Blues Brothers 2000 is like watching a car crash.

Which happens to be the only part of the movie worth watching.

They should do a remake where nobody gives a gently caress what pat's gender identity is

Yeah, I was going to say - do watch BB2000, just skip the bits where plot happens.

Also try to find the extended cut of the original movie if you can. There's only one or two new scenes, but several of the songs are restored to full length.

From what I remembered of the movie, no one gave a gently caress about Pat's gender except for the one neighbour who was obsessed. But after checking the wiki it looks like a couple other characters did as well. Had no idea Tarantino was an uncredited writer for it though. Not really surprising in hindsight.

Most tv channels and DVD editions of the film are the extended cut. Netflix only has the theatrical cut for some bizarre reason. I knew something was wrong when the jailer didn't club Jake over the head at the beginning to wake him up.

Coneheads was pretty funny. One of those movies that got poo poo all over by critics undeservedly. It was no masterpiece but when it finally rolled around to cable I thought it was pretty funny.

A conehead appeared in Cyndi Lauper's Girl's Just Want To Have Fun music video and that's ancient history as far as kids today are concerned.

They even had an animated show in 1983, a full decade before the movie.

Anyone see the second season of Goliath? Good.

Spoilers anyway someone's head is cut off, which is bad. It is put in a box which is creepy. The box is delivered to the police with great hilarity on Billy Bob's part. So anyway later on a dramatic confrontation between a cop and a worse cop.

And the part where his drink is poisoned, he shows up out of sorts and "hung over" (in spite of being a raging drunk himself) tries to explain himself goes back to the hacienda and they're like, wtf are you talking about?

Very deliberate and hilarious take on a certain Cary Grant movie.

Man, how much fun do you think the production team had while shooting that? Just a few days of launching cop cars into an increasingly larger pile.

During the bathroom scene in The Shining, "Delbert Grady" never blinks.

John Hurt's character in V for Vendetta doesn't blink at all either, except for his final scene in the Underground station.

Really adds to the Orwellian, Big Brother, "all seeing eye" effect, and once you notice it the unending stare becomes quite disorienting.

Super underrated movie. Aside from the segment when Portman was in jail, that poo poo drags so bad to make a point the movie's already made that Oliver Stone would blush.

I don’t know if it’s true but I still remember how amazing the ending of that movie was. It’s not subtle at loving at all but his last line is just chilling given what you’ve seen in the movie. Gyllenhaal was amazing in it.

Yea he was phenomenal in that movie. The not blinking actually makes perfect sense for his character so I believe it.

Gosling doesn't blink in Drive either.

One great thing about Nightcrawler that is a purely fan-fiction level reading my mate has was about the music. I saw a couple of people say the music didn't really fit with how seedy the film is, but my mate said if you watch the film through Gyllenhaal's eyes it's almost like a John Hugh's "coming of age" tale as this weirdo discovers his true calling. And the music suits it perfectly.

edit: Decided to do some research before posting this and it looks like my mate was right...

https://carpetbagger.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/12/10/below-the-line-scoring-nightcrawler/

tl;dr Nightcrawler's weird soundtrack is a subtle and cool movie moment.
