AICN Exclusive: Jeunet's MICMACS domestic 1-sheet!!!
Hey folks, Harry here with the gorgeous one sheet for Jean-Pierre Jeunet's utterly delightful work of whimsy, MICMACS. I've seen this film 3 times now and my enthusiasm for the flick grows with each viewing. I would hesitate to compare Dany Boon directly with Chaplin or Keaton, but I would compare Chaplin & Keaton with Jean Pierre Jeunet. I know Jeunet isn't in front of the lens like those two - but he has a similar mind for cinematic invention to those two. Dany Boon is tremendous as the revenge minded oddball with a bit of lead in his noggin. But each of the team he joins is equally marvelous. If you love film, you should love this movie. At least I hope you do. Jeunet's latest wonder hits our shores in Limited release towards the end of May. We'll keep ya in the know on this one. Now - here's the poster which you can embiggen...

...a movie actually worth looking forward to!
-
i have to be honest, i still haven't seen ALL of amelie or delicatessen. watched the first half of amelie with a girl at college, but i bailed halfway through when she fell asleep and it became apparent that i wouldn't be getting sex.
-
I saw it at SXSW and really loved it. Kind of like a zany Ocean's Eleven.
-
At least I hope so. It's been A Very Long Gap since A Very Long Engagement. Why the six year gap?
-
...that has aint or it or cool or news on the poster...
-
...jmapelle votre stepdaddy... dix-neuf!... <p>PS: dix-neuf sounds like these nuts...<p>AUTHORS NOTE: 19 is yourstepdaddy favorite number...
-
Saw this in December (yay) and can't wait to see it again in the theater. Just a giant load of fun and happy poured onto the screen.
-
Very much looking forward to getting my mucky eyeballs locked on to this one.
-
the preferred derogatory term is "Frogs" get with it.
-
One of those "select few sheets" that actually makes me want to see the flick. Well done!

Strange title. Is this about the northeastern nation
by ConstructionShirker
Native American
-
Ah thanks for brief logline. Bah.
-
Looking forward to this one, although I'm getting kind of tired of Jeunet's... How do I put this... Sensibilities maybe? <p> Time for the guy to evolve a bit more, he's been feeding us the same dark, but very sugar coated pill for 20 years now.
-
That's why it got posted. Still, I wish there was some sort of logline or plot summary for the rest of us ignorant talkbackers to understand what this movie will be about.
-
Agreed. Jeunet was progressive and exciting but he never matured beyond what he first offered. Not all film makers have to but when you're showing off a sense of style people tend to get tired of the show after a while.
-
and one of my favorite films, along with ALIEN and Seven Samurai is Delicatessen.
-
Thought it sounded familiar, but I had to reread my review to be sure: http://www.aintitcool.com/node/42383
-
What Jeunet needs to do is stretch. Like if he... say... took over some respected sci-fi series and put his own quirky French spin on it. I think that would be tits.
-
I hate when they quote AICN- you never know it it's a random Harry review, a trustworthy reviewer like Massa or Capone, or a random reader-submitted review. At least Copernicus is a smart guy I can put some stock in. <p> It's the same as when a TV spot quotes the reviewer from Fox TV Miami or something. They might be totally trustworthy, but it seems shady.
-
Saw this a few weeks back at my local indie cinema, just great, whimsical, true, but with a biting satirical edge... well worth checking out.
-
Despite the story of the mad man on the oll rig who is a dream stealer. couldnt understand a single thing that went on in that movie.
-
such a cool damn movie
-
this is the first movie this guy has directed since 2004, that's a while
-
alongside Kick Ass, The Way Back, Inception, Tree of Life and Never Let Me Go. That's all that matters this year for me.
-
That movie was my first brush with Ron Perlman and I've been a fan of him and Jeunet ever since. That movie is like a dream illustrated
-
I really hate to say that because I'm a big Jeunet fan, but it's fuckin' true. I think he was just trying to be too normal. Here's hoping for a return to nuttiness with Micmacs.
-
Still pretty fucking underhanded to quote a talkbacker without giving credit.</P><P>Actually.....THAT'S FUCKIN' BULLSHIT MAN!
-
If you consider the series dead in the water after part 3, as most do, I thought Alien Res. wasn't a bad tombstone. It was basically a remake of the first - get together a crew with personality to spare, set them loose in a haunted house and see what happens. Action was decent. Had a few nice references to the other movies. Looked great. Had a bit too much Winona and freaky half-Aliens, but really, why is it hated so?
-
Am I lost?
-
but didn't know if it was an actual BAMF or not. *looks around*
-
Let's take this place over anyway.
-
...let the Pedalbackery flow!
-
If you ever want to clear a room, just start giving people to the Clarence Bodikker/hooker treatment.

I'm a sucker for Desmond-centric episodes. Aside from Hurley and Sawyer, he's the best character on that show.
-
THE TIGERS ARE PLAYING IN TOWN TONIGHT! <P> I never miss a game
-
watched Bad Lieutenant (2)...nic was fucking weirdly over the top again. good to see he has it.
-
the valentines day ep..
-
I'm getting chills thinking about it right now.
-
I hear good things, but I'm not sure if I should start trying to get into something in the middle of its season.
-
whenever we BAMF?
-
I work for Dick Jones! DICK JONES!!
-
...Tardis sound...<P> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ_bKX0Wjv4
-
I tend to imagine scene change music from the old Batman TV show. Duh-duh-duh-deh-dee-duh-duh! Batman!
-
They are throwing repeats around on tv. And there really isn't any continuity so picking up shouldn't be a prob.
-
but when I'm done, maybe you can...fit me in.
-
That was one of Arrested Development's biggest problems when trying to draw in new viewers. So many running jokes that made little sense without a little background.
-
Just leaving it for the bitch. I wish I knew what Kurtwood Smith was up to now. I wanna say I saw him do a bit role not too long ago, but I can't remember what movie.
-
I love how bob loblaw played by Scott baio replaced Henry winkler as the familys lawyer..which is basically what he did on happy days
-
That sucks. If there was ever a movie that I would like to think has no fans whatsoever, it's A:R. Terrible movie. Some of the same people are blasting A Very Long Engagement, which for my money, is one of Jeunet's best.
-
...I just wish it wasn't an ALIEN sequel.
-
With his white suit..how very panama jack company man that was!
-
On the phone with Portia de Rossi, who thinks he wants to have phone sex with her. <p> BL: I do have to tell you that I'll be needing to get off in five minutes. <p> PdR: Hmmm. Well, let me see if I can hit that mark for you. <p> Cut back to Bob Loblaw on the speakerphone with his secretary furiously transcribing the conversation.
-
I haven't seen A VERY LONG ENGAGEMENT, but I really liked CITY OF LOST CHILDREN. AMELIE, however, underwhelmed me.
-
...before I let myself get into it, for that very reason. Besides, I've already got The Office, Parks and Recreation, 30 Rock, and Parenthood to keep up on. That's enough.
-
I can hear Scary rustling right now.
-
I like that crazy, tiny moustache he had.
-
They should even let him play the guitar and sing.
-
One xenomorph on human scene too many.
-
I swear, the man has a best supporting actor Oscar in him.
-
I expected much more from it based on the amount of praise that it was getting upon its release. Then I saw it and thought it had some cool visuals, but I just didn't give two shits about the main character.
-
...is that it's an ALIENS movie.<P> Well, that, and someone needs to revoke Jeunet's license to own and operate midgets.
-
the General pours a glass of whiskey for Michael Wincott's character and he uses a whiskey cube that melts into a single shot after putting it under a tiny, blue laser. I just kept thinking, "What a useless piece of technology?" It was a movie filled with shit like that where utterly pointless things were added into the movie to make it either seem more horrific or more SF than it actually was. A stupid, stupid movie.
-
Whimsical and twee shouldn't exceed 105 minutes.
-
...is that it's in the Alien series. Otherwise, I would have turned it off somewhere around the backwards basketball shot.
-
... reasonable.

Alien 4 was my earliest memory of pure disappointment
by lotharius3rd1118
Even when I lost my virginity and lasted like 45 seconds. Alien 4 was more anticlimactic than that. I also totally blame it for giving the Alien series a tongue-in-cheek attitude that allowed it to be so easily exploited for the AvP shitstorm.
-
Of course, I feel that way about a lot of movies, not just ones involving whimsical aspects. Like, say, if you're making a movie involving giant robots or if your movie is based off of a Disney theme park ride.
-
I'm lucky if I lasted that long.
-
I was wanting to go just a little bit longer. Must have been exceptionally pathetic for my girlfriend at the time.
-
fantastic/whimsical movies, ran 101 mins. 'Nuff said, as the kids would say.
-
to being apprehensive about The Hobbit being spread over two movies.
-
the RED RIDING TRILOGY its 303 minutes.
-
fiancee's parents for the first time. <p>I'm looking for advice. How much should I drink during this gathering?
-
For God's sake it was the shortest of the books and now it's being turned into the longest of the movies. I heard that del Toro was planning to spend an entire hour just on the Battle of the Five Armies. That's unbelievably excessive, considering that part of the book was...what?...ten pages max. I don't like the last Harry Potter movie getting spread out, either. Especially since that book had no natural breaking point.
-
Saw some trailers for it on IFC and it looked pretty cool.
-
If not, keep it two a couple of glasses of wine or beer and nothing heavier. If so, get them to start drinking and copy their every order. Unless, of course, your parents don't drink. Then you should once again take it back a notch. <p> Biggest thing to remember though is that they are most likely to think of each other in a negative light or simply not talk and cause a negative air about the gathering. Or they'll get along famously and you will just have to attempt to not look annoyed.
-
...ALIEN 3 had already shit the bed.<P> Being disappointed with ALIEN 4 is like being disappointed with ATTACK OF THE CLONES...or INDY 5.
-
...just fine, but you don't want to get too chatty...loose lips sink ships.
-
snobs, either. My mom doesn't drink, but my stepfather does ... too much. <p>I just want to be numb through the whole thing. I've actually spent more time with my fiancee's parents over the past three years than with mine.
-
You all BAMF'ed and I THWAP'ed. It's been that kind of a day.
-
So that you can drink more than anyone else and without anyone noticing. Flasks are like a golfer's handicap- it brings us all to the same level.
-
Jebus, Sixies! This alleyway has been black-boxed and FETTed.<P>You better not be setting us up for trouble.
-
it was interesting..they gel pretty well but that anticipation of the meeting was harsh..plus my newborn son (not my wifes) was there as a distraction..<P>no jacket required. but drinks were needless to say.
-
...particular interest in hanging out. They've met, of course, but only a couple/three/four times.<P> I'm a strong proponent of a two state solution if at all possible.
-
itll be alright..FETT was just a coinkydink!<P>i picked it for its brevity.
-
At my fiancee's parents' house. Lots of food and snacks, and aunts and uncles from both sides will be there, too. They all probably won't meet again until the wedding next year. I just want it over with.
-
Luckily, I think everyone else is on board with that.
-
Than she does with my sister-in-law!<p> My girl's parents have yet to meet my mom, but that's going to happen in the next month or so. I feel no nerves about that whatsoever.
-
April 7, 2010, 1:14 p.m. CST
I break up with any woman the minute she broaches the subject
by Subtitles_Off
of meeting my parents. Combining the two sets has never even occurred to me.
-
...no worries then.<P> If your family is anything like mine I'm sure you have at least one insane aunt to act as a decoy/diversion/rodeo clown.
-
Seemed like a nice noob.
-
I always end up drinking too much when I'm uncomfortable.
-
to still like it. And I have since seen the Special Edition which is a pretty teriffic movie. Alien 4 was just shit from beginning to end, IMHO. To this day, I have a hard time accepting people's excitement over Joss Whedon 'cause his grubby little fingers were on A:R.
-
We just gotta get this talkback's numbers up so he can track us down.

i love how we talk about alien 4 and Alien³ on a weekly basis
by Six Demon Bag
and it never gets boring.
-
We haven't talked about Batman forever.
-
GAWD forbid we start talking about Val Kilmer.
-
Jack Johnson'd let you borrow his sweater.
-
Let the talkative aunt dominate the proceedings. And, most importantly Col., know that it will never be as bad as you might be imagining it to be. <p> At least it's not my parents meeting new people. My dad would probably make a weird joke and then strip down into his underwear and start watching football. My mom would try to make everyone at the gathering like her and in the process would make some incredibly inappropriate conversation.
-
..."future fiancee" to just fiancee...did you buy a ring and stuff, or did booking the dj make it official?<P> I'm just going to start calling her Mrs. Heart...if that's OK with you.
-
first hit HBO or Showtime or whatever. I actually kinda liked it. I haven't seen it since then, though, so who knows what I'd think of it now ...
-
fucking genius!
-
and pretend like it's the weekend. Ah. Can't you see that it's just rainin'? There ain't no need to go outside.
-
If you don't like Bale as Batman, you just don't like Batman.
-
April 7, 2010, 1:28 p.m. CST
I kept calling her future Mrs. Fatheart. I don't recall
by ColonelFatheart
using "future fiancee." Unless I did. In that case, I would be wrong. We've been engaged since December.
-
make sure it's the 2 1/2 hour cut. It has actually held up quite well.
-
...to learn that in June I'll have been married 13 years. At 37 that's more than a third of my fucking life.<P> Is that the Pedalback record?...I should write a book or something.
-
I liked his kind of oblivious style when he was dealking with others as Bruce Wayne. Actually, I just like Batman Forever. It's campy and showed the symptoms of the ills that would plague Batman and Robin, but Kilmer was fun and the lighter tone was a nice change of pace. "I'm sorry, but manipulating brain waves. Mind control. It just raises too many questions."
-
...that' it.<P> My disabled learning ability acting up again.

...announcement of Ridley Scott's ALIEN prequel project, I put forward the idea that if by some miracle the movie is good, then I can consider THE PREQUEL, ALIEN, and ALIENS a tidy trilogy (since I deny the existence of 3 and 4 anyway)...and hardcore purists can deny the existence of ALIENS and just watch the two Scott directed movies...happiness and joy for everyone.<P> Anyway, some guy was really upset with me about it, we went round and round...HOW CAN YOU DENY THE EXISTENCE OF MOVIE! EVERYTHING IS CANON OR NOTHING IS CANON!!! YOU DON'T GET TO PICK AND CHOOSE!!!!<P> It was odd, even for this place. <P> In my head, STAR WARS is a trilogy, and THE MATRIX is just one movie. I mean, when you say JAWS, you mean JAWS, not JAWS 4...right?
-
No MATRIX beyond the first. JAWS beyond the first.
-
In broad terms.
-
That's a lot of "Yes Dear" 's
-
...I pick and choose as I see fit.<P> In the words of the great sage Bob Ross...it's my little world.
-
...was directed at Colonel's question about "canon", but I'm going to pretend I meant it for ST too...<P> Thanks ST!
-
And started talking about Kilmer anyway. It's a bad habit of mine. If someone says God forbid something happens, I do everything in my power to make that thing happen. It's just too much of a temptation. Like a big red button with a sign that says DO NOT PUSH. Well, what else would I do?
-
But, then again, I was completely mistaken about where the story was heading. I would have been able to look past all that shitty Zion stuff if they'd made the movie I'd thought I was watching. It wasn't until Revolutions came out that I realized how wrong I had everything and just how bad this was all about to get. I'll still take Reloaded, and just pretend that it ended how I wanted it too.
-
whenever someone mentions Jaws. Or if someone mentions Michael Caine. Or Jamaica. It's just hard to get past a movie where a shark jumps out of the water AND ROARS! One of the stupidest movies ever made.
-
..er something the XI showed Orcus
-
You must be talking about Werewolves on the Moon, the new residency of all the CoCers.
-
I think he should be in a gangster movie. He could make one hell of a scary Irish gangster IMO...or union boss.
-
Anyone else watch Modern Family every week? Frikkin' hilarious show.
-
Just because the sight of Al Bundy with that hot of wife makes my blood boil in petty jealousy.
-
I feel like talking about stupid comic book shit today.
-
I still haven't had a chance to check it out, opting to wait until it's on DVD, in case it's the type of show that has a lot of running gags that would hinder my ability at catching up.
-
a priest who's caught between his faith and his loyalty to the church, as he runs a parish that's been a dumping ground for pederasts.
-
on that short-lived Dragnet series from a few years back.
-
That short lived series where he is a cop in NY working with the FBI.
-
Honestly, I've forgotten about that movie. Might be time for a re-watch. <p> I've never heard of Big Apple. Was it any good? Huh, people like seeing Dutch as a cop.
-
bit part but he fit in perfectly.
-
Its got a good cast- Denzel, a pretty damn hot Angelina Jolie, Ed O'Neill, Luis GUZMAN, Queen Latifah... <p> I haven't watched it start to finish but once, but it was on a few weeks ago and I caught a bit of it around the middle as I did some work, the scene where they figure out where one of the victims is in the sewers and they try to rescue her before its too late. But alas, the trap is sprung and the woman has her face melted off by steam.
-
It was on CBS and it tried to be a serious cop show, kind of like the Wire before the Wire. Unfortunately it was on CBS, so it was very watered down. Not nearly as gritty as it should have been.
-
Jon Polito needs to work more. I fucking love him. And I love Guzman too.
-
cool.<P>and K9!!!
-
awesome..
-
"Are you givin' me the high hat?"
-
I personally just found it so dumb. I couldn't suspend disbelief for a second that Angelina was a cop, or buy the motive and Modus Operandi of the killer. It was just so forced IMO. <P> Which kind of sucks, because in many ways it was an interesting set up for a new take on Nero Wolfe.
-
...first came out, but I'd have given it about 2.5 out of 5. <P> Of course, I was pretty burned out on the whole post SE7EN serial killer craze at the time.
-
But my memory of those movies is a little vague. The main thing I remember from Spartan is when that Antwonne Fisher kid bought the farm in an incredibly surprising way and Val Kilmer's thing about why you shouldn't smoke in the desert.

I don't even remember the MO for the killer in Bone Collector
by D.Vader
I remember the actor who played the killer but not the whys and wherefores. <p> And wasn't Angelina not really a cop but a pathologist detective or something?
-
Who can forget where the shark leaps out of the water, jumps OVER A BOAT, snatches a guy out of the crow's nest, and that guy still survives. Or when Mrs. Brody rams the shark with the boat and the SHARK EXPLODES FOR NO REASON!!! God that movie is astounding.
-
Get it together Continentalop. I obviously meant movie. <P> But that would be an interesting idea. Tough competition for Student Movers.
-
I think I've got whatever Conti's got.
-
Remember she finds the body and has the foresight to take photos of a footprint next to a pen for perspective. Denzil ask that she work with him. <P> And the killer was basing all of his murders on an old book about crime in NY, kind of like a "Gangs of New York" with all these all sketchings, but about murders.
-
...the reaction to things.<P> Sure, we love OLIVER TWIST now, but maybe at the time I would have needed another fucking orphan story like I needed a fart in my figgy pudding.
-
April 7, 2010, 3:08 p.m. CST
Maybe I've actually never seen the beginning of Bone Collector
by D.Vader
I guess I've only picked it up after the beginning and watched until the end, bc I don't quite remember her finding the first body being a uniformed beat cop at first. I do remember the MO for the killer now, I guess I meant the motive. Confused MO with motive for a second there. I actually like that crazy idea that he was basing the deaths on old NY crime. Made me think of someone recreating Jack the Ripper or something.
-
i couldve sworn that when i saw that film..mario van peebles died in the film...<P>then when i saw it on HBO he lived....

She was a cop who was acting as a forensic detective
by lotharius3rd1118
to be the eyes and ears of Denzel. I don't remember much about the killer except some scene where he had a victim in a room with a steam pipe and the guy roasted to death. <p> You're right, Flick. there was a time in the mid to late 90's where serial killer films were all the rage. I personally still love "Copycat." <p> Oh, man, ContinentalOp, "M" was a helluva a show. I remember hearing a lot about it for a long time and just not checking it out. Then I caught it late one night on AMC a few years back. Damn. That opening with the little girl and the balloon was a hellacious shocker.
-
I saw that movie in the theater. I was a little fella, in love with all things JAWS. I feel bad for my uncle, who took me to see it.
-
It is one of the most obviously stupid endings in history. You see MvP getting fucking swallowed underwater and in the last shot of the movie he pops up without a scratch.
-
yeah there was an alternate..the OG..he dies and exploded...<P>then they changed it cutting and pasting the shark death from the first film! and letting him live, mario that is.
-
Was something like he was a disgruntled ex-coroner or something who Denzil once testified and said he gave bad evidence. Ruined his career. <P> Lothar, yeah I love M. The balloon just stuck up in that wire or whatever it is is great visual, and the sound of him whistling is just so creepy. I also love how half-way through the movie you are made to sympathize with Lorre. Lang was Hitchcock before there was a Hitchcock.
-
...Alien 3 was better than Aliens.
-
Just kidding. I disagree, but if you like 3 better I am cool with that. I just like doing provocative subject lines.
-
Xi joined Orcus on Facebook and pointed the site Out to Orcus. Heck there are several of us on Facebook, do you have an account there?
-
Why don't I remember that? I remember Van Peebles being killed, I remember Michael Caine surviving, I remember Ms. Brody stabbing the shark with the front of the ship (which was also a part of the old Nintendo JAWS video game), but I definitely DO NOT remember the shark exploding!
-
Under Conti Nenta Lop. I'm friends with Xi. <P> Nenta was my granddad's name.
-
I can almost agree with 'moose. Alien 3 certainly gives Cameron's movie a run for its money. The only thing that holds back A3 for me is some unconvincing effects work and, in the production edit, a first hour that's a little slow in spots. Otherwise, it's a great movie. And Charles S. Dutton is one bad motherfucker.
-
I'd love to see the gnashing of the teeth and rending of garments that would commence after you say that on an ALIEN(S)-related thread. That would make for a great day in talkback history.
-
...which removes the Queen bursting out of Ripley as she falls, as well as adds much needed scenes that bring a lovely, mad quality to the overall film.
-
Can't tell who else I'm friends with. Mavra and someone else whose AICN name I can't decipher yet.
-
First the shark pops up out of the water and begins roaring like a lion...while treading water and staying very still. Then Mrs. Brody has a flashback to Chief Brody killing the shark in the first movie. That's right. She has a flashback to an event that she was not a part of. She steers the boat and just as Brody says, "Smile you son of a BITCH!" the shark is impaled by the prow. And then, for no reason, it explodes. Great ending.
-
was so much more fleshed out. And that subplot about capture the beast and it getting free again was a pretty incredible subplot. You just sit there going, "Well, what the fuck's gonna happen now?" I also miss in the theatrical cut just how much of the doctor's character was cut. His death in the assembly cut is now shocking and a little heartbreaking. He was almost as much the main character as Ripley and then he buys it. Great movie.
-
It was called The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay.
-
What would Scooby do?

There was one for the XBox that had terrible graphics
by lotharius3rd1118
but was still fun for about five minutes. I don't remember the goal. I just swam around eating people. Man, them body surfers were wily little bastards. No wonder there aren't more shark attacks every year. We humans are a difficult prey.
-
Back then, anyway... when we would rent it from the local Kroger's grocery store. <p> Hey you know there was a JAWS game released a few yrs ago for the next-gen systems, right? I just remember seeing footage on G4's X-Play. You controlled JAWS as he went on a rampage through the oceans, with special moves like the CHARGING JAWS where you sprinted forward and ate everything in your path. <p> I saw him attacking/eating divers and orcas. And the best part was, you could make JAWS leap out of the water and thrash around on boats or even on LAND! It looked fucking crazy, seeing that super-large shark thrashing around eating pple as they ran away. SNL's Land Shark for real.
-
...that movie came out around the same time as LETHAL WEAPON 3...between the two of them I grew up hard that year...the world is a hard and uncaring place.<P> You can't go home again.<P> Chaos fucking reins.
-
It got pretty creepy as you crawled through tunnels, constantly vigilant and waiting for aliens to jump in after you.
-
...see?
-
Let's...um...get dicking?
-
and ECCO THE DOLPHIN
-
The way I remembered it, she had picture of her husband, but they were pictures of him on the Orca as it sank from the first movie, as if someone took a strip of film from JAWS and blew up an image to be framed photo. <p> That's how I remember it, but I guess what I'm really remembering was a black and white flashback sequence. <p> But I also seem to remember her having a flashback to Brody being killed by a shark? That was the implication? I guess that was my assumption as a kid.

In Jaws 3, the shark goes to Sea World. The movie was supposed to be in 3-D and the result is an obviously plastic toy shark with fake blur lines around it coming slowly at the screen every time something happens. And there's a couple of dolphins that everyone thinks the shark killed, but he didn't. The dolphins are alive, they even cause a distraction for the shark when it's chasing Dennis Quaid. And there's an Australian guy, and he's got grenades. The shark eats him, but doesn't swallow. In the end, Lou Gossett Jr. pulls the pin on a grenade that the recently chomped but not swallowed Aussie is holding. KABLOOIE! Great movie.

Its got a hot young Lea Thompson in it. And the fake shark- whose tail never moves- comes gliding slowly toward the camera, then BOOM! Shattered glass goes flying straight into my eyes!

...Was the dead Aussie just sorta floating around in the shark's mouth, holding a grenade. <P> Even as a kid, I thought "Why doesn't the shark swallow that dude?" <P> You'd think a relentless eating machine would finish eating one guy before going after another.

I like Yacks suggestions. Finally watched Point Blank Yack
by MacReady452
I liked the end and Lee Marvin is always good. Boormans hippy dippy style in the film was kind of disctracting. The jazz club stuff and the colored purfume or oils swirling in the tub. The intercutting of past and present. Why are Marvin and Dean Wormer rolling around on the floor at what looks like an all mens club?<p>Seeing how much Payback ripped it off was interesting and like I said I liked the ending a lot. 3/5
-
not Hitler...<p>The Hon. Adolph Menora...perfect...
-
I'm glad it hit the 3/5 for you. That's all one can ask for out of a film. It's funny, I completely ignored the psychedelic stuff (it didn't work in my opinion) but Marvin carries the movie so well, you can see how the story takes on a completely different character from PAYBACK's interpretation. If you like the character, check out the books by Richard Stark (aka Donald Westlake). There's a bunch of 'em, and they're pretty entertaining pulp crime novels (and very fast reads).

He's angry that he's got THE Naziest first name ever.

Because his father, a member of the Jewish resistance, was a compulsive gambler. While camped out in the woods, he was playing cards with some other Jews when he ran out of rations, shoes and other collateral. So it came time to offer the one thing he had left, the name of his unborn son. He layed down a King-high straight flush and got beat by a an ace-high straight flush.

what I said about Scary? She went away for a bit a while ago, I think someone pissed her off but I was never sure what or why. She came back eventually, and we were all happy to see her. Is that what you meant? <p> She hates Alien3 with a passion though and doesn't find the crucifixion scene for example poetic but outrageously on the nose (on that note the extended doesn't have the chestburster er, bursting out from what I recall). She hates Madmen too. But hey, different strokes while maintaining respect is one of the things I like about the OB. <p> So I was joking we may have scared her off again...

By Terry Bisson <p>"They're made out of meat." <p>"Meat?" <p>"Meat. They're made out of meat." <p>"Meat?" <p>"There's no doubt about it. We picked up several from different parts of the planet, took them aboard our recon vessels, and probed them all the way through. They're completely meat." <p>"That's impossible. What about the radio signals? The messages to the stars?" <p>"They use the radio waves to talk, but the signals don't come from them. The signals come from machines." <p>"So who made the machines? That's who we want to contact." <p>"They made the machines. That's what I'm trying to tell you. Meat made the machines." <p>"That's ridiculous. How can meat make a machine? You're asking me to believe in sentient meat." <p>"I'm not asking you, I'm telling you. These creatures are the only sentient race in that sector and they're made out of meat." <p>"Maybe they're like the orfolei. You know, a carbon-based intelligence that goes through a meat stage." <p>"Nope. They're born meat and they die meat. We studied them for several of their life spans, which didn't take long. Do you have any idea what's the life span of meat?" <p>"Spare me. Okay, maybe they're only part meat. You know, like the weddilei. A meat head with an electron plasma brain inside." <p>"Nope. We thought of that, since they do have meat heads, like the weddilei. But I told you, we probed them. They're meat all the way through." <p>"No brain?" <p>"Oh, there's a brain all right. It's just that the brain is made out of meat! That's what I've been trying to tell you." <p>"So ... what does the thinking?" <p>"You're not understanding, are you? You're refusing to deal with what I'm telling you. The brain does the thinking. The meat." <p>"Thinking meat! You're asking me to believe in thinking meat!" <p>"Yes, thinking meat! Conscious meat! Loving meat. Dreaming meat. The meat is the whole deal! Are you beginning to get the picture or do I have to start all over?" <p>"Omigod. You're serious then. They're made out of meat." <p>"Thank you. Finally. Yes. They are indeed made out of meat. And they've been trying to get in touch with us for almost a hundred of their years." <p>"Omigod. So what does this meat have in mind?" <p>"First it wants to talk to us. Then I imagine it wants to explore the Universe, contact other sentiences, swap ideas and information. The usual." <p>"We're supposed to talk to meat." <p>"That's the idea. That's the message they're sending out by radio. 'Hello. Anyone out there. Anybody home.' That sort of thing." <p>"They actually do talk, then. They use words, ideas, concepts?" <p>"Oh, yes. Except they do it with meat." <p>"I thought you just told me they used radio." <p>"They do, but what do you think is on the radio? Meat sounds. You know how when you slap or flap meat, it makes a noise? They talk by flapping their meat at each other. They can even sing by squirting air through their meat." <p>"Omigod. Singing meat. This is altogether too much. So what do you advise?" <p>"Officially or unofficially?" <p>"Both." <p>"Officially, we are required to contact, welcome and log in any and all sentient races or multibeings in this quadrant of the Universe, without prejudice, fear or favor. Unofficially, I advise that we erase the records and forget the whole thing." <p>"I was hoping you would say that." <p>"It seems harsh, but there is a limit. Do we really want to make contact with meat?" <p>"I agree one hundred percent. What's there to say? 'Hello, meat. How's it going?' But will this work? How many planets are we dealing with here?" <p>"Just one. They can travel to other planets in special meat containers, but they can't live on them. And being meat, they can only travel through C space. Which limits them to the speed of light and makes the possibility of their ever making contact pretty slim. Infinitesimal, in fact." <p>"So we just pretend there's no one home in the Universe." <p>"That's it." <p>"Cruel. But you said it yourself, who wants to meet meat? And the ones who have been aboard our vessels, the ones you probed? You're sure they won't remember?" <p>"They'll be considered crackpots if they do. We went into their heads and smoothed out their meat so that we're just a dream to them." <p>"A dream to meat! How strangely appropriate, that we should be meat's dream." <p>"And we marked the entire sector unoccupied." <p>."Good. Agreed, officially and unofficially. Case closed. Any others? Anyone interesting on that side of the galaxy?" <p>"Yes, a rather shy but sweet hydrogen core cluster intelligence in a class nine star in G445 zone. Was in contact two galactic rotations ago, wants to be friendly again." <p>"They always come around." <p>"And why not? Imagine how unbearably, how unutterably cold the Universe would be if one were all alone ..."

Which is what it was supposed to be and which is why I liked it. It totally captured the William Castle thrill ride experience (which is why I thought Rush being an amusement park designer was so apt). <P> THE HAUNTING remake, however, was beyond stupid.

☆☆RIGHT-BRAIN CINEMA☆☆™<P>Ingmar Bergman's "Silence of God" tril
by Subtitles_Off
All are Swedish. Subtitled. Black-n-white. <P> THROUGH A GLASS DARKLY<P> Såsom i en Spegel <P> 1961. <P>My favorite of the three films - by far the most easily accessible - is the story of a small family dealing with the schizophrenia of the sole female, who has visions of God as a spider. Notable, as all of these films are, for the cinematography of Sven Nykvist, which presents provocative close-ups of the actors lit from precise, unnatural angles. The characters are free and emotional when they are presented in nature, but in settings within structures they are bound by walls of horizontal planes or sharp diagonals and restricted in their interactions. This is the only one of the three films that directly suggests love as an antidote for human despair. <P> ★★★★☆ <Br><Br><Br><Br> WINTER LIGHT<P> Nattvardsgästerna <P> 1962. <P> If Bergman has been parodied with cartoonish charicatures of tightly framed talking heads speaking imponderable philosophies, this is the film which, to me, most resembles the critique. In terms of the trilogy, this is the most direct, speaking specifically to the silence of God in regard to the concerns of men. It tells and tells and tells and tells the story of a priest who is incapable of comforting his small community of parishoners, and then it tells some more. Whatever profundity there is, you'll have to apply it yourself. Maybe that's the point. I'm too bored to care. <P> ★★☆☆☆ ½ <Br><Br><Br><Br> THE SILENCE <P> Tystnaden <P> 1963. <P> The most symbolically rich of the trilogy, this film tells the story of two sisters - let's call the horny one Body and the fatally ill one Mind - stuck in a hotel in an unspecified, unspecifiable, foreign country on the brink of war, accompanied by the young, inquisitive boy who navigates their dislike for one another. God, I guess, is conspicuous in His absense. Oh, there are also a wrinkled hotel butler and a troupe of performing dwarves. Big chunks of this are without dialogue, and, even though other big chunks aren't immediately understandable, the scenes are so beautiful - as in THROUGH A GLASS DARKLY, nearly every shot would make a magnificent still photograph - I'm still thinking about them and trying to decipher their meaning days after seeing the movie. <P> ★★★☆☆ ½ <Br><Br><Br><Br> The Trilogy ★★★☆☆ ⅓

by Subtitles_Off
2010. Animated. <P> After the hectically-narrated opening salvo, in which most of the spoken humor flies by too quickly, this thing takes a deep breath and settles into, perhaps, the most gently reassuring and thoughtful of recent animated movies, and I'm including everything other than the first half of WALL-E. Friendship, independence, loyalty and diversity are the themes, presented in colorful CGI, with exciting explosions and stuff, you know, for the boys. I saw this with three kids, aged 10, 8 and 7 - two boys and a girl, and I worried that it might be a bit beyond their range, but I was proven wrong, as the older boy explained it to his siblings on the ride home with a couple of gentle corrections from his sister, the 7-year-old. <P> ★★★☆☆ ½

Haven't seen it all the way through since I was a youngun. Goddamn, I can't get over how amazing the dragon effects were in this movie! Way ahead of its time, it was. The dragon moved and had character when it did it. The story wasn't so bad, either.
-
Wish me luck. I don't have high hopes for this one, but I'm a sucker for alien abduction stories. That's why I used to love watching Unsolved Mysteries as a kid. And the book Communion is one of the scariest stories I've ever read. Too bad that Whitley Streiber has turned into such a hack.

that combines Terminator with breakdancing. But I think Flick and Mac have got the market cornered. That kind of awesome imagination is why I love the pedalback. Keep it up, fellas.

Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix! I can't stop listening to that fucking album and it's starting to drive me mad. Damn you and your fine taste in music, woman! Your "shitty dinner" sounds amazing to me.

Jim Beam and Yuengling. Are you ready for Rush's TIME MACHINE TOUR? Moving Pictures in its entirety, plus 6 new songs and a bunch of Rush nuggets. A 3 hour show, as per usual.<p. The focus is sharp in the city, mothehumpers. Get ready for a live Camera Eye.
-
It sounds like you're going cold turkey. It's crazy to go cold turkey.
-
But it sounds awesome! It's nice to see this weird resurgence in vocal love for Rush, but I'll go with it. I've always appreciated Rush would love to see them in an arena, where they belong.
-
I missed an entire Lotharius session. I could have been here, but I was off getting pissed in Rush land. This place is a good landing zone for good rock and good company. Sorry I missed you man.
-
I tried the patch and that was a disaster. However, cold turkey has presented me with a plethora of wonderful, lightheaded appreciations of sober thinking. The world is a far more depressing place than I remember it being.
-
Oh ho ho ho, man, Rush is among the best live bands around. They're even better now, a bunch of older, tough motherfuckers who rock out 3 hour shows as a matter of pride. But it's not a grim affair. They pack in plenty of humor. They even had South Park open for their signature song Tom Sawyer the last 2 times around. The boys from South Park were a band called... "Li'l Rush." It was beautiful.
-
I'm totally jealous of your excersion into Rush-land tonight. The last concert I went to was Kings of Leon with White Lies doing the opening act. Before that it was Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals, which was an amazing show. I'm kind of hooked on Phoenix now, but I thank you for the Porcupine Tree recommendation. They have destroyed my Pandora variety.
-
I've been a fan. Best drummer alive. He can even bring people back to life for fuck's sake.
-
I'm glad you dig PT. That band will fuck up a Pandora set list I imagine. They're catalogue is vast. So many great songs. Heard Lightbulb Sun yet?
-
I am indeed, pissed as a fart
-
I belive that connects gloriously to a series of jokes posted here earlier. I think my best was: ...phlegm on my pudenda!
-
I'll probably just hug myself or something. It's a great sound. Heard a lot of songs, but I don't think I've heard Lightbulb Sun yet. The selection Pandora has given me has mostly consisted of a slow duet between the lead and a chick that I have yet to identify. Best thing about the French band Phoenix is that they grow on you. Give 1901 a try.
-
due to the farting, and the pissing. Not really.<p> I wont do the mini url thing here, but watch this You Tube video I'm about to link. It stars Crispin Glover and John C.

is a long, serpentine jam that features sublime muscianship from all 4 players. All 4 are virtuosos. Porcupine Tree are utterly brilliant, and best of all, they do that madness live too. Good night!

I've watched that Drunk History and it's pretty enthralling. I'm as much for putting those things on DVD as I am thos awesome Plinkett reviews of the Star Wars prequels. I'm still deathly envious of your Rush experience.

Getting a quick one in before the commute to work. <p> Great Subbary as always!
-
Unsolved Mysteries episode. It is filmed with quite a bit of recreation vs. reality pathos that mix in interesting ways. It has a fascinating use of split screens and quadruple-split screens. But, it's no better than the "Fire in the Sky" and "Communion" movies that have come before it. In other words, it's a must for alien abduction movie fans, but a total bust for fans of movies of any other kind.
-
A great Subbary. You are a master, sir. Though I do think that inspired madness of the Terminator 2 the Streets posts deserve a little more notice. Glad you liked "How to Train Your Dragon" though. It was a near perfect family film in my opinion once you get past the first ten minutes, which seemed to struggle to find good pop culture humore before settling into storytelling mode.

was the narration. Due to the pacing of the first scene, it had to be so rapid-fire that you couldn't register any of it. They probably should have been more laconic at the very beginning, and, maybe, once the action kicked in, the narration could've been breathless and interrupted and panicky - less detailed - as if "Hiccup" couldn't keep his thoughts straight with all the chaos around him.<P>As it is, it just plays like a slap in the face. it wakes you up, but you're wondering what you did to deserve it because you've missed something.

Pretending he's the Jamie Gertz character from "The Lost Boys."
-
characterization of the heavy-set kid as sort of a "Dungeons & Dragons" geek - a joke that didn't really work, although it has a nice little pay-off during the climax - were the quibbles I had that kept the film from a solid four-star experience. (Plus, all the in-your-face 3D shit, which works on the kids while annoying me pissless.)

"Dragons" seemed to be trying too hard to be "Shrek"
by lotharius3rd1118
in the first act. But then it found it's own footing, which kinda works with the individuality angle of the second act. All in all, I lovee the design of that movie and think it's best when it just remains trues to its own silly nature and is not beholden to the hits that have come before it.
-
the dragon in "Dragonslayer" holds up. That 'great flick' was well ahead of its time in animatronic effects. IMO it matches up just as well with its real backgrounds as the dinosaurs did in "Jurassic Park." I love that the dragon moves so close to the ground and that it still possesses a real feeling as opposed to the CGI monsters of todays cinema.
-
Maybe I missed most of the pop culture references. What I could catch from the beginning seemed to be story-specific and clever, as opposed to stupid, juvenile and anachronistic like in SHREK and other DREAMWORKS' things. In fact, the adult in me was fully braced for the montage set to a five-year-old pop song, when I went in, but my inner child was surprised and grateful when I was leaving.

The album cover is a bland graphic. (http://tinyurl.com/ydwelrb)<P>The poster image (http://tinyurl.com/yebkob6) of heavy naked women on bicycles was a poster that was folded up and inserted into the album jacket to be kept from your parents' prying eyes. It's relatively harmless by today's standards, STL, unless you have some kind of uptight co-worker who's a prude. There's no sexual connotations implicit, really, in the image.

I've seen viral parodies on the Woods Nike thing today using audio from "The Lion King," "David After Dentist," and Tiger's own voicemail to one of his mistresses. There's even a lame Jimmy Kimmel version. None of them as good as either of yours.<P>How come all of these are floating around and not yours, dammit!

...I've never actually seen the show, but I'm picturing a pasty, middle-aged Predator blinking in bright camera lights and lamely trying to explain why it's perfectly natural to want to rip out underage spinal-column...

I really really appreciate that... actually, my vid was Huffington Post too, along with several others. It got about 16,000 views yesterday, it was really going viral but then YouTube slapped a copyright infringement on it, which I'm in the process of fighting, etc. I've done it before, it's really lame. But I really appreciate your praise. < P > Bless you.

to prove I wasn't crazy.<P>The 1975 ad here: http://tinyurl.com/yd6csrw (dude on the left, his right thigh) <P> and an enlargement of the questionable area: http://tinyurl.com/yerr549

"Tosh.0," "Web Soup," or even that Chelsea Handler broad with yours before they get tired of the lamer ones.

...that's a hell of a thing.<P> That's almost 32,000 eyeballs...if you adjust for pirates.

maybe a bit too obvious. You're nearly there. We need to think of a hobby or an unexpected link for the Predator. Like, as The Terminator is to breakdancing, and The Alien is to The Catholic Church, The Predator is to, I dunno, nude yoga or stamp-collecting.

Multiply 16,000 by two but subtract the number of patch-wearers among the pirates. Hehehehehehe.

So maybe the collect butterflies.<P>Or they're big game hunters.<P>Or, they film documentaries, but they can't stay indifferent, so they get in there and trash on the crocodiles while the zebras are crossing the river, or something.

they're always hassled at Airport Security.
