Yeah I’m unfamiliar with this wall-e controversy. Movie is great. I watched it Japan and it was perfectly easy to follow. I’ll probably pick this one up.

Chris Knight posted:It's leaving the channel at the end of the month, so don't skip Deep Cover if you can. Fishburne & Goldblum are perfect. Roth posted:That was a blind buy for me just based on loving both Fishburne and Goldblum and it's up there as one of my favorite movies. Thanks to these posts I managed to watch Deep Cover on its last day. Fishburne is amazing intense and intimidating in this and just dominates every scene. By contrast the antagonist cocaine suppliers like Felix just feel so meek. But it was fun seeing them tying heads of state to the Latin American drug dealers and politicians in a return to real conspiracies. Also loved seeing Carver get his proper comeuppance at the end.

I think it’s one of GDTs least enjoyable films. It’s got some good stuff in it, but it’s very pessimistic compared to the rest of his work.

Lots of Buster Keaton now out on the channel. I’ve never seen any. What are some favorites?

The General was interesting. All of the train duel stuff is fun in seeing the various ways the trains try to sabotage each other. But it is surprising to see such a pro confederate movie now while understanding this movie is 100 years old. I had watched city lights recently so it was neat seeing the different styles of Chaplin and Keaton.

Rooney McNibnug posted:A suggestion for the Inland Empire viewing: all the lights turned off and headphones, if possible. I should get some wireless headphones for my tv. Sound bar is nice but often have to turn it down at night.

Oh good to know. I was eying that shout factory version of wild at heart, but maybe I’ll wait. Though who knows if a better restoration will happen.

Picked up Mishima and Three Colors 4K. For some reason i thought Lady Vengeance was a criterion and was looking for that. Probably confused names with Lady Snowblood. Looking forward to watching Three colors for first time though.

Finally watched Inland Empire that i picked up in the last sale. It’s impressive how well the blu ray looks with all cray upscaling they did. Definitely a strange but captivating film that I am still thinking about. The Kyle/Laura Dern discussion and behind the scenes footage are interesting extras and show the more free form aspect of this one and filming it all on that tiny handheld.

Yeah I watched Tokyo Story recently and it felt pretty timeless. 80 years later and kids still want space from their parents.

Josie and the Pussy cats was a lot of fun. Kind of a Zoolander meets They Live as others have stated. Legit music too.

Also throwing out the On-Gaku support. That was cute fun, and loved he it would start mixing in various art and animation styles. Plus you gotta respect an epic recorder solo.

Not sure why he posted that on twitter for a release. Twitter is already a terrible place to expect discussion, but a release announcement isnt going to suddenly change because of your post.. I know nothing about the film but I am guessing he’s panicking for bad reasons here?

Hopefully that’s not a trend. Extras are often a deciding factor for me when choosing movies to purchase.

lol from that article Michael Bay is surprised that Criterion still exists past the laser disc days. Get him to the closet.

I was going to say they should add Bays first small indie feature like with Nolan and Following, but then saw Bays first film was Bad Boys followed by the Rock. So 4ks of both when.

I also quite enjoyed Bringing out the Dead. If you work in medicine or have family in the job, then the feeling of powerless in saving people with overwhelmed hospitals or people's poor choices feels real. Plus Cage.
