Hehe this weekend I watched a modern classic, Billy Madison. Everyone's seen this dozens of times, but it was only my 2nd viewing. Man, this movie is so memorable almost every second. Adam Sandler's excellent taste of comedy really makes the movie humorous in every scene, but I have a minor gripe with it... I feel the writers really went out of their way to insert "disturbing" people into the movie... almost every supporting character had some sort of problem or disorder or gross line to say... the principal told adam he was horny, that old woman said "if peeing your pants is cool, then i'm miles davis!", the teacher smeared paste on her face, chris farley was..... well, a lot of things.
Oh well, Great movie from beginning to end.

I haven't seen BM in a while but I remember once when I really wanted to watch it they cut it for the president talking on ABC. I was so pissed I wrote about it in my 9th grade English journal. The same person that directed Crossroads w/ Britney directed Billy Madison, and also that woman is married to Mike D from Beastie Boyz.
Personally my fav Sandler film is Happy Gilmore. I've only seen that once though.

This weekend I rocked the Mallrats DVD. Really awesome shtuff!!
First, we have the main attraction, the movie. Classic stuff, hands down one of the funniest and most well written movies ever. I don't really need to go on about this one.
Next, we have the color commentary by Kevin Smith, Jason Lee, Jason Mewes, Ben Affleck, and 2 of the producers: Scott Mosier and one other guy. This is all really funny, even though 60% of it is Ben Affleck movie jokes. Jason Mewes rarily talks, and when he does, he doesn't really speak into the mic. They all talked about what happened while filming the movie & little things you might have missed in the movie... like TS's hair is a lot shorter in the first scene cuz they filmed it later and he got a haircut (stupid things like that). Little facts were pointed out... like the image on Brodie's tshirt is a hybrid of 3 faces of the guys who tried out for Brodies part. Anyways, even though it gets kind of boring, for the most part the commentary was really funny.
Last, we have the hour of deleted scenes... my, my, my I can't believe the stuff that they were originally going to have in the movie. It opens up with Mr. Svennings attending the governess's ball, and Brandy (or brandie) is on the roof of one of the buildings, looking through a telescope at the stars. TS comes into the scene, dressed like a british revolutionary. He accidentally fires his musket, and the governess's secret service start shooting at him, and it is all over the news that TS quint tried to assassinate the governess and shoot at government officials. The rest of the original lines in the movie made references to TS's newsbreaking news.
Next, they showed the original intro to the movie... instead of the talk about Brodie's cousin Walter and the cat stickin in his ass, Brodie goes on about his dad's first sex talk with him.
"Brodie, when I first started dating your mother, she asked me to go down on her all the time.... something she still bugs me about to this day...
One night, I thought we had it all figured out... her parents were gone and I was eating her out, and all of a sudden we hear her folks pull up in the driveway. We get dressed and pretend to be watching TV. Normally, I would have gotten away with it, but her mother was finally getting ready to meet this guy that she had heard so much about, so she insisted on kissing me.
Needless to say, a kiss and a whiff later, I was never allowed in their house again. Brodie, if you ever fall in love, always carry some handy wipes."
Hahahaha such great stuff... well, I'm out

Dange, since you were so anti Mulholland Dr. and Man Who Wasn't There I had to get them tonight. I'll be w00ting it up when they turn out to be amazing. Hehe, at least we settle for Novocaine, which I'm glad I finally got to see, even if it was as spectacular as I thought it was going to be.

[glow=green,2,300]--JASON-X--[/glow]
alright i watched jason x! Really good quality. VHS quality. Well the movie doesnt mess around jason kills about 3 people in the first 10min. Theres lots of dumb jokes that keep you shaking your head. My favorite quote from the movie would be.... "We love pre marital sex" Thats all i'll say when you see the movie and hear that quote you will die! Also there is this robot chick that turns into a super matrix fighting bot. which is lame... the whole movie is lame thats what makes it so great tho. It wouldnt recomend this movie if you wanna get scared i would recomend it to someone who like good slopy movies hahaha
total score: 7.5

[glow=blue,2,300]~ALI~[/glow]
I watched Ali tonight, and I enjoyed it except I wish they would have focused more on Ali's boxing career. The cinematography was cool, and I think they used some digi vid as well as film. Will Smith did an awesome job portraying Ali.
Oh yeah, this was my first time using glow text ... 'Tis killer!
Muholland Dr. is a crazy movie! It was my first time seeing a David Lynch film and now I realize what people have told me that his films are out there. I highly recommend this. And also the new coen bros. film is really awesome.

Nick these are some comments from the IMDB pertaining to the film Crash that I thought you would enjoy reading. b00m! ----(SPOILERS) VOW, what a movie. Some people don't like it for many reasons. The main one being, the fetish depicted (getting off/hot over a car crash) seems too unrealistic. Well, if you don't find a car crash arousing (like myself), good for us (we're normal), but in this sick world, I'm sure we can find more than one person who'll find it exiting (I mean, if some people are turned on enough over a dead body in order to screw it, like Ted Bundy and others, a car crash is not that far fetched). But the best part was the car-wreck-erotism propheth, Vaughn (Elias Koteas). He's so creppy and funny (when you realize why he drives a beat up 63 black Lincoln, you'l see what I mean) especially when he and Ballard get the car-wreck tattooes (Vaughn gets a steering wheel in the stomack and mid-chest) and do each other (Ballard does Vaughn in his car, Vaughn does Ballard WITH his car, while Ballard being inside a beat up car, and we even get to see Vaughn coming in his pants, or at least he looks like he did that, right after hitting Ballard twice). And the scene that takes the cake: Vaughn does Ballard and his wife WITH his car while driving in heavy traffic (the shots of his face clearly show him totally deranged) and finally driving off the road into his spectacular, high speed death (while sceaming, out of pleasure and insanity, longing for the supreme thrill, the one that claims the ultimate price). Enough spoilers, go see it for more. Or if what you just read put you off, then don't see it, it gets worse. ----Date: 28 January 2002 Summary: Missing the humor of Cronenberg I add this comment onto the Crash pile, but it could be added to other films. It seems people continuously ignore the humor in Cronenberg films- and CRASH is one of the funniest. While it may not be roll-in-the-aisles like Videodrome, I read the reviews and am somewhat shocked that I do not see the humor factor even mentioned. I would be the first to admit that not all Cronenberg films are humorous, I'd say DEAD RINGERS and M. Butterfly are both fairly grim tales. The DEAD ZONE is appropriately bleak, but CRASH? My lord, are you people dead??? The Spader/Unger scene in bed, while they talk rather clinically, had me laughing harder than anything I'd seen in years. I love this movie, but like VIDEODROME or the FLY, it is at least in part a comedy. Craig -----------Date: 17 January 2002 Summary: A cool car-crash movie for those who needs aren't met by THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS. This is David Cronenberg's icy, clinical examination of mechanical fetishism as an alternative to ritual, emotionally-based sex acts. It's based on an odd and provocative novel by J.G. Ballard (EMPIRE OF THE SUN) about a cult of folks who find stimulation via auto accidents and the physical damage they incur. A concept this daring could only handled by a fearless filmmaker, and Cronenberg's definitely qualified. There are no hidden or implied mainstream values here that I could see; viewers are asked to accept the characters and their oddball sexuality based purely on the film's visual glamour and the deliberate, calculated performances of the capable cast. For the intuitive viewer, the film can impart a chic veneer to the concept of self-destructive behavior and provide some unique moments of humor. For the rest of you, it'll just come off as a strange, tasteless exercise in perversity, without cause and maybe with some shocking affect. Whether or not you give CRASH a chance, there's no denying it's moral audacity. I'll applaud any director with the nerve and talent to try and make leg braces alluring, substitute flesh wounds for vaginas and explore the old aphorism about the sexiness of scars. An extremely original film, made with class, in a class by itself. Thanks David; can't wait for your next project. ---- I'm at a loss for words. "For the rest of you, it'll just come off as a strange, tasteless exercise in perversity, without cause and maybe with some shocking affect. " I'm quite sure he was talking about us. BENHURTSSOGOOD
