Lithium Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spuffy78 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the best scenes in my opinion was when Banquo's ghost returned. That was pretty heavy. Also the one when he goes back to the Weird Sisters and has the trip seeing the mirros and banquos line of kings royalty or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becket Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 the simplest threads are the best. but I think Pirates of the Caribbean is fantastic, just pure fun.I just finished waching the third one. I thought it was great. Loved the bit with Keith Richards especially when he quitly sits down and strums on the guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnight Rambler Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I watched john carpenters the thing the other day. I love everything about that film, not just the monster/alien aspect, although i love that stuff, i really like the idea of isolation and cabin fever etc. The films just so atmospheric, watchin it alone in the dark is a great fukin experience. Its pretty fukin chilling and disturbing at times aswell. Also watched blue velvet a few weeks ago, fukin genious film making. Oh and i just bought one of the worst/most hillarious films ever. Has anyone ever seen the Mr T film, the toughest man in the world? He plays a guy called Bruise Brubaker lol, who is an ex vietnam vet/ex marine/illiterate chicago nightclub bouncer. I hadnt seen it in line 19 years and saw it on sale for 4 bucks the other day and thought i gotta have this. I still havent got all the way through it, its fukin so bad its good.
