Laterite posted:the funniest thing about basic instinct is that it is an insanely gorgeous and well-made movie. great cinematography, lighting, sound, action, the whole package, in service of a ridiculously lurid trash story. Yes, in terms of how it is filmed it's very inspired by Hitchcock's Vertigo

Xaris posted:1997: TheSlutPit posted:97 seems like a good one. In addition to what xaris listed you also get gummo, perfect blue, austin powers, end of evangelion, spice world and a ton of perfectly acceptable 90s B action movies. Easy to pick 52 of those to watch without getting bored by december. no mention of BOOGIE NIGHTS on either list, for shame

holy moly, i never noticed the pregnant lady before And re: the first admiral being replaced, he gives a speech announcing his resignation, steps back ,and the new admiral steps up with him behind her. Imagine if we'd been able to replace our idiot leaders like that

Xaris posted:that is definitely one thing i lose out on by pirating everything is its hard to find commentary. every so often i download a rip with different tracks that start with commentary by default and get very confused for a minute and then like hell yeah I’ve never watched something with director commentary because of this (except The Wall). yesterday i watched boyhood and found it has a full commentary track, so I’ll probably watch the whole thing again later today. kind of excited to enter this new land… e: a recent 1999er I enjoyed was ghost dog, should be on the list mawarannahr has issued a correction as of 16:13 on Dec 19, 2022 |

Man it must be really nice to be so famous that they ask you to do commentary for a movie and you can just get drunk and MST3K it and they're just like "ok thanks mister affleck, we'll put this right on the special features disc" just fuckin tore the entire premise of the movie to complete shreds

Someone tweets it, an infinite number of Entertainment News sites reblog it, etc.

Watched The Holy Mountain for the first time a couple months ago, then put on the commentary from the director the next day. Good experience. He explains a very tall toilet from one scene in the movie as being a possible way to generate power through falling turds. Very elucidating.

Viva La Bam DVD commentary is the best. Fist fights, Novak nodding out and getting slapped, Dunn starting arguments for no reason.

Like how does the average runtime by year compare for movies with a budget of, say, $100 million or more since we're talking Avatar.

You just watch the film. maybe he has deleted scenes and some Q&As about the making of but even then there's no analysis of the film itself allowed. just stories of how nice it was to work with David, how david was so nice to hire me...

The idea runtime of a film made for adults is exactly 120 minutes, then 5 minutes for credits for kids 85, maybe 90
