sorry, dont see the amazingness. its just...i dunno, certainly not "one of the most powerful pieces of cinema i've ever seen" far from it. theres almost no artists left in the mainstream medium.

'Whatever a group is it was the chemical mixture of those four people that makes a group work. That's a lesson everyone should learn, "Don't mess with it!" If it works just let it... Do whatever you have to do to bring it forward but don't mess with it. And like, we learned that... bitterly.'

More than usual, actually. 2007 was a banner year.

That was Big Yellow Taxi by Joni Mitchell, a song in which Joni complains they 'Paved paradise to put up a parking lot', a measure which actually would have alleviated traffic congestion on the outskirts of paradise, something which Joni singularly fails to point out, perhaps because it doesn't quite fit in with her blinkered view of the world. Nevertheless, nice song.

the simplest threads are the best.

too many to mention. fear and lothing in las vegas is fuckin ace. generally i prefer older films before CGI came and ruined everything. but I think Pirates of the Caribbean is fantastic, just pure fun.

layer cake kicks ass as it is more realistic that Guy Richies stuff etc. but the classics will always be there - ghostbusters, indiana jones, alien, back to the future, the burbs, full monty, die hard, smokey and the bandit, dragnet, terminators, bourne identity/supremecy/ultimatum, crow, memento,28 days later.

loads of stuff.

First Matrix was good and that's pushing it.

Back To The Future the first one was a classic.

The two in bold in are great.

Going by your avatar I see you're a Kubrick fan have you seen any of his other movies?

The last movie I watched with The Boondocks Saints classic movie.

Yeah, man, so far I've seen Dr. Strangelove, The Shining, 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange and Full Metal Jacket, but I feel I need to check out his earlier stuff. Any recommendations?

The Killing and Paths of Glory are pretty good.

You've seen his later classic but avoid Eyes Wide Shut.

It was shame he died before he could put his magic into the film.

Appetite recommend probably his best two early films.

I haven't seen Sparactus but Lolita was dreadful.
