Criterion/IFC mashup: The First Ten!

and I'm pretty sure I'm voting Summer Hours but not necessarily

oh that was supposed to just be "Grand Illusion" dunno where "the" came from

A Christmas Tale and Summer Hours are neck and neck for me.

Haven't seen Still Walking or Secret of the Grain, but Antichrist and Everlasting Moments are the only ones of these I don't like.

I've only seen X-Mas Tale (which I like lots), but I've got a netflix of Fish Tank over in the stack.

TBPH, I'm more excited about some of the IFC stuff in the pipeline (Carlos, the Errol Morris stuff, and yes, Tiny Furniture) than this initial batch.

report back after you've seen the rest of these and Tiny Furniture

I've seen Tiny Furniture...and Carlos...and Gates of Heaven.

...and Certified Copy's playing here next month, but we all know what happened there...

oh that little trifle, wake me when Kiarostami films something worthy of his Importance

garbage

um tell that to Peter Becker

Gukbe if it's between Xmas Tale and Summer hours definitely check out Still Walking and SotG immediately. A couple more diamonds in the Modern Family Ties genre.

btwn everlasting moments and fish tank for me tho ive only seen 6/10

Still Walking is great.

i should watch that

Seen 8 of these. Tempted to vote McQueen.

Could a Mod save this thread from oblivion by correctly spelling "Criterion" for me?

voted gommorah

tbh these all stuck with me except for Che, which seemed pretty expensive for a classroom video on historical military tactics.

gamorrah freakin owns

gomorrah... whatever!!!

I still haven't watched that damn Fish Tank dvd.

have seen all of these (except Antichrist, of course), and it's Hunger, easily.

'of course'

the Desplechin

All the ones I've seen above are better than Army of Shadows, The Rock, Dodeskaden, An Angel at My Table, Chasing Amy, Koko: A Talking Gorilla, Life of Brian, Benjamin Button, et al.

better than The Rock? smh

haha srsly the rock owns so hard

have seen all of these (except Antichrist, of course), and it's Hunger, easily.

ive seen all of these except secrets of the grain.

i really like 'a christmas tale' a lot & have probably posted so all over ilx but 'summer hours' has really grown on me

h8 hunger

i don't believe there are more than, like, 20 movies ever that are better than 'an angel at my table.'

better than Life of Brian

ever the komedy konoisseur!

by 'et al,' does eric mean that the polled films are better than anything currently on criterion?

no he just means Armageddon, The Mikado, A Canterbury Tale, Life During Wartime, Salo et al.

Morbius is wrong about Hunger being easily better than Summer Hours but I would forgive him if someone would film him MST3K style watching Antichrist.

Okay, Fish Tank was really good.

i watched still walking & liked it. would put it ahead of prob che, hunger, antichrist

check out red road if you've not seen it, handjobs 4 a sport

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

I've only seen Che, but I just discovered that all of these are available on Netflix instant, so I guess I have some watching to do.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Sure, why not.
