Of course it's based on Kafka's Metamorphosis in which a successful middle aged man learns to be a better father after he is turned into a bug and hilarity ensues.

Anonymous Robot posted:Let's all work to pursue our dreams in the New Year. Never one to give up, I have decided to submit a follow-up application to Candy.com. My last resume may have been a little too boastful, so I've decided to turn it down a few notches and focus upon communicating my experience with humility and frank honesty. This is good and funny. I would hire you if I were Candy.com. As for dreams I am going to either go to film school or make at least one short film per month for each month of the year*. The second choice has the upside of being cheaper but the downside of me having to still do almost all the work myself and only having access to entry level equipment. *After I finish my current project of a found footage comedy series about potato chips that starts out like a vlog and slowly morphs into a conspiracy thriller after the protagonist is kidnapped by Doritos extremists. We've already finished filming the first 7 episodes and then the show will take a short hiatus while we film the final three since those require sets other than my apartment, a whole bunch of actors, special effects and by extension a shitload of planning.

Great minds think alike. We actually contracted Doritos, or the franchise owners in Iceland, and got them to agree to give us a Doritos flag to hang in the background of our hostage/torture video in which the main character is waterboarded with Mountain Dew, has teeth pulled out and is forced violently to eat Nacho Cheese Doritos even if he thinks they are only mediocre. For some reason they bailed out at the last minute. The funny thing is that this series started out because we wanted to do something that was very fast and ultra-cheap since our last project sort of fell through , at least temporarily, but when we actually got into planning and writing the series it became a lot bigger and changed genres near the end.

I recently bought an extra battery for my camera. I bought it of ebay because it was 80% cheaper than from any local store. It arrived today, the custom information said it was a toy car. Inside the box was a plastic taxi with the battery in a compartment inside it. The compartment looked like it was meant to power the car but the car was purely plastic with no electrical components whatsoever so the compartment was seemingly purely there for the purpose of smuggling batteries. Maybe it's some sort of wierd way to dodge customs fees or maybe those kinds of batteries can't technically be shipped except if their inside something. I just hope it doesn't explode when I try to use it.

The Cable Guy is basically a proto-Punch Drunk Love in that it's a established comedy actor playing a similar character that he usually does but in a more grounded context which really brings out how broken of a person the character is.

Calvinism makes sense, I mean how could free will ever be possible if God is omniscient because he couldn't really be omniscient if everything we do or think wasn't set in stone, but Calvinists seem to be dicks.

A remake of Birth of a Nation with an all Black cast. White characters are portrayed by Black actors in whiteface. Silas Lynch is the protagonist and in the end he slaughters the klan and founds a Black empire from the ruins of the South.Maxwell Lord posted:Oh another good remake candidate, Argento's Inferno. Suspiria's untouchable but Inferno desperately needed a stronger through-line. I'd keep all the Three Mothers stuff since that's sort of an interesting idea that wasn't explored well. Also the giant skeleton thing at the end, and the Keith Emerson theme. Didn't Argento become seriously ill during production so Mario Bava had to basically take over for him?

Egbert Souse posted:I've been meaning to see it. The only Franju I've seen so far is Eyes Without a Face. Haven't gotten enough courage to watch Blood of the Beasts yet. I took a horror class back in university. We watched Blood of the Beasts before watching Eyes Without a Face. The idea being that both films tied into the idea of horror being a way for nations to deal with historical trauma as put forward in Lowenstin's Shocking Representation, in this case WW2 and the Holocaust. The calm, professional, and almost mechanical way the animals are butchered supposedly mirroring the cold and calculated industrial genocide of the war.

Gorman Thomas posted:Holy moly I'm an hour into Metropolis (Kino restoration) and how the gently caress did Lang make this film in nineteen goddamn twenty-seven. It's pretty amazing but there was a lot of stuff like that in the 20s. The late silent era is one of the peaks of film as an art form. Filmmakers had gotten really good at telling stories visually since the visuals were all there was. The introduction of sound was a pretty big step back in some ways because having to worry about getting good sound often meant compromises had to be made on the visual front since the early mics were really bulky and clumsy hugely limiting the movement of both the actors and the camera. Basically taking film back to the 19th century for a few years. Not that all early sound films were like this. Lang's M is one of his best films and is a pretty early talkie. But I imagine that was a case of him using his experience and talent to find ways to work around the limitations.
