Well, I don't know if you saw Eraserhead, but it's like that, though (believe it or not) less coherent, and without the vaguely sci-fi setting. It's...an experience. I'm glad I saw, and I plan to buy it. And the end credits are the most amazing, life-affirming, JOYOUS thing I think Lynch has ever done (and WAY necessary at that point).
Gimme some milk.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

move out and draw fire
Oh gods I love Mulholland Drive. Even when I handed got it figured out, it was haunting, and the DH and I must have stayed up for 6 hours after working out what is was.
Of course, I'm a big old non-linearity sucker too.
I spent part of today mocking a co-worker's B'more accent (Heh, yuh wuhnt suhm wuddeh?), affectionately of course, so I'm kind of glad Travolta tries one.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Eraserhead
As far as I'm concerned: The only good thing that ever came out of this flick is that I know I can always freak my brother out with poultry (especially a nice cornish game hen) if I wiggle it a bit and make a squeaky noise.

I really liked Stardust. I would use the words "unabashedly fantastical" to describe it. That's my quote! Use it in the ads!
Of course, I told a friend of mine about it, and when she heard about all the things they changed, she was fuming. So what do I know.

The Wolverine movie gets a director and it's Gavin Hood who won the 2005 foreign language Oscar Tsotsi.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Can we have a secondary pool for how many times Logan "dies" and then revives due to his power?

I really enjoyed Stardust also. And, like PC, I had not read the book, so that is based purely on the flick.
Juliana, the costuming thing we noticed does carry through on all the brothers. Now I want to see it again so I can look for other cool details.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
