PSP was good. I used it as an MP3 player, video player, porn image viewer, and game machine. It was a smart phone before smart phones. Unfortunately for Sony, iPhone would come a couple years later and eat Sony's launch. It was very ambitious. The thing that made me want one was when my friend showed me his on the school bus and he has all those Flesnerfilms GI Joe videos loaded on it.

One of the first things I did with mine was download the Leeroy Jenkins video and play it over and over at school.

Legendary horror maestro Dario Argento (Suspiria, Opera, Deep Red) presents this stylish shocker from director Michele Soavi (The Sect, Dellamorte Dellamore, Stagefright), featuring an avalanche of nightmarish visual effects and a powerful score by Goblin and Keith Emerson.

Definitely a must-own. I don't necessarily feel that way about The Devil's Backbone or Cronos, but the transfer on their Pan's Labyrinth release is basically perfect. The color palette really pops in a way that it hadn't before in previous releases I've seen.

Should I revisit Cabin Boy? I remember thinking it sucked when it first came out on VHS, but then again I was also 13 (for some reason I thought it was older than 1994)

It pretty much rules, as does Elliot and Resnick's TV show Get a Life, which could also use a blu-ray release but I doubt that'll happen since even the DVD suffered from lack of good surviving footage. Plus the headache of re-re-licensing all of that music.

I saw that at the Arclight Hollywood front row center. It was like 11PM and I was exhausted so I just kinda gave in to the movie and I think I might've had an out of body experience.

It never stops.

The problem I had with going to see 2001 in 70mm on a head full of :catdrugs: is I can't watch that movie outside of that context any more even though I stumble out of the theater in an existential crisis about how I haven't done anything with my life every time.

somehow I ended up seeing that 70mm twice in the last two months and both times it was really really great. Although, a lifetime of watching it in my home did not prepare me for the incredible surge of popcorn chewing that rose alongside the blue Danube.

Some of my favorites:

House, mentioned above is pretty much the quintessential "crazy movie you've never heard of" that's fun to show people.

Grey Gardens is my favorite documentary ever, and it comes with the "sequel" that was constructed from alternate footage, which is as good as the original film itself.

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, World, which comes with the absurdly long 197 minute reconstructed version.

The first two are only physically available on Criterion, while Mad Mad World is available on a cheap Blu-Ray. It's only worth it for the extended version.

Pierre Etaix, Lonesome, People On Sunday, and Master of the House are some of my favorite lesser-known films.

I'm going to keep plugging the Etaix set until all of you pick it up. :colbert:

The House on Haunted Hill remake is so good up until the last 20 minutes when it turns out to be a smoke monster with titties and the ghost of Chris Kattan saves everyone.
