I havent seen "El Topo" but i LOVE 2 other Jodorovsky films:
"Santa Sangre" and "Holy Mountain", different concept each one, but both with some of the most imaginative sequences i have ever seen. Highly recommended.
Ive seen Holy Mountain, which was also fantastic. After watching it a second time I think ive come to the conclusion that El Topo is the wierdest movie ever, yet so damn good.

I saw Battle Royale 1 and 2 yesterday. Both are fucking awesome Japanese gorefests.
 
Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events
Dragged a bit towards the end, but was visually very cool and an entertaining movie overall. Definitely a great kids movie, but enough there for adults to enjoy too.

Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
Probably Wes Anderson's weakest work, but still a great flick. It could've used about 10 or 15 minutes cut out to make it pace better, but it was signature Wes Anderson quirkiness througout. Bill Murray rules, too.
 
Does Lemony Snicket's pretend it's Harry Potter or does it stand on its own? I kinda got that vibe from a few previews, but still would like to see it.
 
GARDEN STATE ... this movie ruled !!!

Was not expecting much and was blown away. You guys gotta check it out. The wierd thing is the main character looks like Dave Lombardo throughout the whole flick

Both?

The first one is phenomenal. :kickass:

The second one had a great opening 20 minutes. (It was cool how if one person died then the partner's head would blow off 20 seconds later). But then it all turned to sour shit. :ill:
 
I didn't like the opening scene for BRII, it went on too long. The only part I enjoyed was.... uhhmmmm... were there some titties in it? If so I'm sure they rocked. The original didn't need a sequel.
 
Looks like I will rent Grden State. What the fuck is it about?

I went to go rent 21 Grams and it was out. I got pissed. I then came across Hero, which was out as well. I got even more pissed and left.

It's about a guy who returns home for his mother's funeral and goes through some changes in the few days he is there.

By no means preachy, it is full of great characters and some really funny as fuck moments.
 
Its true, Battle Royale 1 is very good, but I did like 2 a good deal as well. That one gets a lot of flac from hardcore fans though ive noticed. My friend got both movies together in a dvd from 5 minutes to live.
 
ebay.com, I think I got a copy for around $5.

EDIT: I don't remember how much I paid, it was probably more than that though. No more than $15 though, I wouldn't've bought it otherwise. :loco:

EDIT EDIT: new contra'ct't'tion'
 
Garden State

Yep, this movie blew me away. The wife loved it, too. One of the better movies I've seen in a long time.
