The SRK Movie Fanatic Thread (REVIEWS, QUESTIONS, RANTS, STARS...ETC.) EVERYTHING!

I liked No Country but it just reminds me of Pulp Fiction minus any humor.

so, no quentin commentary on the death proof disk? hmmm…

hopefully something like this will get released in the us…

You don’t understand. I am saying it just did not need bit at the end were Jones talks to the paralyzed guy and eats breakfast.

???

ok…

HAHAHAHAHHAHA :rofl:

the movie would have no point if you didn’t have the last scene and would just finish without finishing the story

funny how QT doesn’t do a death proof commentary, but he does one on Hot Fuzz

it’s really good though, it’s just Edgar Wright/QT talking about every movie except Hot Fuzz

Have the Coens ever done an audio commentary? I know Blood Simple had one, but that was a really long joke written by them and performed by someone else

i dunno…when i saw the barebones state of the ncfom dvd, i pretty much passed up buying it. buying dvd’s without a good commentary feels so empty…especially when dealing with films of quality.

i didn’t know about the hot fuzz one…i’m going to have to check that out.

it’s on the 3 disk edition of hot fuzz

they have commentaries from real police men and another with wright/tarantino and 3 with the cast/crew

kind of overkill

looking at my collection of coen movies, none really have any special features and no commentaries at all

guess they don’t like them

I am buying that Hot Fuzz DVD right now. Another good commentary is the Cannibal the Musical one with Matt Stone and Trey Parker. They start talking about the film and then they start drinking.

here is a smallā€¦ā€œindependentā€ theater where i live, that shows really cool movies, old school…independent, limited releases…pretty cool…

they also do cool stuff like the 48 hours shoot out…sigley would probably dig this…

its a really tight theater…do you guys have something like this where you live???

oh they also have SOFAS and lazy boys in one of their screening rooms!!! its tight…

not in san diego, unfortunately. we have like one realy good theater for foriegn releases and one that shows some revival stuff. pg, the bastard, has the new beverly near him…

edit: that’s a bummer about the coens…i’d LOVE to listen to the two of them wax for a couple hours about their films…

no amount of adjectives and adverbs could properly convey the anger and fury inside me right now:

the New Beverly, the Nuart, the Aero, the Egyptian…used to have the Vine on hollywood blvd but it’s closing down, we also have a silent movie theater that just plays old silent films with live music, plus there are theaters in japantown that play Kurosawa movies n stuff.

that’s why I don’t buy dvds anymore…netflix + revival theaters = ggpo

…and that list doesnt even count the numerous art house theaters for current releases (not to mention that places like The Grove and the Arclight show those movies anyway)

yeah, like i said, pg is a bastard! not really, i just hate how close he is to many awesome theaters…

BREAKING NEWS:

MY SMALL VIDEO PRODUCTION COMPANY JUST BOUGHT OUT ANOTHER SMALL INDEPENDENT FILM COMPANY!!!

i now own the united states distribution rights to 139 crappy european trash and slasher movies for only 6k

i’m going to their office tomorrow and picking up the film stock and other stuff

now i need to find a distributor for the dvd’s after i remaster them

if i break even that would be great

^
Any notable trash films?

no idea, the titles are all in italian or i never heard of them. they’re either subtitled or dubbed in english tho

most of them don’t even have imdb entries, but they all received some sort of theatrical run somewhere in europe during the 70s and 80s. i get all the financial data with it, so i figure i’ll look for the one that did best at theaters and work from there

so something has to be good and make me money i hope

i bought them mostly cause i know the guy and he’s like a million in debt and about to declare bankruptcy, so he would of lost them anyway to some bank that would destroy them

so what i paid him for is actual the value of the film the movies are recorded on, otherwise he could get in some trouble for something

i guess you can’t firesale everything you own then declare bankruptcy

guy was making insane money during the housing boom as a realtor, cleared like 3 million in one year

bought the rights to all this shit because he was a big movie collector, then tried to get into flipping houses and yea with the market now he’s broke

you should re-dub them with new dialog…

haha, that would be pretty funny, dunno if i can do that though, there’s all these rules. like if i make dvd’s i can only have english subtitles because thats the only language i own the rights to, i’d have to ask this guy

i think it was a stupid buy and will probably do nothing with them except maybe watch a bunch on my projector, was more to help out a friend

maybe i’ll get lucky and find the holy grail and use that to flip into a blue underground type company

the guy also spent almost 100k for these rights, so i guess i got a deal
