Yeah, this looks pilfered from so many other crappy sources and…gross.
And his ‘unforgettable face’ looks pretty drone-ish, to me.
The original film (which I admit, I haven’t ever seen) at least had that sweet Ivan Albright painting! Actual art!
And now… it’s not even a painting. Or it’s a Hogwarts moving painting.
*sigh* Oscar Wilde gets beaten with the shit stick by Hollywood more than most, I must say.
On your black tarp couch and chairs?
Also, do I have to down vote myself, because this actually made me hungry?
Whoa whoa! Major hit on Alex and Simon…
Well… Ugh. This child is the anti-cute, for me. Manicured, boxy-banged bob… Who T shirt…. Girl guitar…. Check, check, and check. I just get the feeling like he’s some hipster parents project. It smacks of preplanned adult-directed ‘cute propaganda’.
Also this song’s kind of dark for a baby voice to shakily sing through–which I realize was purposeful.
Eh.
“Hack Basement Deodorant” is something I would buy, actually.
Mein gott…
There is no denying the man knows how to paint a screen with lush vs. muted colors to a considerable scale. I just miss the days when he wrote his OWN screenplays. Beetlejuice/Edward/Nightmare. Or with Ed Wood and Frankenweinie, he channeled other cinematic/surrealist yet heart-felt zones and scooped a few things out of the collective conscious. Things that we’d long dismissed.
If you’re going to remake Alice (or re-imagine, or tell a different collection of her stories), best to do it with out retrodding ground. It makes me sad, because I truly like him and his crazy story in Hollywood. Ah well.
One can’ o chicken spine for m’lady.
That’s my favorite part. The words, “Noq I’ll just cut out his back” sound best said as casually as possible.
“Come on, Baby Geniuses. You’re never going to take down Babyco if you don’t OPEN YOUR EYES.”
Yes! Baby Geniuses ref–never forget!
No no no no NO.
*hoo*
Ok. I can see why someone might like elements (ELEMENTS.) of “Rachel Getting Married”, but in no way was it a quality film. Playing devil’s advocate, for the few positives you might say, “Nice costumes, occasionally.” “The film, overally, LOOKS very pretty. Nice lighting.” “Anne Hathaway, way to stretch your acting limbs slightly, despite some maudlin circumstances and lines!”
That’s about all I can think of that wasn’t bone-crushing bad.
But (SPOILER?) a movie that proudly features a dishwasher loading contest does not a ‘great’ film make.
A horrible soundtrack featuring nerve wrackingly-subpar musicianship that continues AND CONTINUES to continue and never shuts up throughout said film isn’t a positive. Not including the constant “RACHEL/SYDNEY” chanting that permeated and destroyed any goodwill momentum throughout.
I could go on and on, and I’m sure that is what Gabe will do.
It is, friends, a horrific movie masking itself as a good one. And it got nominated for an Oscar. Isn’t that enough? Do we all need to settle?
I personally nominated “Rachel” and I’m sure there are others out there who also did. I refuse to be alone on this one!
So you can keep your precious, whiney “Rachel”. I don’t care how many verbal darts are hurled my way. IT’S ALREADY NOMINATED–BOOM!
YAYYAYAYAYAYAY!!
I love when hometowns are referenced. As in, that theater marquee is from the Guide 45 in Seattle, which always has pun-tastic signage.
I live right near it and see movies there. Which warrants a post about it.
YES!!!
Oh and I might see Bruno at some point.
That was the first thing I thought of too!
And I’m at work with zero sound. But awesome reference. 
One of the most arresting movies ever put to OCD inspired Phillip Glass.
DAMN him. (With arpeggiated love.)
I don’t post too often, but I did want to share in the Lindsay-missing sentiments.
I found Videogum just a few months ago, and since then, I quote your website almost every day!
Thanks to Lindsay, I saw the trailers for “The 10 Commandments and the Bike King”, “Last Season”, and I can’t remember if it was she or Gabe that brought up “The Room”, but I DON’T CARE!
I liked her ways an words and its a damn (and downright STUPID) shame to have her leave.
Maybe with so much outpouring, the powers that be will realize that she needs to return?
Because as much as I love Gabe, having another, different voice–HER voice–rounded out the site in a really special way.
Lady Lauren Locksmith?
His guitar fills are nearly identical too. As are his weirdly staccato/smoker’s rasp vocals.
Just….wow. One can only pray these achieve greater circulation. By realizing his (potential) dreams of fame–the kind of 24/7, intense scrutiny that involves heavy security and neighborhood policing–we might then know of his exact whereabouts. Which is helpful for running screaming in the opposite direction. Because I can’t handle Dave being my secret neighbor. No.
Great progression on this post though.
You from Salt Lake Godsauce?
Weird Q, I knowl.
Just wondering.
