Re: Favorite movie marathons that you have attended?

My favorite is probably the film noir marathon at the Harvard Film Archive about two months ago. They showed The Big Combo, Force of Evil, The Scarf, Sudden Fear, The Naked City, Split Second, and...

Re: Gravity (Cuarón, 2013) — The Reviews Thread

Gravity is the only film I've seen that I thought made good use of 3D. The spatial design in every other 3D film I've seen reminds me of shoebox dioramas; all the planes on the y-axis appear flat and...

Re: When you watch a foreign movie, do you prefer subtitles or dubbing?

Not a foreign film, I know, but there's just something right about watching Disney's Mulan with the Mandarin audio track and English subtitles on.

For everything else, I'd rather import a DVD than...

Re: Go West, Young Sheep...Westerns sheep game

Thanks! I just submitted my answers.

I think it's been years since I last participated in one of these. Back then, we didn't have these "Slam Dunks" so I really hope I'm using them correctly.

Re: Your Oscar Predictions (2013 Edition)

Editing and Original Screenplay are the categories I am most uncertain about, and to a lesser degree, Directing and Makeup/Hairstyling.

Re: Bond 22 film set $99.99 Deal of Day Amazon 11/24

I just traded in all four of my Ultimate 007 DVD sets, as well as five 007 BDs, to Amazon for about $65. I probably could have gotten more if I sold them through other venues, but Amazon trade-in is...

Re: Is the Tree of Life one of the ten best films ever made like Ebert says?

It doesn't; the reason people have the impression you have is because all the truly, undeniably bad films in cinematic history have essentially been forgotten. Scholars rarely write about bad films,...

Re: [Yahoo News] Windows 8 dropping the ability to play DVDs

MS is unbundling Windows Media Center from Windows 8. If you purchase the WMC add-on, then you'll get native DVD playback.

This seems to make sense business-wise, as I know very few people who...

Re: The Clock (Marclay, 2010) — A 24-hour movie

I've seen around 5 hours of The Clock over several visits, including approximately 3:30AM-5:30AM. I don't want to spoil anything, but I think the editing during this period is particularly creative...

re: Zhang Yimou's The Flowers of War (Late 2011) -- Starring Christian Bale

I'm not sure where this sentiment is coming from. It's only been very recently that the Chinese government has welcomed Zhang Yimou with open arms.

Many of Zhang's early films weren't released in...

Re: "Classic" Movies You've Never Seen (And Don't Want To)

I'm not sure it's different. "Low interest" doesn't explain why the interest is low, so you could just as well say that Draven and whoopdido have a "low interest" in older films.

As with any form...

Re: James Bond 007: Goldeneye for the Wii (Nov 2, 2010)

I was surprised to find the $20 gift certificate in my E-mail a few days ago. I haven't purchased anything from Best Buy in months - definitely buying something from them now.

re: Criterion Sale? Ever Again? (NOW ACTIVE/ALIVE AT B&N)

Criterion tweeted two hours ago that the B&N sale has started already, but it links to the previous 50% off sale page from last year, and none of the prices reflect the sale yet.

Re: So...what does your "Top 10 of this Decade List" look like?

I don't think there's such a thing as a "proper decade" because you're under the assumption that we should start counting from 1AD, which is in and of itself an arbitrary and meaningless starting...
