On the fence about ST3 by Alfred_Packer	Aug 5th, 2008 06:37:10 AM
maybe a rental....
A 3 hour cut of Popeye? by Alfred_Packer	Aug 5th, 2008 06:43:43 AM
Colour me interested. Criminally underrated film. Shelly Duvall is so great in that, and Williams is even watchable, which isnt so easy nowadays. The songs are just brilliant. Sweethaven looks more "real" than Spielberg's seaside town in Hook to me. "I'm buying - He's paying" Everthing is food food food. He's laaaarge.
KRULL is merely a re-issue, no? by 7-zark-7	Aug 5th, 2008 06:48:18 AM
... because I've had that same "Special Edition" in my DVD collection for a few years, now. And yes: KRULL is the sh*t. So much so, that I'd prefer it stay just as it is ... no remake/reimagining is necessary, IMO.
Krull! by kwisatzhaderach	Aug 5th, 2008 07:06:12 AM
Great James Horner score, even if it is exactly the same as his scores for Star Trek II and III.
I fucking love Krull! by Marxeffect	Aug 5th, 2008 07:06:58 AM
I dreamed for years of owning a proper kick ass glaive. i even tried making one out of sticks and cellotape but the bastard thing wouldn't come back to me!!
Harry..... by Holeman	Aug 5th, 2008 07:11:33 AM
You want to be taken seriously as a critic and you like fucking STARSHIP TROOPERS 3? Arguably one of the worst fucking movies since the fucking moving picture was turned into entertainment? Are you just genetically pre-disposed to liking total shit?
Holy hell! by elharlock	Aug 5th, 2008 07:12:16 AM
Jon Heder shot John Lennon!
The Lives of Others beat Pan's by Inglorious Bastard	Aug 5th, 2008 07:13:11 AM
I know somebody up there already said it, but it was The Lives of Others that beat out Pan's Labyrinth.
Yeah..it was The Lives of Others by Stormshadow4life	Aug 5th, 2008 07:18:59 AM
and it was good...but it was NO WHERE near as good as Pan's. I've wanted to see The Counterfeiters for a while now though...so I'll be checking it out.
2 disc set of Rock and Rule is great by DigitalDong	Aug 5th, 2008 07:29:14 AM
You get the other version of the film, but despite the video quality of it there's a different actor doing the protagonist's voice over and some plot points added in. Overall its better than the original.
My reactions to these DVDs by BobParr	Aug 5th, 2008 07:32:36 AM
POPEYE is a strangely rewatchable movie* Denise Richards is a massive cunt* KRULL sucks on every conceivable level. It's a friggen Chinese throwing star people!!!
What's up with the Indy look-alike by Abominable Snowcone	Aug 5th, 2008 07:33:04 AM
on the cover of Nims Island? I didn't see the movie, so I don't know what that's about. As for Jodi Foster, I would SO do her
Went to Malta to check out the Popeye Studios. by Knuckleduster	Aug 5th, 2008 07:41:39 AM
It was quite an experience. Surprizing how many films get shot there. Also checked out the pub where Oliver Reed passed away. Great place. Haven't seen Lonesome Dove yet, but if it's anything like Broken Trail, I'm sure I'll like it. P.S. Krull is nowhere near as cool as Hawk The Slayer. Now that's a trash classic.
Numeier Did Starship Troopers 3?! by LaserPants	Aug 5th, 2008 08:08:47 AM
Wow! Now I actually want to see it. I love the original. Totally hilarious subversive satire of US foreign policy disasters of the past 40 years or so. I'm actually more interested in that than the effects, so, I'll probably like this.
HA!...KRULL....all I have to say is HA!! by FlickaPoo	Aug 5th, 2008 08:10:20 AM

Popeye! Harry, what do you mean when you by Sith Witch	Aug 5th, 2008 08:12:07 AM
say that Popeye hasn't been re-released since '93? The first DVD came out June 24th 2003, and I know that well because it was the day I'd waited for four long years until that title finally saw blessed release! Now let's have a sequel with Seahag and the Island of the Goons!
I love that POPEYE exists. Can you imagine.... by FlickaPoo	Aug 5th, 2008 08:15:24 AM
...any studio giving the OK to that movie today?...inconceivable. (although if today they wanted to VERY subtly use CG to let Popeye wind his arm up for a punch and have his little round bicep muscle bulge and then travel down his arm to his fist to help him deliver a knockout blow...I'd allow that. Subtly). And I could look at that fishing village all day...
Popeye is interesting but lasts far too long as it is by hegele	Aug 5th, 2008 08:18:56 AM
I could never get through the whole thing. I'm not sure a 3 hour cut will sell. But i'm not against it sitting in the basement of Paramount either.
guess i'll never meet President Evil :P by Bouncy X	Aug 5th, 2008 08:20:39 AM
yeah..i did it, sue me. i figured that for 60$ (considering blu-ray prices in canada) that was a good price. yeah i thought part 2 sucked and chances are 3 will as well but i'm sucker for collection sets.
Glaive? by starmand	Aug 5th, 2008 08:33:14 AM
Admittedly I've never seen Krull, but I thought a glaive was a pole-arm with a blade...
"Paul Verhoeven Presents" by skimn	Aug 5th, 2008 08:57:57 AM
In what capacity did Verhoeven work on this direct-to-video cheapie? Did they just pay him to slap his name on the box? And wouldn't high definition just magnify the low budget? I am curious to rent if Numeier's script is indeed good. Always loved the Kenny Rogers look Tommy Lee Jones appropriated for Lonesome Dove. Was his hair that white?? He was only in his early 40's when that was made? Sure doesn't look like hair color for the beard.
Fuck You Harry by oogabooga	Aug 5th, 2008 08:58:37 AM
ST3 is a horrible piece of low budget shit and the only reason you have it on here is so you could include the Amazon link to buy all 3 movies you hack. Oh and Lonesome Dove is the best Western ever so up yours
More Horner ripping off Horner by skimn	Aug 5th, 2008 09:02:14 AM
Music cues from The Wolfen and Aliens.
A Film By Andrew Piddington by skimn	Aug 5th, 2008 09:08:49 AM
Ex-fucking-pardon me? So we have this AND the Jared Leto, Mark Chapman flick. Isn't that 2 too many for that crazy fuck.
fuckin love krull by El Borak	Aug 5th, 2008 09:14:38 AM
always have.

"starring the ungodly handsome Alain Delon" by MRJONZ72	Aug 5th, 2008 09:23:04 AM

Krull! by red_weed	Aug 5th, 2008 09:27:06 AM
We have krullathon every year in this house. we watch krull then a selection of other 80's fantasy/sci-fi epics. but nothing can truly beat krull. It's the best.
Killing of lennon... by tehDude	Aug 5th, 2008 09:35:58 AM
.. maybe a good movie, but I'd rather forget about the whole tragic episode and just enjoy the man and his music. I don't want to know why the COCKSUCKER did it or his motivations, I don't want to give this fucker space in my imagination thankyou, so I'll pass.. and speaking of cocksuckers, DEADWOOD is the best TV Western. :p
I remember seeing Popeye in the theater back in the 80's by Snookeroo	Aug 5th, 2008 09:36:01 AM
I walked out halfway through the movie. It IS that bad. Yes. Oh yes.
KRULL DVD by Admiral Akwelches	Aug 5th, 2008 09:43:26 AM
Was the dvd artwork designed in 1983, too? I'd love to be a bad artist, where do you sign up?
Favorite moment in Krull... by Kevin Holsinger	Aug 5th, 2008 09:51:29 AM
Colwyn sticks his hand into the lava to retrieve the Glaive...and there's NO EXPLANATION GIVEN as to why he assumed his hand wouldn't just melt off. Sure, it worked in the end, and maybe the "I take fire from water" thing is part of the explanation, but all I see is a guy sticking his hand into lava like it never occurred to him that this wasn't a good idea.
krull by chokinonrhodes	Aug 5th, 2008 09:54:24 AM
one of my favorite movies as a kid. blu-ray please?
Lonesome Dove by EriamJH	Aug 5th, 2008 09:58:45 AM
Best western miniseries: Agree. Not the best transition of Larry McMurty's fine, lingering prose, but damn fine. In fact, Costner's great movie "Open Range" had more feel of a McMurty novel than this miniseries did. (So did "Brokeback Mountain," but McMurty cowrote that screenplay.) That said, if Robert Duvall only played grizzled cowboys for the rest of his career, I would be happy!
Lonesome Dove is better than Harry claims. by Stereotypical Evil Archer	Aug 5th, 2008 10:09:36 AM
Yeah, it's not the best Western ever made, but it's close, very close. It has a young Steve Buscemi! Plus this is Robert Duvall's all time greatest role and perhaps the same can be said of Tommy Lee Jones.
I didn't say LONESOME DOVE was bad by HEADGEEK	Aug 5th, 2008 10:16:09 AM
but to claim it's the best western ever - you kinda need to have seen at least around 400+ westerns. I've seen over 700, easy. And when I say there's 80-90 better westerns, I'm not kidding. You guys have any conception of how many great westerns are out there? The silents, the black & whites, the color, the cinemascope, the Italians, the Post-Italian American Western revitalization? It is a vast and varied genre filled with great cinema. LONESOME DOVE is one of the greatest Televised Dramas of all time. That's praise enough - but you start comparing it to Ford, Wyler, Sturges, Hawks, Leone, Corbucci, Fuller, Peckinpah and the dozens and dozens of other great Western auteurs... you'll see how it just isn't all that.
Frederick Forrest's Blue Duck in LONESOME DOVE... by Tacom	Aug 5th, 2008 10:21:48 AM
is probably the most vile, loathsome villain I've ever seen. I never wanted a character to die more.
Down, Harry, Down! by EriamJH	Aug 5th, 2008 10:28:04 AM
You know us fans of the Western genre (with a capitol "W") agree. Where would one start-and-end the list? It seems every decade or so the genre gets redefined... 70s got away from "blame the Injun" and that not every hero was flawless. 80s went back to Baby Boomers' memories ("Silverado") with apologetic tones ("Dances with Wolves"). 90s and "Unforgiven" may have totally deconstructed all the stereotyped scripts. My vote for best reinvention of western in the 2000s HAS to be HBO's "Deadwood." (And anyone who says otherwise sucks cock by choice!)
The Best Western Ever Is... by OGREISHERE	Aug 5th, 2008 10:28:48 AM
The Good The Bad and The Ugly followed by the Searchers.
Starship Troopers BR does NOT have all the DVD extras... by Admonisher	Aug 5th, 2008 10:33:47 AM
Or at least, the marketing makes no mention of the isolated score track with commentary by composer Basil Poledouris (R.I.P.) that was on the 2-disc DVD. It's one of Basil's finest scores, and the soundtrack CD was criminally short, so this was a phenomenal feature. Can Harry confirm this is missing from Blu-Ray?
Killing of a COCKSUCKER by The8thSamurai	Aug 5th, 2008 10:34:41 AM
You passive agressive motherfucker. How many times can you equate sucking cock to murder in one paragraph? It's 2008, man. That kind of homophobia doesn't fly anymore, and only makes you look like a bigot. Take note.
Agreed with you about the western Harry... by samuraiyao	Aug 5th, 2008 10:48:43 AM
The best genre in American filmmaking has to be Westerns... Calling one movie the best ever western is nonsense... There are so many to choose from..
THE COUNTERFEITERS was powerful. by LoneGun	Aug 5th, 2008 10:56:11 AM
Great wartime story with a compelling moral dilemma. These Jewish prisoners are given a choice between death or helping the Nazi war effort by counterfeiting the British pound and U.S. dollar. Terrific performances. Well shot. And very, very moving. Along with LONESOME DOVE, this is the title of the week.
As a Texan you should be ashamed by homer40	Aug 5th, 2008 11:14:22 AM
We understand Harry, you've seen a lot of movies, including a lot of westerns. I just have to disagree with you about there being 90+ westerns that are better than Lonesome Dove. Just not the case at all. I've probably watched more westerns in my 43 years of film viewing than any other genre, and I think Lonesome Dove is as good as any of them. Yes, I am saying that Lonesome Dove is as good as The Searchers, Red River, Unforgiven, Fort Apache, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon, Wild Bunch...I could go on. When people ask me, for example, what the best western ever is, I tell them I won't say which is "the best". It is an exercise in futility. I will give them a list of my favorites, along with some historical and critical reasoning that forms the basis of my list. If I was to make a list of the top twenty westerns, in no particular order, Lonesome Dove would be on the list. I have read every McMurtry book, every one, most several times. He is one of the great American writers, and perhaps the best living author (along with T.C Boyle and John Irving), and the entire Lonesome Dove saga is brilliant. What is amazing about Lonesome Dove is that it more than compensates for its TV budget with great writing and superb acting, not just from Duvall, but from the entire cast. Watching Lonesome Dove when it was first aired was like a religious experience for me, and I just couldn't believe how good it was. It is Duvall's best performance, even better than his work in Godfather II, and it is one of the most thrilling and moving films ever made. I can't even think about Gus's death scene without crying, no less watching it. Lonesome Dove perfectly captured the novel's epic scale, which McMurtry uses only as a backdrop for his character driven novels, and takes the emotional connection with the characters to a level unseen in all but the best films. I've liked all of the minis based on this series, including Comanche Moon, which is probably the best other than the original. Sure, don't skip the greats by Ford, but you must see Lonesome Dove for your western film education to be close to complete. And while you are at it, read the novel a couple of times, and the prequels, and the great sequel. Take a year to read all the McMurtry novels, westerns and contemporary alike. For a comparison of when the adaptations work, like Lonesome Dove, watch Buffalo Girls, which was a great novel that didn't work at all as a movie, even with a good cast. Marvel at McMurtry's ability to merge comedy, action, horrific death, and moving drama, all in a page. His last book, Loop Group, was about two middle aged pot smoking sluts who run a Loop Group, and it was amazing, as was the recent Berrybender Chronicles. For the best treatment of Billy the Kid, read Anything for Billy. For a book that makes the ending of Terms of Endearment look happy, read Some Can Whistle (and the first book in the series "All of My Friends Are Going to Be Strangers). Can't say enough good about McMurtry and Lonesome Dove.
Horner re-using his stuff by ByTor	Aug 5th, 2008 11:21:16 AM
Cheesy, I know, but I'm sorry. Horner gets a lifetime pass for his ST II score.
"Kinda Wish" by Wrath4771	Aug 5th, 2008 11:33:52 AM
"Kinda wish this wasn't based on a true story"? F*ck Mark David Chapman what awaits him won't be nearly severe enough. This scum could never suffer enough.
I LOVE Popeye by jimmy_009	Aug 5th, 2008 11:43:14 AM
I couldn't believe when I heard so many people associated with the film had disowned it. It's so much fun, the set designs are amazing, and the music gets me right here. Loved it as a kid, still love it today.
Sith Witch... by www.valiens.com	Aug 5th, 2008 12:06:33 PM
Judging by your love of an awful movie I'd guess that June 23, 2003 was the last time you experienced "blessed release."
Popeye and Krull... the 80s return! by JustinSane	Aug 5th, 2008 12:10:01 PM
I want to see that 3-hour cut of Popeye. That octopus scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. And Krull is fine just the way it is - no remake necessary! Unless, of course, they get the same guy to play Ergo the magician...
Oh, never mind... by JustinSane	Aug 5th, 2008 12:10:52 PM
...David Battley, who played Ergo, passed away in 2003. That sucks, and Krull should now never be remade.
Again Fuck you Harry by oogabooga	Aug 5th, 2008 12:11:03 PM
I was aware that your comment was more about you wanting to brag about how many movies you've seen but come on. You talk about dozens of other great western auteurs but the ones you mention aren't even better than Dove: Peckinpah? The Wild Bunch was average. Leone very stylish and innovative but great meh. Wyler Big Country and the Westerner were both very good but not great. Corbucci I've never seen so that leaves Ford and Sturges who have several movies that could be argued are better and Hawks' Rio Bravo thats a hell of a long way from 80+ assclown
Deadwood = Greatness by toshiro-solo	Aug 5th, 2008 12:15:32 PM
Better than Lonesome Dove. That's right. As far as good recent Western MOVIES, I'd go with The Proposition.
odd Lonesome Dove hate by blackhole4140	Aug 5th, 2008 12:45:11 PM
A pity Harry is too big of a snob to appreciate Lonesome Dove. Bearing in mind it was made before HBO hit its stride making original programming during a time when Westerns were deader than dead, it's pretty damn near a miracle.
I just got off the phone with Harry by deadnotsleeping	Aug 5th, 2008 12:49:25 PM
and we were talking about how people in here are getting on his back for westerns & homophobia and not for the name dropping. What the hell are these TB's coming too???
Lonesome Dove IS one of the best Westerns. by Imagikafan	Aug 5th, 2008 01:00:28 PM
I've seen well over 400 Westerns, and it's in my top 5. It's definitely Duvall's best performance.
HMMM by macheesmo3	Aug 5th, 2008 01:35:04 PM

Hmmm by macheesmo3	Aug 5th, 2008 01:37:51 PM
I would say that it is a top 10 or so western that I have seen. It's up there with The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance , and High Noon nad the Leone films , The Wild Bunch , Outlaw Josie Wales ,The Searchers , 7 Men From Now , Bad Day at Black Rock and Django. But it's a mini series , so it's hard to put something with that much content in competition wit ha normal 2 hour film. Great nonetheless
Is that Casper Van Dien on the ST3 cover? by Big Jim	Aug 5th, 2008 01:49:41 PM
Was he in #2 too? I saw Starship Troopers a week or two ago on tv and, as I said then, watching Van Dien and Denise Richards together on screen was like watching balsa wood interact with chipboard. Yet still it is one of those movies that whenever it is on I can't help but watch.
lives of others.. by ranma627	Aug 5th, 2008 02:30:22 PM
..did beat Pan's Labyrinth. And yes, it was the better movie. Pan's was overrated and I was happy to see Del Toro lose on that one. Now, all we hear about Del Toro when his films come out is "The director of Pan's Labyrinth." Don't get me wrong, I love Del Toro. But Pan's was a letdown for me. Like I have always said, Devil's Backbone is Del Toro's masterpiece.
Krull kicks ass!! by disfigurehead	Aug 5th, 2008 02:31:56 PM
Popeye is good too. I saw it in the theater originally.
I watched ST3 last night... by MisterE	Aug 5th, 2008 02:37:06 PM
I watched Starship Troopers 3 last night, and liked it quite a bit more than I expected. I'm glad that Casper Van Dien signed on for this film, because his inclusion made this feel like a real sequel to the first movie. It's not close to being as good as the first film (one of my top-15 favorites of all time), but is 1000+ times better than ST2. Unlike ST2, this film is actually worth watching. All ST3 is really missing is more special effects and a nude scene with Jolene Blalock.
Here is the Knowledge you SEEK!!!! by Wrecks	Aug 5th, 2008 02:37:49 PM
As much as I would love to see a full on super spectactular remake of Krull, it would really just ruin it. The cheese is part of it's charm.... Each to his fate.
now about john lennon.... by dalbatron	Aug 5th, 2008 02:39:33 PM
Lets be honest. is it just me or was he a little over-rated.. i think so. yeah he was killed and thats tragic BUT there are people who have done far worse.. he was a man, a muscian who was fortunate enough to have a platform from which to preach. Just listen to some of his last stuff, quite shit actually.Plus do some homework and youll find out he wasnt the saint you think he was.. he had some flaws, just like the rest of us ' humans'... BTW krull does rock!!! and i remember watching lonesome dove with some mates whilst at school and it was the first time most of us had openly cried in front of one another....
Harry's suggestion of remaking Krull by The Cine-eater	Aug 5th, 2008 03:13:46 PM
is the very reason why we are being bombarded with crap remakes every week, if Harry and others keep saying this and people keep watching them the studios will keep making them.Harry for a change stop giving studios ideas for remakes and kick-start the idea for some originality in Hollywood again.
Lonesome Dove by Ted Brautigan	Aug 5th, 2008 03:16:44 PM
LD is one of the best books I've ever read. That they translated it almost perfectly for TV was amazing. Anyone seen the HD widescreen version yet? Or found the limited packaging?
3 hours of popeye? by Varakor	Aug 5th, 2008 03:25:57 PM
Could be fun. But yea ST sucked big sweaty donkey balls, sorry to all the fans but when a giant pincer stabs you in the back, and you LIVE... UGH... i feel the taint of that movie creeping along my skin.... I can't get it off!! I CAN'T GET IT OFF!!!

Is Lonesome Dove a tough western? by DANNYGLOVERS_DICKBLOOD	Aug 5th, 2008 03:59:16 PM
I've never seen it. Aren't women really into it?
Harry? wtf? watch ROGUE, it ROCKED! by GavinVanDraven	Aug 5th, 2008 04:04:19 PM
Rouge is possibly the best croc movie ever made. its Jaws with a crocodile! its better than Primeval and Lake Placid (and Lake Placid 2 is a steaming pile of shit, mind you... dont even count that one) the only movie of its kind that comes close for me was Black Water, because those crocs were real (open water style)Rouge was 10 times better than Starship Troopers 3. man, you really like to waste your time watching crap movies. you should review The Killing Gene next (its very SEVENish), but you will probably watch The Scorpion King 2 right?
or maybe Prom Night by GavinVanDraven	Aug 5th, 2008 04:06:39 PM
was more your taste Harry? that movie made me angry. at least i didnt pay for that DOGSHIT.
KRULL by GavinVanDraven	Aug 5th, 2008 04:08:58 PM
rules. its that simple. and yes, it is cheese. but its good cheese. its like Beastmaster cheese. Remake both of them. somebody? you know its gonna happen. mmmmmmm cheese.....
Harry's comment on Counterfeiters... by Lenny Nero	Aug 5th, 2008 05:06:17 PM
"Check it out – realize that the film is about a Jewish counterfeiting operation during Nazi Germany." Is that a threat?
The8thSamurai by jfp2007	Aug 5th, 2008 05:50:00 PM
What world are you living in? Yes, it does still fly, and I'm a proud, card carrying advocate of it.
Krull by Kurutteru Yatsu	Aug 5th, 2008 05:55:31 PM
Only line I remember is the goofy magician guy looking up at the cyclops and saying, "We had no time." Out of the entire movie that's what sticks with me. Odd. Maybe I'll throw in the DVD if nothing's on TV.
I dunno, Popeye bored the shit outta my ten-year-old mind. by YotzVonFrelnik	Aug 5th, 2008 06:06:00 PM
Could I stand three hours of it? If it makes it better, then I'd be way curious.
Popeye contains two great performances... by Bubba Gillman	Aug 5th, 2008 06:29:03 PM
...trapped in an ugly, poorly shot mess with some of the worst songs ever inflicted upon a musical (and I generally like Harry Nilsson). Robert Atlman's avocation seemed to be denegrating populist film making, but this is what he came up with when trying to make a popular entertainment. Maybe it's harder than it seems.
Are you kidding me, Popeye? by Trazadone	Aug 5th, 2008 06:50:50 PM
Popeye is one of the worst films I've ever seen in my life (see also, Xanadu, Sgt. Peppers, and Cannonball Run 2). I dare anyone to try to make it through Popeye.

What the Fuck Harry???? by picardsucks	Aug 5th, 2008 08:31:19 PM
A slew of Johnnie TO films are now out in Blu-fucking- Ray !!! Mad Detective, PTU and Exiled (one of the best action dramas in 10 years) Johnne To fuckers!!! Johnnie To!!!! And Yack is right every Horner score is a riff of Trek II. THe most obvious rip is in Aliens when Ripley drives the transport through the hive and the score makes you think Khan and the Reliant are about to ambush them with their shields down!!!
Lonesome Dove by Charlie_Allnut	Aug 5th, 2008 08:32:30 PM
If you have not seen this movie, mini series whatever, see it immediately! The scale and the acting is unbelievable especially considering its a late 80's TV mini series. Westerns are one of my favorite genres. John Ford is one of my favorite directors. I have seen the Wyler movies etc. This still ranks as one of my top Westerns ever due to the depth and nuance of the characters, and the phenomenal acting, script etc. The book is great too.
re: John Lennon and IMAGINE by sonnyhooper	Aug 5th, 2008 08:38:48 PM
first off, yeah i know Lennon wasn't a saint. By all accounts he was a real asshole to his first wife and his son Julian. and i'm sure he could be a grade A dick when he wanted to be, but none of that changes the fact that he was taken from us, far too soon, by a worthless piece of shit with a gun. and anyone who makes movies about that piece of shit that killed lennon (no matter what the intention) is giving the piece of shit exactly what he wanted: undeserved fame. so fuck that movie, fuck everyone who worked on it, and fuck anyone who watches it. second: i know everyone has different taste and all that, but how do you not like imagine? i mean some songs i can understand not liking. "bungalo bill" and "across the universe" i could see, those songs kinda suck, as did just about everything he did with yoko. but IMAGINE? that song has to be right up there with bob marleys "redemption song" as one of the most beautiful and heart-felt things ever written.
sonnyhooper........re: IMAGINE.... by FlickaPoo	Aug 5th, 2008 08:53:03 PM
...you say..."one of the most beautiful and heart-felt things ever written"...and that's exactly why I hate that song....it describes a lobotomized and Thorazine addled world where nobody accomplished much of anything because they need both hands to hold their drool buckets. Sample lyric "Nothing to kill or die for"...well, I haven't ever killed anyone and I don't plan to, but there are one or two things I would kill or die for, my daughter at the top of that list. And the few people I know who truly "live for today" are real assholes. You're free to enjoy it though. Best. FlickaPoo.
re: John Lennon and Imagine by Odkin	Aug 5th, 2008 08:54:36 PM
Imagine is the worst song ever written. It is a nihilist song advocating belief in nothing. "no heaven"?, "nothing to kill or die for"? "no religion"? "living for today"? So basically it advocates people existing like animals with no aspirations, no beliefs, no dreams, no accomplishments, no right or wrong. Maybe when we're all dead and perfected in heaven, these things will be possible. But never by humans on Earth. Ever.

I Once Got a Prank Phone Call at Work... by TheEleventhDoctor	Aug 6th, 2008 01:49:47 AM
I was a customer service manager for a newspaper. Everyone had left to placate upset customers who hadn't gotten their papers and I was left to hold down the fort. This around the height of SCREAM's popularity. Anyway, I got a prank phone call from a guy asking me what my favorite scary movie was. I thought for a second and said, "POPEYE scared the shit out of me as a child." The started cracking up laughing and goes, "That was good." and hung up. Good times.

I tells ya. And as a Brit, KRULL never worked for me, partly because there are too many familiar UK TV faces in the cast - that affected the fantasy element. But then again, I liked THE SWORD AND THE SORCERER and that Sean Connery version of GAWAIN AND THE GREEN KNIGHT, so what do I know?
John Lennon by Lost Jarv	Aug 6th, 2008 06:09:52 AM
is boring pretentious dreck. The man is a cunt, and this film (which is basically him doing nothing) is an excuse for the voiceover lifted from his diary. It's pretentious rubbish masquerading as high art, and the solemn tone to it makes people think that it is actually more profound than it is. Avoid. To begin with, there is no need to glorify this asshole, and secondly if the purpose is to ask "why" he did it, then at least try to provide a fucking answer that isn't the self serving garbage spewed from an obsessed nutter's diary.
I have a Blueray Question.... by Redbox	Aug 6th, 2008 06:29:09 AM
What's the point of putting a 1960's TV show on Blueray? Wouldn't that be like eating a Twinkie on fine china? What kind of quality can you add to a show that was made for a lower quality medium like 1960's TV. Isn't regular DVD already getting all the data? Just wondering if there really is a reason to want Star Trek on Blueray or if this is just an example of consumer passion and idiocy.
Memories-Of-Murder, Nasty In The Pasty by 7-zark-7	Aug 6th, 2008 06:36:49 AM
is right; there is a James Horner cue from ALIENS used in DIE HARD, at the very end (when Karl appears out of nowhere, wielding a rifle, at the base of the Nakatomi Building). Michael Kamen was indeed the composer for DIE HARD's score -- but not for that particular bit.

He casually puts his ultra liberal street cred that he brags about all the time on temporary hold, and starts venomously throwing out the word "COCKSUCKER" every 4th word. On another note I disagree with most posters here, and am actually looking forward to the third Starship Troopers and think its a good addition to Harry's weekly picks.
Lonesome Dove is brilliant by m_prevette	Aug 6th, 2008 08:00:00 AM
And based on the script, the character depth, the raw emotion almost every character displays, the excellent performances, the direction, the score...yes it's pretty near the best western ever made. It's absurd to say there are 90+ westerns better than LD. As breathtaking as a Leone western may be, in terms of subtle nuance in storytelling or brilliance of performances, they are nowhere near the same class as Lonesome Dove. Try...just try to find a performance in any western as heartbreaking as Duvall's Agustus ...no one has come close. Not Wayne in The Searchers, no one. It's too bad if a TV miniseries made in the 80's trumps hundreds of "classic" westerns...but it does. Plus Harry...don't use the term "retard", it's crude and offensive.

Bouncy X re: Horner and Die Hard by m_prevette	Aug 6th, 2008 10:14:26 AM
Yes, at the end when Karl comes out and is shot by Powell, the music is cue tracked in from Horner's Aliens score, and right before that a music cue from John Scott's Man On Fire score is used. Both were temp track cues that the director loved and decided to license and keep in the film.

Dark City conspiracy by amano	Aug 6th, 2008 11:43:56 AM
I went out yesterday to get the new BluRay director's cut of Dark City and not a single store had it. Best Buy, Circut City, FYE, Target, Blockbuster, Hollywood Video - not one of these stores had a single copy and it's been out for weeks. The guy at Best Buy told me that five people were looking for the same movie just that day. Why in the hell is this? I know I can order it online for cheaper but I wanted to get it for my brother's birthday that day. It just doesn't make any sense to me that all of these stores will carry loads of direct to video crap like Starship Troopers 3 and Lost Boys Tribe and not at least have one or two copies of Dark City. I've read several articles online about this release and in one Proyas talks about how he's glad that maybe more people will be made aware of this movie now with this release, but that's gonna be kinda hard when no major stores are carrying it. Can anyone enlighten me on who dropped the ball on this? Would this be the distributers fault or the individual corporations or the stores themselves?

RedBox: Old shows on Blu-Ray by nyj_et	Aug 6th, 2008 01:38:53 PM
Old TV shows were shown on (by today's standards) low-quality sets, but were actually filmed, rather than video tape. This can mmake for a beautiful transfer to high definition, just like any old films transferred to high definition. For a good example of this, check out reruns of Hogan's Heroes every morning on HDNet.
3 hour Popeye by Crimson Dynamo	Aug 6th, 2008 02:03:15 PM
I would be interested in seeing this, but I thought with Popeye pretty much everything shot was used. I know at one point near the end of production they considered scrapping the whole thing and animating it. It could stand a sequel/re-imagining though - imagine the Burly Brawl but with Popeye fighting Goons. As for Lennon, it's hard to get past his whole peace, bed-in, Yoko schtick and his mediocre solo albums, but if you look back to the early Beatles, the guy could practically shit good songs.

John Lennon & Imagine by tk 421	Aug 6th, 2008 03:11:09 PM
Needs to be viewed in the context of the time he wrote that song. I mean, he was having that Bed-In or whatever with Yoko and was an enormous opponent of the Vietnam war. Like most protest songs of the day, it lacked any of the cynical edge that exists in society today. Yes, viewed through the lens of today, it's a naive song. Anyway, don't know what my point is, I just don't understand the hate for John Lennon. I mean, I've always preferred Paul, but how can anyone hate John Lennon as a musician?

I Also Have The Star Trek Season 1 Set in HD DVD by Real Deal	Aug 6th, 2008 04:51:56 PM
I already bought the season 2 set because I don't know how long they're going to take to release it in BR. I've been putting off buying a BR player until they hit the $199.00 price point that my HD DVD player had. At that point I'll be convinced it's going to stay around for awhile ( yes I know it looks that way already ). The point of this is the new FXs are what make this special. The SD transfer is really good. The colors just seem to pop off the screen and it's unedited for modern commercials. The cutting they did to make room not only cut the old stuff but some of the new FXs as well. Sorry I just couldn't wait and will probably be buying this again someday. As Spock would say logic would dictate that they release it on BR as soon as possible. To be in step with what they did before. They haven't so I can only conclude this is some studio genius delaying it for political reasons.
A glaive by Mockingbuddha	Aug 6th, 2008 04:56:23 PM
was originally a pole-arm with a curved sword like blade at the end. The online dictionaries don't even acknowledge the throwing weapons as glaives. But I found a bunch of sites that call all fancy throwing blades glaives. My guess is that Krull started this trend of calling fancy throwing stars glaives. Now if the dictionary folks would catch on that would be a pretty cool cultural influence for a pretty cool movie. To me The Glaive was the star of the film.
re: John Lennon and IMAGINE by sonnyhooper	Aug 6th, 2008 05:05:06 PM
actually the song is a bit deeper that the literal reading of the lyrics. it advocates for a better world by people letting go of the things that divide them. "no religion" doesn't mean that religion wouldn't exist, instead it simply means it would be a non issue. the song begs the question "imagine if none of these things existed, what then would we have to fight wars over." it's a protest song posing a hypothetical question, you have to look a bit deeper than you are to get the true meaning. and not for nothing but just for the record, john isn't my favorite beatle either, and neither is paul. song for song, pound for pound, george was by far the most talented guy in that band.

Don't get your hopes up too high for DC on HD. They've "Patton-ised" it. Terrible DNR and edge 'enhancement'. Loss of the original film grain and therefore high-frequency detail. It's bullshit. The only really good thing is the great sound. Return of the plasticised people. That's not HD, that's the ignorance of the pan-and-scan demographic rearing it's ugly head again. I guess Proyas didn't get to see this shit before it went out...
Maybe it was the factor of lowered expectations by skimn	Aug 7th, 2008 08:29:20 AM
but Starship 3 wasn't bad for direct-to-video. Yes the acting was fair to poor and the effects were Commodore 64-ish, but creeping around the edges and seeping in from time to time was the satire that we loved from the original. Enjoyed the singing general (shades of John Ashcroft) and "It's A Good Day To Die", the internet interrupts (the instant enrollment option tab, that locked you into military service if you clicked it), the casual nudity before scanning, the Marauders, the theme of "He's following the wrong God"... But Blalock's lips were so damned distracting. They're not Jolie bee-stung sexy, but looked like two slabs of veal. They did help distract from her "acting" ability.
Re: more ST3 by skimn	Aug 7th, 2008 08:49:05 AM
Oh, and I got the feeling that the singing general was trying to channel Terry O'Quinn with his performance. He kind of resembled him also.

Krull (SPOILERS) by strosmer	Aug 7th, 2008 10:55:42 AM
Remember seeing it in the theater in '83. Very cool movie for an 8 year old. Haven't seen it in ages. Wonder how it holds up. I remember a lot of vivid imagery from it: Cyclops dude, swamp scene, horses with firey feet flying through the sky (awesome), creepy-ass living? evil fortess with giant white widow spider, Cyclops dude gets crushed between walls, fortress monster being sliced up with the Glaive. To remember that much of it after 25 years must be some testament to the imagination that was poured onto the screen in this film. I may have to give it another go soon.

The Killing of John Lennon, John Lennon & Imagine by DoubleFantasy	Aug 8th, 2008 12:40:47 PM
As a massive JL fan I can say I was in 2 minds what to think about this film. It's very powerful but in NO WAY whatsoever glorifies it. And as an act of social and historical importance I think it's important for the story to be told. The actual killing of Lennon in the film is almost like the Zapruder film of his murder. It is so perfectly and awfully realistic that it takes you completely off guard despite it all leading to that moment. I burst into tears as soon as that scene hit and the film reinforced the point that a genius was taken from us by a pathetic little weasel with a gun. It's that easy for the bad guys to win. It's truly awful and the film handles it with a great deal of honesty. Any JL fan saying that they would never watch this and anyone involved with it should burn in hell dont get the bigger picture. It's not glorification on any level. That's what Chapter 27 was - utter filthy trash. Also as for the Imagine hate, well it's only cause it is so goddamn popular. Kinda like Bohemian Rhapsody. But I think it's Lennon's best song by miles. Maybe not his most artistically creative or musically complex but it summed up HIS perfect ideal world - perfectly. And he only asked us to IMAGINE that ideal. He wasn't preaching. A lot of people gloss over the very title of the song. He's only asking Imagine the world like this - would it work? Could it work. It's hilarious to hear idiots attacking the song and calling it nihilistic, a joke, etc. Lennon only wanted us to think about a reality where we were all passive and peace-loving. He knew it would never and could never be a reality. And for the dipshit who said Across The Universe was crap... Fuck me you're a fool.

Lennon's assassin by leftofcentristdotcom	Aug 8th, 2008 01:45:05 PM
I refuse to even use this guy's name. He was "he who shall not be named" long before Voldemort. The reason he killed Lennon was so he could share in his fame and films like this only serve to justify the killing in this asshole's mind.
Leftofcentristdotcom... by DoubleFantasy	Aug 8th, 2008 04:23:16 PM
...I totally agree with you on that point. I see it the way Yoko explained it once. That man is as unimportant as the gun itself. It means nothing. He was just a tool of destruction and he deserves to be ignored and shunned by society. But I also believe we can learn from the tragic assassination of one of the worlds greatest social and musical icons through something like the medium of film if treated with respect. The Killing of John Lennon wasn't perfect but I can see what the director wanted to do and I respect that.

2 Things I Remember From LONESOME DOVE on TV by Red Dawn Don	Aug 9th, 2008 09:33:31 PM
First, calling sex with a gal/prostitute "A Poke", and second the grisly death of the young cowboy by all those cotton-mouth snakes in the river. To all the standard format (not blew-ray ramano) DVD buyers. I was just in my local BIG LOTS store and they had a large bin of DVD's for $3. They had the Mick Jagger Aussie western NED KELLY for $3. I almost bought the Gregory Peck flick DUEL IN THE SUN, but in was in full-screen. NK and DITS are both good westerns.
Alfred packer by LeviDTinker	Aug 9th, 2008 10:51:27 PM
Last year Paul Dooley was at my work, and i was asking him some questions about popeye. (as its one of my favorite film) and he was telling me that Altman wanted the look and feel of seahaven to be as authentic as possible, And they actually constructed a real village in the country of Malta to be seahaven on screen. He said the Sweethaven set was built to be a authentic real village, and not your typical back lot facades used for most productions. He also said it is still standing to this very day and is in fact a theme park now in malta called SweetHaven Village he shared a few great stories with me, was a real pleasure getting to talk to him about one of my favorite films. I would love to see this 3 hour cut heck i am still waiting for paramount and disney to issue the soundtrack on cd.

LONESOME DOVE takes us where few 2-hour movies can. by JDanielP	Aug 10th, 2008 03:20:41 AM
Just take it from me, as someone who REFUSED to watch "Lonesome Dove" for the longest time. There was just something about that title... "Lonesome Dove" ...that seemed over-saturated. Frankly, it just sounded like a sappy, television mini-series. And yet, every so often, it would be mentioned in certain circles, in conversation with family and/or friends,...any time the subject of the western genre came into play. Then one afternoon, on a weekend with nothing planned, a family member practically cornered me and insisted that I watch it. ALL 6+ hours of it. So, finally,...what the hell, right? I figured that I could leave at any time. But what I found in "LONESOME DOVE" was a newfound depth of character,...within great performances and an emotionally powerful story. It took me on a life-journey that can never be shaken. And sure,...it doesn't have the detailed, visual canvas that a western like "ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST" obviously has (which I recently enjoyed, having the contrast of about 15 pages worth of dialog). However, if you've never went on this journey, I suggest that you do. It's simply unforgettable.
