Armond's piece on Celine and Julie Go Boating makes this really interesting distinction between the dichotomy between fanboy type bloggers and the intellectual types. He obviously despises the latter more than the former, if only because the fanboys don't care about what Armond is selling. They've likely not heard of Jacques Rivette or his movies.

I would like to read that article. I will now google it.

Another bit I loved was when he slapped her back. When he started to sing was pretty out there and unexpected. I have yet to see a bad Suzuki film. I am going to start watching his later films within the month. The main reason to have Hulu plus. Does anyone have a Mubi subscription? I haven't been in front of a computer in forever it feels like other than to fuck around on Spotify. Been getting emails from my dad asking me if I am still alive. I should message him back. Next on the list of things I rented are The Third Man, Amateur, The Celebration, A Woman Under the Influence, Nightwatching, & 2 or 3 Things I Know About Her.

They're offering a free 2 week subscription. Have to supply a card so that when your trial ends, it can charge you if you decide to not end your subscription.

I'm interested, but the library is significantly less than Netflix/Hulu+ and maybe even Fandor.

aren't film bloggers the worst.

Most are the very bad critics that succumb to hype before they even see a movie. It disgusts me.

[swoon]

until criterion wakes up and outs out OUT1 and they they start running lists about the greatest 10 plus shots in rivette's filmography and never actually watch his films.

i think the problem with white's article is that he creates this weird person who likes soderburgh over godard and to over clouzet? that sounds more like ign than slant.

also to say rivette is the weakest aesthetically of the new wave is just odd.

The FSR thing is smug in its own way. They think that the old school (Sight & Sound) reeks of this air of pretension, including titles that have social importance as if ranking something like Back to the Future and fucking Shawshank Redemption on your personal list somehow makes you more relatable.

I don't know if it was explicitly said, but the idea of making a list from critics you ACTUALLY READ is so fucking idiotic. If anything, it just makes me not want to visit FSR and only enforces the frustration I have with Austin critics.

I just pick and choose stuff that he writes that I like and disregard the rest, especially if I just have no way of relating...like the whole weakest of the new wave thing. I've just not seen enough of that era to really weigh in. Haven't seen anything of Rivette yet and have only seen the first moral tale of Rohmer's.

Here:

Godard:

Oh, I watched this one recently along with the rest of Godard's French New Wave stuff that I hadn't seen. It's the only one I didn't like and I suppose it is the start of his more politically charged stuff which is kind of annoying. I think I am going to make this the month where I watch a bunch of French New Wave stuff since I'm not too familiar with any of the directors associated with it aside from Godard and Truffaut.

Yeah, that was a bit odd but I think he could be talking about the hype that Soderbergh gets for every little film he makes even though it is greatly unneeded and in a year anyways, bloggers will forget about them anyways since how disposable they are.

the fsr stuff is weird because it feels like they are just catching up with the ihm/anti-rockist move that happened to pop music criticism, but mark richardson didn't suddenly stop carrying about beefhart like the new movie bloggers are doing.

Princess Raccoon was disappointing though, I don't expect anything too amazing if he decides to make another film.

I think the odd thing about the Film School Rejects list is that it's in some sort of halfway ground between the Sight and Sound poll and the IMDB Top 250. When the FSR list has five films in it's top ten that are also in the S&S top ten, it doesn't really come off as a radical rejection of the canon. The main distinction seems to be that the FSR list is arguing that Hollywood blockbusters of the 70s and 80s deserve to be on equal footing with established classics. I can appreciate the populist argument there, but I don't think it makes for a particularly exciting list; my own reaction is, "Yeah, Empire is in my personal top ten favorite films of all time, too, but I don't know that I would have put it in a Greatest Films Ever list, which is a different kettle of fish."

Also, someone on that FSR list had The Dark Knight and The Avengers in their top ten. And another person had Hugo at #1. Jesus.

what kills me is their self-martyrdom:

It’s important to note two things. One, there’s a stigma attached to writing online that will exist for quite some time. Print has had centuries to establish itself with a sense of professionalism and gravitas. That sense is false (as anyone who’s spent any time with 96% of print critics can attest to), but it’s still very real. On the other hand, the online world might be made up of the same writer ratio, but it’s still the new kid on the block – having yet to prove itself worthy of the kind of lofty notions that ink-covered hands effortlessly provide.

it's really because every writer at fsr have the most uninteresting and ill-informed points of view about art that i've read. and to champion stuff like back to the future over escape from new york or superfy or near dark makes me thing they are missing the point of populism as well.

Yeah, I'm kinda surprised that their poll voters didn't say, "Gosh, here's a chance to make some really daring, out of left field selections!" Instead most of the lists are pretty bland. What I'd really like to see is, say, the top ten movies of all time according to deranged cult film obsessives. I want to see, say, Robin Bougie's (NSFW) all time top ten. I can envision him populating the list entirely with a combination of Canon film productions and hardcore pornography, and doing so completely without irony.

[TheKaeptain]

These list are almost like the troll list I put together last year just to fuck with Snowy, Swoon, and AU in the best films ever thread.

[EliCash]

Hmm, some odd lists there.

Can't really get my head around how someone would put Melancholia at number 1. Even if they really do love the film.

[Glass Rebel]

Let's start with this steaming pile:

Iron Sky - What a mess. Maybe I'm just too accustomed to Hollywood parodies but this was an absolute waste of money and time. I'm actually offended people thought this was good in any conceivable way. I didn't expect much but the production values are all over the place, the dialogue is poor and rarely funny and... not worth it to spend more time talking about this p.o.s.

So, that's out of the way now.

Thanks to Avengers hype (won't go into detail but I liked it. a lot.) I went back and watched some other comic adaptations so the rest of this post will be comic movies only:

The Incredible Hulk - It was decent and I enjoyed it. I don't know how I feel about the heavily edited opening sequence but the parts in Brazil were very cool. Norton could have been very good for all I know but since I watched it after Avengers I missed Ruffalo who's clearly the better Banner and Hulk so I'm a little biased in this regard. Liv Tyler is such a beautiful woman but she didn't look comfortable in that role. Her outburst after the taxi ride was hilarious though. I didn't like Abomination at all but he makes sense as the first villain for "dumb Hulk" I guess so I didn't mind. Hinting at the Leader was very cool though and the fight at the end was very brutal. All in all it didn't feel like your typical feature film and I think Hulk works better in a mini-series format anyway but it wasn't bad. Wonder how they'll handle the character now that he's become a audience favourite.

Thor - I was very sceptical of this movie because I wasn't familiar with the comic and the first images I saw looked goofy as hell. Didn't really help that it started with that shitty frost giant scene but hey, I was cool with that (pun intended). Seeing the colourful Asgard I feared this would continue but my mind changed instantly when I saw Hemsworth and Hiddleston who are just two very charismatic and convincing actors. While the other actors (except Portman, who was adorable as always) are just kinda there Thor and Loki carry the movie. They pulled the headstrong Thor and manipulative Loki off pretty well. It probably was too short to go in-depth with how Thor would handle being on earth but the little bits like him smashing a mug were pretty fun. I didn't enjoy him invading the S.H.I.E.L.D. base and getting bailed out by Selvig. Generally the story and pacing felt a bit unfocused and boring but when the major characters came together I enjoyed it immensely. It's not a great movie by all means but in the end I had fun watching it and I hope we'll see more of Loki in Thor 2.

Captain America: The First Avenger - This is actually my second favourite solo MCU movie after Iron Man 1. It had so much heart and I appreciated the campy feeling they were going with this. Admittedly, the CG was jarring sometimes, especially Evans' head when he was a wimp or Bucky falling out of the train, and and I could have done without the montage in the latter half but other than that I think they did a great job. It's not a Saving Private Ryan but as the origin story of Captain America it's rather funny, enjoyable and has a lot of heart for the lack of a better term. Evans is just a charismatic and relatable guy how could I not enjoy this movie! I'm really looking forward to Captain America 2 and how they'll develop him further.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine - Oh wow, what a mess. I didn't expect much after The Last Stand but how could they fuck it up this badly is beyond me. Aside from a bit of Gambit and Cyclops fanservice there's absolutely nothing good about this. Deadpool is a disgrace and the Wolverine-Sabretooth rivalry is not believable at all. I prefer to ignore this movie since it also adds some inconsistencies when you watch First Class. Not looking forward to Wolverine 2 at all.

X-Men: First Class - People on this page seem to hate it but I liked it. It's probably my favourite X-Men movie. James McAvoy is such a cool guy and Fassbender as Magneto... holy shit was he menacing in that Argentinian bar scene. It's kinda the same as Thor here where two characters are almost the sole reason why I enjoyed the movie but I'm such a sucker for Cold War settings and January Jones' tits. No, I'm just joking, it's got a pretty solid scrip, a good cast I loved that they actually had different languages in this. I hope this is the direction they go with the series.

[FnordChan]

So, I was thinking about lists and half-remembered an all-time list showing up in Joe Bob Briggs' seminal work of film criticism Joe Bob Goes To The Drive-In. Flipping through my copy revealed two columns, one where Joe Bob outlined a list of not quite 200 nominees and asked folks to vote for their favorites, which would be featured in the First Annual World Drive-In Movie Festival and Custom Car Rally, to be held sometime in 1982. From the follow-up column describing the event, here's was the line-up, as possibly voted on by theoretical readers, presented in what looks like the order flicks were screened:

Beach Party (1963)
Rock Around The Clock (1956)
High School Confidential (1958)
Rock 'N' Roll High School (1979)
Johnny Guitar (1954)
A Hard Day's Night (1964)
Hercules (1959)
A Fistful of Dollars (1966)
Five Guns West (1955)
Rock All Night (1956)
Machine Gun Kelly (1958)
A Bucket of Blood (1959)
The Intruder (1962)
Kiss Me Deadly (1955)
Bad Day at Black Rock (1954)
X - The Man With X-Ray Eyes (1963)
Walking Tall (1973)
Enter The Dragon (1973)
The Trip (1967)
The Blackboard Jungle (1955)
Rebel Without A Cause (1955)
Bloody Mama (1970)
Death Race 2000 (1975)
The Wild Angels (1966)
House of Usher (1960)
The Little Shop of Horrors (1960)
I Married A Monster From Outer Space (1958)
The Blob (1958)
The Brood (1979)
Targets (1968)
Night of the Living Dead (1968)
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)

Now that's a list!

I can't wait until school and the NBA playoffs are over so I can channel all that time into movie watching. Got lots of catching up to do. But considering I watched like 70 films last summer, I'm not worried.

The Trip is so damn awesome.

[Auron_Kale]

Watched Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol last night.

I'd rank it at the top of MI films, mostly due to the direction of Brad Bird and the cool toys they featured. Story was easy to follow but probably it was when they were in Dubai that I was in awe of how that part of the movie was shot (even the featurette on the filming of it was something to behold).

Overall, was just a fun popcorn flick for me.

[Snowman Prophet of Doom]

My Best Fiend rocks. In a few more films, I might be prepared to declare Herzog my favorite director, perhaps even above Kubrick.

Perhaps.

I just watched Green Lantern(2011), I had a morbid curiosity to see if it was as awful as everyone said. And it is. :lol How does something like this get made? What a horrible story, the problems with this really lie at the script.

While Martin Scorsese may be looking toward the future of film (as demonstrated by the 3-D effects of his recent Hugo), the master director also has a legendary appreciation for the rich history of cinema. Nowhere is his love more evident, though, than in the work of his film preservation organization, which is celebrating a mini-festival of restored classics with a series of contemporary posters.

speaking about malick, terrencemalick.org linked to an article related to voyage of time a couple of days ago:

Nominated for makeup: "This is a huge morning. I'm so proud of the work and so honored. Everyone's just been really enamored with the makeup. I'm in Austin, Texas, doing tests for a new Terrence Malick film, 'The Voyage of Time,' and he got nominated too, which is great. "One aspect of my work -- which sometimes works against me, and I have to get the word out -- is how little prosthetics she has on. It's harder to do makeup like we did on 'Albert Nobbs' than to try and cover the actor's whole face. To put a nose on someone's face and blend it into their skin and make it look natural is harder than wearing a whole mask. I'm extremely proud of the subtleties."

christmas time in italy. smooth tunes (http://youtu.be/i6HG854rf5Y) accompany chill motorcycle rides with your male companion. possibly the most cruel purse snatching scene in cinematic history? MOTORCYCLE WHEELIES. DIRT BIKES THROUGH CROWDED STREETS. MOTORCYCLE IN A BODEGA! ANIMAL CRUELTY! CAR CRASHES! FUCK YOU, COMMON THIEVES!

and all this in JUST the first 5 minutes?!



welcome to the world of the smooth talking, good looking, 'fuck the rules' cops that no criminal would ever want to meet on the streets.



(side note: marc porel's tie/scarves in this flick are fucking off the charts awesome)

i honestly dont know what else you'd want out of a film. car crashes, gun fights, that gorgeous red hue of 70s italian gore, lots of ass kicking and sexy machismo? the goofy sitcom-esque sequences that play out with Fred and Tony between each of their crime fighting sequences are worth it alone. also some solid directing from Ruggero Deodato (4 years prior to Cannibal Holocaust), my favorite moments of which probably come early on in the hostage scene. the upbeat loungey jazz soundtrack works as a perfect guide to string us along as these two hard cops lay and slay their way through the most tainted bits of rome.

it does kinda start to drag in the 3rd act (shit, are there even acts in this? maybe i should just say the final 3rd), but the final scene and the gun training scene more than make up for it

oh and shit gets blown up too

I met Ruggero Deodato last weekend. He mentioned this film at one point during a panel.

Will most assuredly watch now.
