Dang, this is so perfect, just bought it yesterday on my own volition. (Blue Velvet that is).

I am also excited about this, I've heard he plans to get H.R. Giger back on board as well so I'm expecting a visually disturbing film. Prequel, space-jockeys, bioweapons, I'm definitely there.

Yeah, Up was probably the most recent. I saw it three times and that opening sequence got a fair number of tears out of me each time. That film's score is fantastic.

Yeah, its a depressing trend. That said, I don't usually dig into special features unless I really like the movie. For example, the three disc version of Hot Fuzz is packed with awesome stuff and David Fincher tends to put a lot of sweet sweet goodies on his films. But yeah, DVDs with no feautres are kind of depressing.

Shawshank Redemption. Decent prison flick, yet its rated as number 1 on imdb? Baffled every time I think about it.

Yes, also Simpsons appearance for me. Pretty sure its all I've seen him in.

Yeah, John C. Reilly is pretty awesome in general, and he's in fine form here. Hey, watch Walk Hard if you haven't, one of the most overlooked films of 2007.  
 
EDIT: Initially thought these were just compilations of Boogie Nights scenes. This is good stuff, was this on the bonus features disc? Never dug through much of that.

"Say hello to my little friend!" annoys me, largely because that movie isn't very good and yet it seems to have caught on. Granted, don't hear it often but I cringe when I do.

Okay, you're right its a pretty good movie but I credit that to Brendan Gleeson, his was certainly the best performance in the film and made it linger in my memory longer than it would have without him.

So on the latest episode of Behind the Screened Door they discussed Tarsem, the director of The Cell and The Fall. I have seen both of these films and while I agree to some extent that he relies way to much on visuals and isn't a very good storyteller, I still want him to continue making movies. Some of the imagery in his films is truly extraordinary, to the point where I stopped caring about the story and just let my eyes take in the visual feast on display. That said, only seen each of them once so they may well become tiresome on second viewing. I honestly feel much the same way about Terry Gilliam. He makes visually interesting movies with paper-thin stories 90% of the time, yet everyone seems to love him. 
 
Anyway, that is all. Wondering how the rest of the people here at Screened feel about him. Should he continue directing feature films? Should he just become an art designer? Ever heard of him?

" I hated that. :(   They never explained the smoke monster, or the numbers properly. The only explanation was "magic".  The ending was so obvious, I was hoping for one last good twist.  (Was the ending trying to imply that none of this happened, and that Jack had died in the crash?) "

Well they did explain the numbers - they represent the candidates. They were on the wall of the cave that was in teh face of the cliff that MIB/Locke showed Sawyer."

I'm actually going to go with the relatively recent Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. When I first saw it I was kind of indifferent towards it, but I've seen it maybe three times since then and it grows on me more and more every time. John C. Reilly is amazing in the film, as is most of the supporting cast, and it really just nails all the stupid cliches that show up in biopics, especially musical bioics such as Ray, Walk the Line and Great Balls of Fire! Really excellent stuff, definitely worth checking out. See the Unrated cut if you can, its got a good twenty minutes of solid material in it.

Watch 3 seasons of MASH just to familiarize myself with the show. Amounted to nothing as well. GOOD TIMES!

I don't know if you really need to, but it's alright. Some classic bits in there. Question, why does everyone hate Sgt. Bilko? That's some quality Steve Martin right there yet it's hardly ever talked about.

Oh, thought this would be a "That this looks like garbage" situation. Pretty sure everyone is saying it looks amazing, and I largely agree but I always get nervous when hype is involved. Still, one of my favorite actors, one of my favorite actresses and an extremely talented director working together is cause for excitement.

Just watched season 1 for the first time this past week and was absolutely mesmerized. Been a fan of Lynch's films for some time, don't know why it took so long to finally check this out. But dang, best seven hours of television I've seen in an exceedingly long time.

Just submitted a review for Splice to my editor and I'm not entirely happy with it. I didn't hate it, but I made it sound like I rather liked it, which isn't accurate either. Didn't want to use the word "meh" though.

Hmm, I guess I agree with Tyler Durden that their chemistry needs some work but I definitely approve of the idea. Really though, you could put Alex Navarro, Ryan Davis and Jeff Gerstmann in a room tomorrow and they could do a pretty awesome commentary on Cobra. I'd buy that.

Hmm, don't know. Seen it four times but not in quite a while, but enjoyed it every time I saw it. And uh...3 times in one weekend. Just saying.

Oh make no mistake, I really enjoy Hard Candy, I just don't find it that trying anymore. Movie's I'm scared to see, like Irreversible and Cannibal Holocaust, were all I was expecting to see here but I guess there are only so many of those.
