i can't imagine the freaks who sat with notepads recording all these mistakes. some of them are so obscure it's hard to believe.

movie mistake no 1: there's no such thing as hobbits.

Sheesh, what passes for fightin' talk these days...

The Coens had not much to do with "The Evil Dead", save for one of 'em being an assistant director or something minor like that. You must be thinking of "Crimewave", which Raimi directed but the Coens wrote.

As for de apples, I don't mind 'em.

Anyone gone to see "Mulholland Drive" yet?

havent seen mulholland drive yet but went to see blue velvet last week in the ifc. well worth checking out on the big screen if its still on

stuck beside some strange fucker who kept making funny noises and shuffling round during all the dubious parts of the film, shudder.

film better than book would have to be: bladerunner

sequel better than original: army of darkness, all the way baby!!

 

[Anne OMalley]

That was me in the cinema. I followed you home afterwards, by the way, and hid in your closet.

I'm still there now in fact. Go ahead, ring your closet.

"BV" was incredible on the big screen, though, particularly because of the widescreen 70mm ratio. 70mm is like a whole 'nother art form to 35mm. When characters are framed in 70mm there's usually so much extra space to the right or left of them, the whole meaning of the shots change. It's as if 70mm is much more suited to dealing with the relation between characters and their environment. It's a much more sympathetic medium than 35mm for that reason.

I tought everyone in "BV" looked so much more isolated in widescreen. Jeffrey becomes much sadder, Dorothy Vallens so much more tragic, the streets of Lumberton so much emptier. It never seemed so sad before on video.

(What's sad is that VHS was the only way so many us had to watch "Blue Velvet" for years. Christ.)

If Hitler came around today, saying he wanted mass genocide of anyone who's ever posted a "movie mistake" on the internet, I'd be behind him, 100%.

 

[Anne OMalley]

Superb scene, that. Truly creepy. The little guy is referred to as "The Fence" in the movie credits. Great name, great guy. What was he drinking in the pub? I bet it was something really sleazy, like Bass or Carling.

Go on the creepery!

[Anne OMalley]

I thought "Lost Highway" was underrated and "Wild At Heart" and "Fire Walk With Me" overrated.
"The Straight Story" was clever in its simplicity and "Eraserhead" was touching. "The Elephant Man" was sad and "Dune" made me shout in frustration.

"Blue Velvet" is the best though. Unfortunately all I can watch it on at the moment is VHS. Is it still on in the IFC?

"Mulholland Drive" looks like it could be fun.

When will they release "Twin Peaks" on DVD??? If so I will buy a player.

on that note i'm trying to think of any films that have been 'better' than the book...can't think of any though...ah well.

-Jaws??

-SIlence of The Lambs

Definitely Flight Of The Doves

Best sequels are

Evil Dead II
Godfather II
Friday The 13th: Part VIII - Jason Takes Manhattan

Yeah, "Dune" is a total headwrecker. It's a bit like watching someone you love drown in something they love. I'd say.
