Re: Movies: New Ideas Welcome II Prequel Reboot

The guy who plays Cooper (the best friend) is fantastic in the movie because he plays this sentiment to a tee, it's all snark and wit from him without any sense of seriousness and it's absolutely beautiful.

That guy was also in The Pacific and Justified. Almost unrecognizable in a serious role, without that long hair and smirking grin.

Eurotrip is one of, if not the, greatest bad movie of all time, and I use the term bad in a totally affectionate way. Not trying to be anything, dumb, stupid, low brow, trashy, you know what I mean. Not good vs bad 'bad', just a movie that knows it's not high art, and isn't trying to be. The only other film that comes close to me is Ski School, although The Grind is right up there as well.

I caught part of it the other day on FX, or FXX one of those channels, and it's edited so badly. When the kid takes his camera in to be cleaned, and starts making out with the chick in the alley, while Cooper is at the bondage place, and Lucy Lawless calls in the two big beefy dudes, they cut to commercial right there, and then it comes back with them meeting up at the bus stop the next day.

Scottie asks Cooper how his night was: "Don't ask", and then the other kid shows up, all smiles, "I got robbed, it was awesome!!!" but you never saw any of it, and anyone who had never seen the movie before wouldn't have a clue what happened, would just be like .

Eurotrip.

I only even heard about it because of the video for "Scotty Doesn't Know." I did not expect anything.

It is ridiculously, stupidly funny.

The Disappointments Room:

A troubled architect moves her family to a manor in the countryside. Finds a locked room that is more than what it seems.

Cliched blah horror movie, although reading the imdb stuff on it, it could have been really good, but financial troubles made them cut a bunch of stuff from the movie, including some parts that would explain the gaps in the finished product. As it stands....meh. Wouldn't bother.

Night of the Lepus is legendary. It has the production values of a 'Battlestar Gallactica: TOS' episode. They somehow talked Janet Leigh into it. And DeForrest Kelly during presumably a low point in his career and self image.

Netflix doesn't currently have it, I do have it tagged as a "Save." I'd rather not use youtube to view it, but if I must....

There was a (bad) movie recommended to me by a bartender this weekend....Night Of The Lupes? Something like that. Gigantic rabbits take over a farm, along those lines. The discussion STARTED with "Barbarella" and went downhill from there.

Atomic Blonde. Hitchcockian Spy Thriller. I loved it. My friend did not. Charlize is so awesome.

Figure out the Macguffin. Great ending.

IINM it's public domain streaming on the net. Look for The Devil Rides Out. Very nice Brit horror similar to "Casting the Runes" (c.f. Night of the Demon).

No, not that one, but now I am intrigued.
