Is Morbius coming for Outfest

Pompoussin (admrl), Monday, 27 June 2011 00:41 (thirteen years ago) link

Not FOR it, but I may go see something (any ideas?). Weekend, donna?

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Monday, 27 June 2011 10:50 (thirteen years ago) link

yeah! i would see that. there's a couple of things i'm interested in seeing

the charo and the pity (donna rouge), Monday, 27 June 2011 14:39 (thirteen years ago) link

ok, when I'm able, why don't I buy 2 tix for that one on the 13th?

Pizzeria Mozza: sans res, can I go in and eat at the bar?

Do you guys want to drink in Hollywood, Silver Lake?

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 29 June 2011 13:49 (thirteen years ago) link

In my case (assuming we're still talking Saturday the 16th for a FAP) it'll have to be afternoon drinking, both Hollywood and Silver Lake are feasible. Will need to be back at Union Station by around 4:30 for the regular dinner with friends I do each month down here.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 29 June 2011 14:07 (thirteen years ago) link

the 13th sounds good! and i can probably drink the whole livelong day on the 16th so that's ok by me

the charo and the pity (donna rouge), Wednesday, 29 June 2011 16:32 (thirteen years ago) link

very decadent option. I'm OK w/ doing a diff night (Friday?) if matinee drinking not good for others, but really I need to finalize my other plans soon so I know.

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 29 June 2011 18:48 (thirteen years ago) link

Friday night would be out for me due to other plans, then again I am but one voice. I was talking with Cunga the other day about this and he's v. much down for Sat. afternoon as well.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 29 June 2011 18:51 (thirteen years ago) link

It should be noted that that is the weekend of Carmageddon, but considering as I seem to be the only person on here that a) lives on the west side and b) has a car, I guess that really only affects me.

Midnight Maniac (J3ff T.), Wednesday, 29 June 2011 18:55 (thirteen years ago) link

Ha, doom. (Actually wouldn't you just be able to get on the 10 and sneak over?)

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 29 June 2011 19:00 (thirteen years ago) link

i think I will hit the beach towns (S.M. and Venice, really) by myself on a weekday, unless any of you are gung ho about that.

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 29 June 2011 19:02 (thirteen years ago) link

I live on Sepulveda, Ned. A.k.a. the only real alternative to the 405. I'm not convinced I'll even be able to get out of my apartment complex.

Midnight Maniac (J3ff T.), Wednesday, 29 June 2011 19:09 (thirteen years ago) link

OK dr, I got the Weekend tix. (DGA theatre)

I also have a library book, Secret Stairs, with maps / directions for LA staircase walks. 42 of them.

"Not FOR it, but I may go see something (any ideas?)."

Yah, you should go see my friends' movies on Friday in the Platinum Showcase and on Saturday night.

Aslo you can bring print of "Aurora" that is showing in NYC this week, thanks

just checking in to say I'm still free for next weekend, so whatever you cats want to do.

Cunga, Friday, 8 July 2011 07:27 (thirteen years ago) link

cool. j0e & i are going to Brit gay film on Wed, then I'm seeing Sarah Silverman on Thurs. But if I do Sat matinee drinking, what do i do drunk at night?

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Friday, 8 July 2011 15:28 (thirteen years ago) link

continue drinking iirc

just JOE looking at a tornado (donna rouge), Friday, 8 July 2011 15:31 (thirteen years ago) link

also morbs if you don't mind a 15-min walk we can hit up gold coast after the film if you like!

just JOE looking at a tornado (donna rouge), Friday, 8 July 2011 15:34 (thirteen years ago) link

Just pace it out easily. I'll be away for a few days but will be checking in here and there as I can, so just keep the thread updated. I should be up there and free to do whatever comes up any time after 11 am or so.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 8 July 2011 15:35 (thirteen years ago) link

that sounds good joe!

looks like Thurs will be combo of Nixon Lib & Sarah Silverman, insert joke here.

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Friday, 8 July 2011 22:39 (thirteen years ago) link

Outdoor movies are not my thing, but Evil Dead 2 is showing @ Hollywood Forever Cemetery next Sat night! Will have to consider.

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Monday, 11 July 2011 05:34 (thirteen years ago) link

they just played the entire trilogy at the egyptian but i missed it ;_;

if you get a good seat those cemetery screenings are fun as hell btw - bring lots of booze and a blanket and some snacks and that is a good way to spend a saturday evening

just JOE looking at a tornado (donna rouge), Monday, 11 July 2011 05:56 (thirteen years ago) link

seat = vantage point

just JOE looking at a tornado (donna rouge), Monday, 11 July 2011 05:57 (thirteen years ago) link

I should buy a beach towel or something, then.

And the Hammer Museum has this on TUES night:

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Monday, 11 July 2011 06:48 (thirteen years ago) link

so I am here (I think that's the Capitol Records tower out the window)

And Car Wash is playing at the Hammer Museum tnite! That wd be a very disco move of me. The New Beverly has an ET/Close Encounters twinbill, but I am not spending 4+ hrs in atheater my first night.

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Monday, 11 July 2011 22:29 (thirteen years ago) link

hey, did anyone tell you to check out larry edmunds (film bookstore on hollywood, near musso and frank's)? cuz you should

just JOE looking at a tornado (donna rouge), Monday, 11 July 2011 22:39 (thirteen years ago) link

oh, yes

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Monday, 11 July 2011 22:42 (thirteen years ago) link

Good lord, I feel like you've been in California forever . . . are you ever coming back?

Virginia Plain, Monday, 11 July 2011 23:07 (thirteen years ago) link

possibly to see the Mets next Monday night

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Monday, 11 July 2011 23:10 (thirteen years ago) link

'ballad of genesis and lady jaye' at cinefamily on thurs (part of outfest iirc)

just JOE looking at a tornado (donna rouge), Monday, 11 July 2011 23:53 (thirteen years ago) link

yeah, i will be at Sarah Silverman.

well, I am on the waitlist for an Upright Citz Brigade show at 11 (will head for Silver Lake if I don't get in). Motel A/C does not work. Had a couple drinks at Spotlight. Went in Amoeba long enough to price Kovacs box.

I have yet to catch a bus in this town.

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 12 July 2011 05:11 (thirteen years ago) link

forgot whether i mentioned it on this thread, but i'm moving this weekend. we get the keys on friday but the moving truck doesn't come until monday -- we'll be carrying things over there in the interim. so, i'm happy to block out a little time to drink somewhere over the hill, but if any of y'all feel like coming up to the studio city area, even better. i know some great sushi places.

fyi morbs norm macdonald's gonna be at the silverman thing

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Surprisingly decent standup show @ UCB, esp this grizzled stoner named Colin Kinane (?) and this faux yo-yo king who did a few great slapstick bits. Was distracted by the sight of Dennis Franz in the 3rd row.

joyless shithead (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 12 July 2011 08:42 (thirteen years ago) link

'ballad of genesis and lady jaye' at cinefamily on thurs (part of outfest iirc)

Went to the premiere of this on Saturday night. Worth it if you want to see home movies of Gen and Jaye, but not the documentary it could have been

Stockhausen's Ekranoplan Quartet (Elvis Telecom), Tuesday, 12 July 2011 08:53 (thirteen years ago) link

This week in unintentionally funny FB updates:

why does everyone in california think they can charge so high for rent? we need help - anyone know of affordable living near malibu?

my big weekend celeb sighting: the ex-governator, driving a convertible through beverly hills. he didn't look happy.

avenged benfolds (get bent), Wednesday, 13 July 2011 02:30 (thirteen years ago) link

I was looking at movie tickets for this weekend at "Rave" (in Westchester I guess?) and was wondering why all the seats were empty. I probably shouldn't even try it from downtown, right?

Spencer Chow, Wednesday, 13 July 2011 07:34 (thirteen years ago) link

$4 carmageddon flights between burbank and long beach on saturday!

just JOE looking at a tornado (donna rouge), Wednesday, 13 July 2011 21:59 (thirteen years ago) link

btw I think I will be available for FAP on Saturday -- around 2? -- if ppl want to do that. Open to Hollywood, downtown, Silver Lake, I dunno.
