Comedian is interesting in that it shows the grind of a comedian going out on the road and working on his material, but Seinfeld is not v. funny.

Auto Focus is great

Auto Focus has one of my favorite last lines of any film.

Maybe if people read the reviews and didn't go to the movies, we'd be thanking Ebert for saving us from them.

To his credit, I don't think you need to review Jackass because it's exactly as advertised and not really something with a plot?

Ghost Ship was a fairly mediocre bridge between the fantastic House On Haunted Hill and the terrible 13 Ghosts.

Das Experiment was pretty good though.

― модный хипстер (ShariVari), Tuesday, 21 June 2011 18:07 (fourteen years ago)

Bloody Sunday is quite good.

― Fig On A Plate Cart (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 21 June 2011 18:16 (fourteen years ago)

Bloody Sunday is great.

auto-vote for any qatsi film

― cause i'm close to the edge of glory i'm trying not to lose my hair (zachlyon), Wednesday, 22 June 2011 03:44 (fourteen years ago)

Was gonna say, middling -qatsi isn't too different from exceptionl -qatsi.

― Let me tell you something about that song. (Eazy), Wednesday, 22 June 2011 04:49 (fourteen years ago)

disagree, the first qatsi is breathtaking & the second is awful

i havent seen the last qatsi tho tbh

three separate girlfriends who as far as i know did not confer have described themselves as "fascinated" by the wire thing at the beginning of ghost ship. my type apparently.

― my Sonicare toothbrush (difficult listening hour), Wednesday, 22 June 2011 05:29 (fourteen years ago)

i am not a girl but am "fascinated" by the wire thing at the beginning of ghost ship. because it is awesome. too bad about the movie though.

― And the piano, it sounds like a carnivore (contenderizer), Wednesday, 22 June 2011 05:35 (fourteen years ago)

"separate" girlfriends, lol. (i'm slow on the uptake tonight.)

― And the piano, it sounds like a carnivore (contenderizer), Wednesday, 22 June 2011 05:36 (fourteen years ago)

yeah the wire was the best part about Ghost Ship...jeez what a snore that turned out to be

Bloody Sunday is fantastic.

― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 22 June 2011 05:45 (fourteen years ago)

maybe everyone is fascinated by this and the only coincidence here is that they found reasons to bring it up.

― my Sonicare toothbrush (difficult listening hour), Wednesday, 22 June 2011 06:00 (fourteen years ago)

never seen bloody sunday, sounds great

― And the piano, it sounds like a carnivore (contenderizer), Wednesday, 22 June 2011 06:09 (fourteen years ago)
