Exactly ... but I am afraid of this phenomenon isnt only in the U.S.  hmm

Funny Games U.S. : Same Director and Writer. First I didnt want to see the new Version because the Original tells everything well done imo. Picking up the DVD for 4,50 Euro I thought : "Okay, Why Not?  Result: The new movie wasnt gripping me again like the Original release before.  111 Minutes waste of Time and 4,50 Euro lost. Save the Originals ...

anti christ is meant to be alright. regular von triers but decent.

I am a MASSIVE zombie fan so I cant wait to see it.

Re: What movies/tv shows are you robots watching?!

dead snow is ok nothing special beside the nazi-zombie issue which is great
some how zombies movies are usually hilarious and turning into a comedy at some point.

welcome back

I kind of liked Limits Of Controll but:
it's an action movie with no action, kind of thing that i would have thought was suppacool mid 80's.
doesn't really go anywere, lots of the stuff I recken Jarmush salutes  other movies/directors and even other forms of art(cubism - painting) and off course the whole thing is based on the William S Burroughs essay "nothing is true - everything is permited" in itself based on last words of the Persian, sect order of the Hashashins, leader Hasan Sabbah blah blah
off course there are references to Jarmusch's own films (double epresso - Coffe&cigarettes,the assasin - Ghost Dog, Bill Murray whom he worked with in Broken Flowers - here made too look like Dick Chenney etc etc)
but it gets to the point where there so much to "think about" and fuck all in the way of a story or good ol fashion action, that you just don't walk out feeling satisfied, or maybe it's just me.

thanx man, glad to be back smile
thanx for the thorough review, i couldnt've done it like that, im way too laconic...so sounds like it would be ok for a torrent grab big_smile

on another hand :

are you guys familiar with Bouli Lanners?
Belgian actor, the guy is a riot smile
I mentioned Louise-Michel a bit up (it maybe hard to find, it is on Karagarga), if you like weird and black humor, this is for you...

Another movie these guys directed is Aaltra (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0405629) - a totally insane hitchhiking trip to Finland of 2 annoying dudes in wheelchairs who want to sue a tractor company. Cameo by Aki Kaurismaki...
here is a scene where Bouli plays a Finnish karaoke singer :

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myg9Hjq5zAI[/youtube]


and another one they did is Avida - this one is just plain surrealistic, if you dig Holy Mountain, you'll dig this
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0478558

Bouli also directed a coupla flicks:

Eldorado (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1176954) - at one point involving an old nudist that has a chair saying "Alain Delon" (which apparently Bouli stole from Delon at a previous movie they were in together cuz Delon was apparently a total asshole....:) )

and Ultranova (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0438531)

dead snow is a cracker, the last 30 minutes. look out for the zombie with a white shellsuit jacket on meschi, looks a bit like a ned, or Joel.

For all conspiracy fans: Based on true events caused by the army under the so called code-name "MK-Ultra" in 1953.  Main goal was to explore how to control thoughts from naive test-persons. Havent heard any bad things about that movie, so I hope our tea-time-movie will be not so disappointing ....
