trying to jack off posted:watch bad boy bubby and forbidden zone in one sitting so i have a reason to read the dream thread again lol. i was trying to do the 1001 movies to watch before you die list for awhile, i had this whole system, and i did have some hosed up dreams when i was watching like tarkovsky or the cabinet of dr caligari or w/e. i got stuck on that martin scorsese snoozer where daniel day lewis is in some kind of jane austen situation and after renting it three separate times and giving up every ten minutes or so i haven't gotten back to it, lmao.

this one's on the 1001 movies list, so i'll try to jump in on it. never seen and always meant to. what are the rules for getting in on the roll for choosing a movie? i'll probably watch anything that's on the 1001 list, but it's one of my OCD Forever projects so i can't interrupt it.

it turns out Day of the Dead was not on the list but i only learned that more than halfway through watching it so i'm going to finish it. truly enjoyable so far. going to sound sarcastic but i genuinely enjoy watching some of the actors break character and do a big loving smile at the hammier lines, lmao. there's something about it that reminds me of working in community theater, with a bunch of joyful people working out of their cars excited to show you all the clips of themselves playing extras in some new york or boston-based show. just a bunch of people hamming it up on a doctor who budget and enjoying the hell out it, lol.

yeah i was pretty sure it started today but maybe i'm confused, lol. in terms of the 1001 list, it's up to 1245 at this point. i'm on track to watch them all before i die, even considering how slow i approach it and my limited timeline, so I'm going to stick to it to get the platinum

this movie owns. it honestly makes me feel more generous to all the zombie movies that follow. really good choice IMO.

Leadthumb posted:They used to just make movies man. You can tell everyone making that movie was just trying to give a theater full of people a fun time. yeah. I try to be optimistic and I think there are a lot of creators out there who want to do this now and probably will soon now that the streaming model of letting some algorithm greenlight things is starting to burst.

Fungah! posted:ps biggest surprise for me was that the first baby's weiner i saw in movie club wasnt in a plutonis pick lol, is that right at the end? steve martin is always good but i think the dianne wiest thread is actually my favorite in the movie. her bemused look while keanu talks about dads and her delivery on "Here's one for my wallet!" kills me. i think what makes the movie stick with me is that it has the feel of an 80s comedy but ultimately is more of a family drama, mostly without feeling like it has awkward tone shifts. its biggest flaws are that rick moranis's character is too unhinged to be likeable and the stuff with tom hulce resolves just a little too depressingly. i do like "grandma's wonderful and affecting roller-coaster speech," and not just because steve martin's follow-up is funny.

Interstella 5555, the 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem this was cool, nice pick. It's an hour long anime music video for Daft Punk, what's not to like? everyone making this understood what it is when they set out to do it. It has robust, colorful visuals to pair with the music and that's all that it needed, really. the "plot" is easy to follow and it culminates in a big battle between good and evil ghosts in space. it's only an hour long so that it doesn't overstay its welcome. i get the complaints about recycling the animation in a lot of places but it didn't really bother me. i could make up something about the repetition contributes to its oneiric storytelling or w/e but the truth is that this movie is for getting stoned enough that you melt into the couch, grabbing some snacks and watching with headphones on. i honestly wish more bands would do something like this, something that cuts corners if it has to and just serves as a light companion piece to the music, something that doesn't have to be either traditional "music video" length or feature length. like, yeah, it could be an hour of WinAmp's visualization effects and it would still be cool to listen to Daft Punk, but this was for Discovery, which is fun.

yeah for a movie criticizing the dehumanization of the recording industry it's really optimistic, lol. like it's mostly just about everyone working against the bad guy except the weird robed cult people who just jump into the lava pit with him someone make an anime for Wish You Were Here.
