Convoy A 70s trucker moving starring Kris Kristofferson, based on a novelty song about CB radios, and directed by Sam Peckinpah. WTF?
Also has Burt Young as a trucker driving for Paulie's Trucking.

9/9

One of the few films on record as being "directed" in a months long alcoholic blackout.

The semi versus police car action is very reminiscent of The Road Warrior.

I don't recall if he's mentioned it but I assume he's a big fan of Duel too.

It seemed to me that Nashville did have definite arcs, they just weren't very punctuated. My favorite was the infidelity story with Lily Tomlin's character. I also really loved the one with the girl who had sex appeal but couldn't hold a tune to save her life. Most were definitely low key, but I found each one really compelling.

The songs punctuate the character arcs - "I'm Easy", "Bluebird" and "Never Get Enough" are good examples but the best is "Idaho Home", where a mental breakdown leads directly from a song about a rambling reminiscence about hard living.

I'm pretty sure it was announced as two parts to begin with and they didn't call it IT: Chapter One or whatever because they weren't sure how it would do.

Ok, that makes sense. Guess we should be looking forward to chapter two then, because chapter one already seems to be successful and well received.

I appreciate them not being presumptuous about it, but they really should've had more confidence. It's only two parts, not seven.

mother! is really great in the sense that 100 people can watch it and you'll see 80 different interpretations of what the film was trying to say. If that sounds cool to you, see it.

Freaked is the movie my life has been missing. If you think Pete and Pete or Good Burger are good and funny and cool, you will love Freaked and you should see it. If you are a teenage girl you might not since test screenings of them hated the film so bad it was practically wiped off the face of the Earth (according to the introduction given to the movie by the guy who introduces the movies at this theater, a lone surviving print [only two were made] was rescued from the clearing house where they were sent for destruction). But I'm extremely glad it wasn't and it survived and I saw it.

I believe Alex Winter owns the other print and tours with it. Freaked loving rules.

Watched a couple of movies recently that really pissed me off with their endings.

First was Man Vs., which I didn't have high hopes for but was surprisingly well-acted and enjoyable right up until the monster reveal. Seriously some of the worst cgi and creature design I've seen in years, just so bad it ruined everything, why the hell didn't they just put a guy in a suit or something? Aaggh. So I guess 5/10, when it was a solid low-budget 7 until the last bit.

I feel like it would have been much better with no reveal at all.
