I saw Juno! It's great!
I am downloading the soundtrack, it's like the best mixtape anyone ever gave me. Well, i already knew about all the Belle and Sebastian stuff. Besides that, I wish I was cool enough to find out about music for myself before it ends up in films that isn't Jay-Z or Karlheinz Stockhausen. |

You know in a sense every film has that as its synopsis, it's just that the main action never cuts to 'Porno'. Someone needs to go through every entry for every movie on wikipedia and add that in. Also it's an infinite universe, so somewhere on some planet Spiderman is riding a hippo, so that needs to be added in, too. |

You know if it's an infinite universe somewhere there is a planet exactly like our own except Natalie Portman is my girlfriend. Also we travel around in a blowjob-powered rocket ship. There's an infinite amount of mes having this experience right now, stretching forward into the future and back into the past. There must be one that's visited my planet, too. An infinite amount that's visited my planet. An infinite amount in my room right now. This infinite universe theory is bullshit, isn't it. |

What's funny about that is, while there are an infinite amount of planets in the universe, and and infinite amount of Earths, you my friend are gay in every single one of them. |

Objectively.

I didn't click on that, but nothing can change the fact that I enjoyed that film quite thoroughly. Better just accept I have different taste in movies to you!
I don't know what I did to make you call me a prick and a dildo, but I'm sorry. I wouldn't want to upset you. You're my favorite male prostitute on this forum! |

I still don't know what to make of your rather cryptic remark that for you, being gay 'pays the bills'. I mean I assumed you meant you were a rent boy because there's not really any other way to interperet it
Are you a rent boy? I'm not going to make fun of you if you are, I'm just interested. |

protip: her lj has her mum's vagoo somewhere in it
so i finally saw 2010 and it was really weird and i'm not sure i'm a better person for having seen it.
i did talk to my peons in Dungeon Siege using David Bowman's monolith-altered voice, though, while the film was in its final moments. (OMG SPOILER CITY HOLY FUCK SRY GUYS)
i'm preparing to watch Pan's Labyrinth again, except 100% less drunk this time! _________________

I watched Charlie Wilson's war while I was doing laundry, so it didn't seem tedious relative to the laundry. Maybe that is the trick - Charlie Wilson's war is a movie that you can watch while doing your laundry so that you miss all the tedious parts. |

I really enjoyed Juno too, Jarvey hams! I don't think I would have liked it quite so much if the main character wasn't as delightfully well-played and sarcastic as she was. Also I'm totally glad she didn't end up bangin' that Mark guy like I thought she would cos GAWD
Also the soundtrack was awesome. I will try to find it this weekend! _________________

Helen Mirren.
Also:
Watching Audiovox, a 1994 collection of six 30-minute cartoons based on operas.
I really liked "Das Rheingold", which is done in a way that looks like the old spiderman/iceman/etc. cartoons from the 80's.
I wish it was a videogame.
Watched a George Carlin video. (Complaints and Grievances.)
It was meh.
He's not as funny as he used to be or I'm not as simple as I used to be and it's probably both.
Jandek on Corwood.
Ghost wailing suicide soundtrack music like the wind whistling through Ed Gein's North Dakota shack except that's not how it is how it went how it was I just like the way it sounds and I wish it was more of a mystery but the guy's only human and he has friends and stuff.
I don't go for hipster fads but I appreciate alienated cult stuff.

Yeah, the film never goes the obvious route. i.e. I expected Juno's stepmother to be a bitch, like stepmothers always are in films. Ditto the foster mom. I expected scenes where Juno gets teased by annoying jocks, and oh no the whole school thinks she's a slut and that kind of thing. I expected the nerd to end up alone and his love unrequited. Basically, it avoids cliche at just about every turn.
Dude I already linked the soundtrack: http://www.maudevintage.com/jamesharvey/files/juno.zip |

the sets look like they belong in tomb raider!
and the one liners are dumb! he pratically looks at the camera when he delivers the HAHA I THOUGHT IT WAS CLOSER one. In the OLD movies he would have just looked around and been like OH SHI- and kept going. AND WE LOVED HIM FOR IT.
In conclusion, Batman looks better. _________________

The amazing thing about Diablo Cody is that she was a blogger, and a hollywood producer just happened to read her blog and said 'how would you like to write a screenplay?' and she said 'sure!' and wrote Juno. Needless to say that kind of thing is never going to happen to these poor (embittered?) sods. |

Honestly, Kyanka already has enough e-notoriety (notoriet-e?) to where he may someday have his own movie. Seriously.
Honestly every "world" has its own soul cancer. It's just the wacky hipsters and waiwai types are more numerous or way more loud about it.
I haven't seen Juno yet. I actually haven't seen any movies in a while, except, uh...
I think I caught Alexander Revisited a few days ago, but stopped watching it very shortly after for reasons I can't recall. Oh yeah, way too much exposition. It'd be nice if there was a "history buffs/ex-majors" cut, where they just snip out all the boring old men talk about what I've listened to amusing old men talk about for years, and get right to all the cool Alexander the Great shit. _________________

Hey I'm sort of wary of posting my opinions of movies on the internet, because they tend to go along with critical consensus and I know that's a big no-no in the world of posturing internet dorks! But I just watched There Will Be Blood,
HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT
I've been waiting for a movie like this to come along all my life! And one of the best endings to a film I've ever seen! So good. I could watch it again right now! |

Huh, I wasn't in love with No Country For Old Men either. I think people like it because it looks like an intelligent film but you can still tell which one's the goody and which one's the baddy. So they get to feel smart for watching it AND understand what's happening (that man is trying to get away from the other man).
Nah, I'm sure it's great! I did enjoy it. I need to watch it again and pay more attention. |

well, to be fair I liked the movie, but it didn't really reach any resolution. I mean...
The way Llewelyn - a clever sort who nimbly evades death at every turn - basically gets gunned down by a drive-by? I was really looking forward to a showdown between him and Cigeur, and then he basically falls off his horse and dies. I really can't stand it when authors do that to decent characters, since hyper-realism in fiction isn't something I exactly seek out. Fuck, I play video games for a reason!
Cigeur's fixation on the CO2 bolt gun was really amusing to me for some reason, but the way the movie ends is just blah. _________________

I don't think I can stand my ground against 'Llewelyn Moss feels like a cinematic experiment on par with early Soviet cinema's explorations of montage'.
Nah I think what you're saying is very interesting and I pretty much agree. But even so, it's still very easy to say 'there's our man, there's the boo-hiss villain.' |

Red Dawn AND Terminator AND Navy Seals.
Woo!
No John Wayne but that's ok, he always pissed me off.

Watched Next last night.
Was ok-ish.
Why don't they just make it like PK Dick 4 reals?
Laetitia Danielle as the terrorist woman was good. She looks a lot like Patti Smith in Terrorist Chic mode.
I wonder if that was intentional. _________________ I felt sheer anarchic joy when I ran over my first pedestrian. |
