The extended cut of Southland Tales explains a whole lot more than it really needs to. It's still pretty radical, though.

Just like Donnie Dario's director's cut. It really doesn't help you give Richard Kelly the benefit of the doubt. I love Donnie Darko and Southland Tales but Kelly really gets in the way of himself sometimes and has no idea what makes his movies good.

Also The Neverending Story is a movie thats p. pretty but definitely overuses the wonder of obvious greenscreening to a level I can't honestly remember in another movie

Yo Dickeye, since you were posting about The Mountain Goats a few pages ago, you should read John Darnielle's novel Wolf in White Van. It centers on an esoteric play-by-mail RPG and violent crime so it's probably something you'd enjoy

I did not expect to like Everybody's Gone To The Rapture nearly as much as I ended up liking it. It is like one of the most annoying ways I can think if to present a story but I still found the game to be really beautiful and the story dragged me in so :shrug:

Have Italian horror filmmakers spent the last 4+ decades in some kind of "who can make the least loving sense" competition?

Because I think The Church is winning.

This is the problem I've always had with Italian horror. And any time I've ever brought it up I just get hit with a barrage of "It's supposed to be dream like!", except I've never seen an Italian horror film I would describe as such. It's more like a bunch of arbitrary and half baked ideas thrown together for 90 minutes where occasionally something looks kind of cool. I've never understood the appeal.

I don't have a ton of first-hand knowledge of this, but I have heard that a lot of old Italian horror films were butchered in editing when they were brought over to America. The films were too long, so the editors just chopped out a bunch of scenes, sometimes breaking the logic of the movie.

We'll have to agree to disagree on that one. I like a few things in The Giver, the set design, Jeff Bridges' performance, and the combination of black-and-white and colour cinematography, but the rest of the film did nothing for me. Maze Runner at least managed to build some tension, and I thought the youth performances were better overall.

Then again, maybe my opinion is clouded by my initial expectations. Maze Runner is a decent adaptation of a mediocre book, so I was pleasantly surprised. The Giver is a decent adaptation of a great book, so I can't help but compare it unfavourably to the source material.

Watching a lot of giallo over the past couple of years, the purported use of nonsequiturs is way, way overstated. The whole genre is based on formulaic potboilers, which use cryptic symbols and unexplained events about as frequently as American style thriller novels.

Perhaps it's in the nature of television. Just waves in space.
I'm really happy a 12 year old who wants to vote for Ted Cruz is getting national coverage because of his opinions on the president. We seriously live in a day and age where a 12 year old with a good vocabulary spouting nonsense is getting news coverage.
My favorite part is conservatives hoping to it because the kid is black and saying bad things about Black Lives Matter and gay people, mostly because they'd be demonizing him if he said the opposite.

It seems like every election cycle, Fox News touts some whiz kid who's a one-man conservative think tank, without realizing the subtext of having a child spout your ideology.

Popular culture has passed you by.
Watched Jee-woon Kim's A bittersweet Life and liked it a lot. It's not as intense of viciously unpleasant as I Saw the Devil but still a pretty gorgeous action drama, and Byung-hun Lee is a ridiculously handsome man. I'm kind of torn on Jee-woon Kim's body of work because The Quiet Family and A Tale of Two Sisters didn't impress me all that much, but I very much liked the aforementioned movies and even The Last Stand. Gotta track down The Good, The Bad, The Weird.
