Do you mean the British one or the Hollywood one? Or both? I saw the British one and its was great-tacular, but I didn't see the Hollywood one.

... They're technically BOTH british ones. Most of the staff for the new one was british after all. Only "Hollywood" ties it had was the studio that released it. And saying that makes it hollywood would mean Spirited Away is a hollywood movie. ;)

 

^ Just because I don't find mind-numbingly stupid "comedies" entertaining doesn't mean I "have the sense of humour of a tumour".

I was more commenting on your posts practically all across the board, not so much just the comment on the movie.

 

However, just because I think the movie sucks doesn't mean it actually does. Since when does anybody on your planet give a flying fu.... squirell about the opinions of others? I think it sucks, but that doesn't mean you have to think it sucks.

You presented it as fact, so I had to correct you.

 

You like it, I don't. It's that simple.

Who said I like it?

Kung Pow is the absloute stupidist movies ever to be made.

 

No, that would be Napoleon Dynamite. Total waste of time, money, and film!

 

Oh, and Hitchhikers' was not a bad movie.....because is wasn't made in Britain! j/k :D

 

@ ChaiNz.....That reminds me of another one (based on colors)...Solient Green. Really wierd!

A Clockwork Orange

 

Ooo you beat me to it. Seriouly this is one of the "movie night" classics.

 

Labyrinth with David Bowie is pretty strange

 

That movie is awesome! How can you not love Bowie?

 

Some thing strange............ hey remeber Liquid television? Not a movie but man that was one strange show. I guess we have that to thank for the strangeness that is Aeon Flux. They released that as a dvd set eventually....so its kinda related....

 

I always loved it but I also thoulght Bladerunner was a lil on the strange side.

Im glad someone mentioned David Lynch.... he's been called "Jiimy Stewart from Mars" because he's a down to earth guy with a weird a$$ imagination.... I'd like to submit his whole filmography - in particular

 

*Eraserhead

*The Elephant Man

*Blue Velvet

*Twin Peaks/Fire Walk With Me

*Wild at Heart

*Lost Highway

 

other weird but wonderful films

 

"The Cook, The Thief, His Wife & her Lover" directed by Peter Greenaway

"Drowning by Numbers" by Peter Greenway

 

yes, Hitchhikers would seem weird to those who arent familiar with the book or old series... its been over 20 years for me so Im too familiar with it to think it weird :)

 

All these films come highly recommended when youre in the mood for something 'different' :)

O, I forgot to say how bad "Forbidden Planet" was. It was really bad.

:eyeraise: I hate to break it to you, but for it's time it was "the" sci-fi film... I think the word you might need to replace 'bad' with in your post might be "dated", but Forbidden Planet is far from bad. It is the one of the most influencial movies in the annals of sci-fi.

 

Praise be Stanley Kubrick :worship:

Word! ;)

I thought it was dumb even for it's time, but that's just my opinion. I thought the part where the guy says "Monster, John! Monsters.... from the Id! was really cheesy.
