Miscellaneous Movie Musings - Page 300

Last night, at the urging of one of my friends, I watched the Michael Haneke 1997 movie "Funny Games". The version coming out this month appears to be a shot-for-shot remake by the same director.

It was one of the most reprehensible films I have ever seen. It made me angry - and if I were to meet Haneke, I'd demand my stolen time back from him.

I have to put this turkey up on eBay...

Hey MP did you watch Ratatouille on Blu Ray yet?

Mmmmmmm Adrian Brody in Darjeeling......

Yes, let's just dump this move crap and talk about Adrian Brody.

I understand he's prized among these parts, but I admit that I really don't find him attractive. Not even a little bit! Like Brad Pitt, I find him to be in the... rodent family?

Funny Games would be a great film to add to my "Torture By Television" collection

Darleeling is on its way to me via Netlix, but I fear not on express.

Adrian Brody.... sometimes i get it from him, sometimes not. But I always admire a person who can be very unusually attractive.

(It gives guys like me a bit of hope, heheh).

Oh, movies, hmmmm.

Princess Mononoke is da sh!t. End.

I would have to agree with you completely on that sentiment, sorry to everyone else. I think I found Brad Pitt attractive only once but he had long hair and didn't look like himself

I forgot to mention the other alcoholic movie we watched......

Pollack.

Great film about another brilliant, creative alkie who dies as result of his alcoholism.

That's quite an Alkie trio - Pollack, La Vie en Rose and The Lost Weekend.

You could make a lost weekend drinking game out of watching these films and drinking every time they do. Add Days of Wine and Roses, Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf, and Barfly for a true hangover.

He doesn't do much for me either. He's too "Ken".
