I'm big on Joel Potrykus movies, they're full of nonstop antagonism and make me cackle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNMY6aVSGWU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q42qZ1oKnfw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGI0lfavk3E

Black Lighter posted:If you're a fan of Repo Man, you owe it to yourself to check out Walker, Alex Cox's biopic about the colonialist scumbag who went down to Nicaragua in the 1850s and declared himself President. Given how utterly scathing it is, it's amazing that Cox was able to scam the money out of Universal to go down and shoot it in Nicaragua at the height of the civil war, and it's not surprising at all that he got blacklisted from Hollywood for making it. Definitely check it out. Thanks for the recommendation!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burst_City?wprov=sfla1 Well I saw Burst City (1982) a month ago and I'm really proud of my effort. I saw it alone and took notes on what I liked and felt. It's a defining Japanese punk film through and through. Half b movie, half cyberpunk mad max battle royale style and 100% absolutely punk. It's also very doco and gonzo and it's kinda low key just a punk live music video most of the time. It deals with Classism Punks Nuclear power plant construction Eye patches A band that's so punk they only play live by hijacking and beating other punk bands off their stages 1980s Japanese youth listlessness. Just friggin guitar time I thought hell yeah I'm going to be growing with my choice of movie, this is vegetables, this is cinema, and I was so bored and distracted. There is the thinnest soup of a plot, and it's often a series of wild colourful movement action shots with no cohesive narrative. Plot lines start and stop abruptly. My flatmates wouldn't join me and I focused myself to finish it, even with how bored I was. I wish it had an emotional core, maybe a fish out of water character who suffers for us. I'm sure a punk film can be both extremely aesthetic and engaging but Burst City was only E.A. anyway. Punk 🧷 films forever! And I'm glad I watched it. I just wish I only listened to it while playing the visuals of any other film.
