You work too hard.

Try getting a bit more sleep. Go enjoy the calmness and beauty of nature, it has a very positive effect.

Pff, who's the doctor here?

Ok then my new diagnosys is: you sleep too much. Sleeping makes you tired! Get a healthy rythm going, by sleeping and waking early.

And yes, watching a movie while lying on the couch, at a time at which your body is used to being asleep... seems pretty obvious?

Bube · 06-17-2009, 05:27 PM

Yeah, I guess so. Never used to happen before though

And I just watched Yes Man, like it a lot, was really good. And I didn't fall asleep, lol

Ip Man

Awesome. By far one of the best movies I've seen in a while. Won best picture in the last Hong Kong Film Awards. Watch it.

Seth · 06-19-2009, 01:31 AM

Ip Man was good, however, something about it either dragged on or just didn't click fully. Maybe it was the cultural clash between Chinese and Japanese, like, through a HK perspective. They've got unsettled war issues and i just felt foreign to the rather...dreary wartime heartdrama theme.

I'd recommend if you like donnie yen. I liked flashpoint. I think it was the final fightscene that just rocked. mma

so i saw The day the Earth Stood Still. awful. expected.

also, Raising Arizona and the Lady Killers

Millennium Mambo < -- I recommend! def a slow/art wrencher. Its interesting now because it happened about 10 years ago

Why that timeline. What's the significance? ...

summertime is movie time

Miracles

Such a fun movie. Will have to find a subtitled version someday. Thanks again Ric.

Getting Flash Point now.

I watched Wild at Heart, directed by David Lynch. Not really my favorite by his, but that first scene is amazing, and so is the acting throughout.

Seth · 06-19-2009, 09:47 PM

Young Frankenstein (1974) Mel Brookes is funny. Black n white, everyone's probably already seen 'cept me.

Harakiri (1962) Masaki Kobayashi I'm liking this director more n more. Harakiri was amazing. Boring maybe in a few spots but once the plot gets laid out more it begins to tense ya up n hope! I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoyed Seven Samurai, but I felt this film paced and crescendo'd much like Yoji Yamada's 'The Twilight Samurai'. Which was good. little slow but not long.

Kagemusha (1980) Kurasawa Saw this a few weeks ago, this flick left me feeling sad at the end. It was like a yearning for the protagonist to continue the ruse. Think Ran

I saw Ji Ji (Miracles) a while ago but I can't remember any of it! i hate that

Saw Away We Go recently in theaters.

So good.

Flash Point

Great great end fight.

Angrist · 06-20-2009, 11:53 AM

Partly because of all the Japanese anime talk, I watched The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. I'll give it a 7/10.

My brother liked it a lot more than I did. I enjoyed it (especially the atmosphere when they're throwing ball), but some things should have been better.

agree

I'd say Paprika was better. TGWLTT is more of a 'watch it with a girl' type

So, I saw The Ruling Class (1974) Peter O'Toole is one of my favourite actors. Blasphemy done comically. Funny movie with a lot to say.

BreakABone · 06-20-2009, 01:07 PM

I got Kiss, Kiss, Bang Bang on Typhoid's recommendation, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, Robert Downey Jr. is pretty ace except didn't care for him too much in Charlie Bartlett.

I also saw The Wrestler at work last night, it was an enjoyable movie, but guess since a wrestling fan... the stuff he put himself through isn't really new or shocking.. if anything its just a sad reminder of so many stars. I did mostly get like a Hogan vibe from him though I guess a case could be made for many many more.
