yeah well, YOUR country is full of knights playing chess with big pale guys in black robes?? wtf is that about?

 

[minxnim]

i think the french and the germans are doing a good job of emulating our right wing conservatives already. except they don't have silly southern accents.

 

[xfer]

yeah, no matter how silly the French get, they will never surpass our South.

I had to watch the Seventh Seal for a class a few weeks back...strangely amusing.

i'm so disappointed that no one pointed out my pretentiousness here! i was trying to see how high i could take it.

It really is a quality flick. Bergman is among the best thing the Swedes have ever produced. just under THE HIVES.

 

[The Dope]

just under THE HIVES.

And Zander, right? After all, he is a picture-posting god.

despite some weaknesses, i loved the reaction the (big) crowd gave this the first time around... mostly gasps or agreement, but a few shouted-at-the-screen comments too.

then, i wound up seeing it a second time in a theater with about 10 other people, and 2-3 walked out toward the end. presumably in disgust. i can't recall ever seeing that much (diverse) reaction to a film in my life, besides JACKASS, but... well...

BFM pointed out some angles that were necessary, but i still think Michael Moore is a bit cheesified on some stuff. the parting shots at the Heston compound were wretchy.

i forget, did he ever mention anything about population scale in relation to the gun statistics?

Michael Moore, sporting a Northwestern Wildcats hat!
I saw him on Space Ghost CtC circa '97 wearing said hat as well.
