the new thread title. The old one was better.

Burgers are crazy delicious. Typically the best ones are bbq-ued on the grill, of course.

Anyone wanna recommend any cool commentaries they've listened to or heard about?

Anything and everything I've heard from Donald Richie seems to be worth listening to more. I always face the issue of preferring to watch another movie, skipping the commentary entirely, and then simply watching the movie again at another time. Not that I really have a problem with commentaries - the ones where the commentators actually refer to what's occurring onscreen are my favorites. Anything that's fun and provides interesting information to me. I'd definitely considering referring to the Criterion Collection for this one.

I really thought the one with Mike Nichols and Steven Soderbergh for Catch-22 was great.

Coppola's commentary on The Conversation. He provides a fair amount of insight into the film and his thought processes throughout, but it's made great by his discussion of the dread of an overflowing toilet.
