Hana-bi is one of my favourite films.
Anyone else here love Andrei Tarkovsky? I didn't see Soderbergh's Solaris because Tarkovsky's is just so amazing and I couldn't imagine it possibly being topped.
chupones:
I love Tarkovsky as well. I do own both Tarkovsky's Solaris and Soderbergh's Solaris because they are different enough and wonderful in their own ways. Soderbergh's version is much truer to the book, while Tarkovsky's version explores deeper philosophical issues.

Dog Soldiers is NOT funny! Its a harrowing tale of Brits who fistfight with warewolves!

I loved Dog Soldiers, Sean Pertwee's character is ace:) Just saw the writer/director's next film "The Descent", IMO better (different in tone to DS). But I end up getting dragged to anything horrorish by my s/o so have developed a taste for the genre (we watched "The Beyond" again last night, Lucio 'king of the eyeball gag' Fulci's, um, masterpiece).. We're off to see the new ".. of the dead" film in August, mixed feelings...
I have seen "Andrey Rublyov" [Tarkovsky], which was fantastic (and has the longest and most involving depiction of bell-making I have seen:) )
Fans of Takeshi Kitano or fans of violence and nastiness generally might what to check out Takeshi Miike; "Koroshiya 1" ("Ichi the Killer") is pretty cool, although we've seen other stuff that was kindof drossful. "Batoru rowaiaru" (Battle Royale) is also good stuff and has Kitano in it.
The best thing I have seen in ages is Riget ("The Kingdom"), mini-series by Lars von Trier, or "À bout de souffle" ("Breathless").
& "Jeepers Creepers 2" is the worst movie ever; it displaced "The Fly 2", which had held the top spot in my head for many years previously.
TheCourtJester:
"Vincent" by Tim Burton...a short claymation-style film pre-Nightmare Before Christmas. Kinda eerie and maybe disturbing (much like Tim Burton) but it's neat to see someone's earlier work with developing styles and concepts.
"Cannibal, The Musical." Early work from one of the creators of South Park. Absolutely hilarious. And yes, it IS a musical.
"The sky is blue, and all the leaves are green
My heart's as warm as a baked potata!
I think I know exactly what I mean
when I say it's a shpadoinkle day!"
Oh..."The Graduate." Maybe it's just because of the music or because so many other movies make shameless references to it...I liked it...alot.[/u]
