8) Dead Man
12) Barfly ?
And I didn't even google any of them :-)
What are you doing Saturday mid-day-ish?
Doh!!!
on 2005-01-14 04:17 pm (UTC)Wanna screen my entry and just pick one of them to use?
sowwy....
Re: Doh!!!
on 2005-01-14 04:43 pm (UTC)#1-This was my first of what i'd call the nextgen of the asian chop flicks- beautiful camera work, comic book choregraphy, and that one line goes through my head whenever I watch Republicans on TV
#4- My second favorite horror film EVER. John Carpenter took a great vintage 50's scifi flick and turned it into a kind of Lovecraftian horror right out of the "Color out of time" or "mountains of Madness"
#8- Simply the most beautiful of Jarmusch's films. It has a fabulous cast (what ever film can boast both Iggy Pop & Robert Mitchum!)
#12-Barfly- Charles Bukowski wrote the screenplay - what else am I gonna say?
Nice shooting Kitten.
Re: Doh!!!
on 2005-01-14 05:02 pm (UTC)I really should own it. When I worked at Mindspring doing collections and people would get bitchy at me I often retorted with, "Your insults mean nothing to me. I have mystic king fu!"
After that people were just confused and paid me. :-)

i still giggle at a canadian playing an american soldier gone rogue-ish,
but oddball rocks :-D
"Think positive thoughts Moriaty"
on 2005-01-14 06:38 pm (UTC)My all time favorite WW2 movie.
From the strange psychedellic opening song, the dynamic between Oddball & Big Joe, Clint Eastwood being...well Clint Eastwood I guess and the same "Fuck you to the man" vibe that Joseph Heller captured in "Catch 22"(great,great book- mediocre movie)- very good catwalk.
Incidentally Oddball was a role model for me in my brief time employed by Uncle Sam.
"No matter where you go- there you are"
on 2005-01-14 04:46 pm (UTC)Yep one of my all time favorite guilty pleasures. To this day I still hope to see the much promised "Buckaroo Bonzai vs the World Crime Syndicate" promised at the end of the credits.

on 2005-01-16 10:05 am (UTC)This is a great come back from the club drunk movie. Secretly in my stumbling bliss I see myself as "Catcher
Block" smirking in my smoking jacket while the hi-fi plays bebop in my head.

on 2005-01-16 06:01 am (UTC)6. Get Carter
10. Young Guns
Bang-bang-bang
on 2005-01-16 10:01 am (UTC)"Dawn of the Dead" - what's not to love? Zombies, Swat teams, bikers, big rig truck driving, anarchy in the mall, hari Krishna zombies for chrissakes and still one of my all time favorite endings to any movie.
"Get Carter" - A very young and very naked Michael Caine packing a 12 gauge shotgun marches some limey gangster mook right out the front door and straight down the street - all in broad daylight mind you!
"Young Guns" Is on this list for sheer nostalgia. I don't know ... it was kind of my Breakfast Club if that makes any sense. "Regulators...!"
Well once again nice shooting rubberdux.

on 2005-01-16 08:55 pm (UTC)Cained again with a Stamp of approval
on 2005-01-16 11:25 pm (UTC)fleeing in terror and he's bellowing "Tell 'em I'm
Fahkin' coming!" I understand that this was a sequel to a movie made in the late 60's called
"Poor Cow" but I haven't been able to find it.
Though I love me some early "Alfie" era Michael Caine I have no doubt that he'd have to "Kneel before Zod" if Mr.Stamp were so inclined to lay the pimp hand down.
