csidle posted:Any movies in the style of Cast Away / Robinson Crusoe, that deal with isolation and survival? Kind of a parody/fun spin on the isolation thing, but Castaway on the Moon was great. Gringo Heisenberg fucked around with this message at 07:02 on Sep 2, 2011 |

penismightier posted:The Chaser. The Chaser so hard. The Chaser is so brutal and just "gently caress you" in general, it's a great ride. I Saw the Devil is really, really, brutal too, but some people don't like the premise of it. Korean movies in general usually show violence in a way that I'd imagine is very realistic and brutal(but I've never been hit by a hammer).

What are the best Robin Williams movies that aren't comedies? I've recently watched What Dreams May Come and World's Greatest Dad and enjoyed him not trying to be funny.

It's from 99', but I think you'd like Bringing Out the Dead if you haven't already seen it. Directed by Scorsese, starring Nicolas with John Goodman, Ving Rhames, Tom Sizemore. It follows an insomniac Nicolas Cage as he works night shift driving an ambulance in the really poor/dangerous parts of Manhattan. Little bit late, but BOAT SHOWBOAT posted:What are some of the best and most essential films from the East Asia region, specifically China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea and Japan? I understand that this is an incredibly broad question, but I'm doing a subject this semester on Asian Cinema. Obviously it will have its own film list, but I'd like to see a few things beforehand since I'd be going in almost entirely cold aside from Park Chan-wook, Ang Lee and Miyazaki movies. I'm by no means looking for an exhaustive list (you can if you want!) but just a few great films from each of those countries, both classic and recent.

How about Bon Cop, Bad Cop? It's a crime/action/comedy about an Ontario cop and Quebec cop that have to begrudgingly team up to solve a murder. Oh, and hockey of course. Not sure if that was what you were looking for, but I found it hilarious.

Samuel Clemens posted:Ip Man 3 came out this year, though I haven't had a chance to see it yet. The previous two films are sort of a mixed bag, but the action was well-choreographed. And if nothing else, Donnie Yen facing off against Mike Tyson sounds like a treat. I heard it's a pretty short fight and it isn't a very central one, since Mike isn't a huge part of the movie or something. When I heard about it I was expecting him to be the big baddie and a final fight kind of like Ip Man 2, but apparently that isn't the case.

Kvlt! posted:looking for movies where the main character becomes increasingly deranged/nuts/batshit. Can be any genre, comedy, drama, whatever. Vampire's Kiss is a good example of hilariously deranged, but feel free to throw me some dark poo poo too. How about Take Shelter? Also has Michael Shannon.
