Easy Diff posted:Not really in the mood for anything in particular, and my Amazon Prime is expiring in a week so I wanna watch a bunch of stuff. What should I do next: I'd move We Need to Talk About Kevin way up there. I've had a hard time deciding over the years whether I like or hate Body Double. After just rewatching I think "like". The climactic scene with the dream sequence of the movie scene being filmed spliced in with the "real" action is a real nice payoff. I think the problems I had with it are that the lead actor is such a weird looking dude and the claustrophobia thing seeming like such a corny gimmick in the earlier scenes. I still have those problems with it but that climax is well earned.

I wish Arrow US would release a packed edition of Dellamorte Dellamorte so bad. Whoever owns the rights (Fox, I think) is an rear end in a top hat.

It was a pain the rear end but I managed to get some photos of the crawl space. There's no light down there and i realized my mistake when I crawled in there and had to turn my light off to take flash photography so that was real pleasant. This pic is away from the entrance. It was super dark down there I am gonna need to get a flashlight.  I couldn't go any further because the ceiling is narrow and I didn't have a flashlight. Also, it slope downward there in a path but I didn't go check it out. I'll also probably do this in the day time so there will be some light.    I dunno what this is it's near the entrance and its a dug up hole and there's a big piece of concrete next to it.  Here's the pool

Hollis I think what you need to do is take out that kiddie pool and invite an eclectic, yet all attractive, group of teens to a pool party. Make sure at least one of them is psychic in some way.

How old is your house? That hole looks like someone removed replaced a rotting support by taking it directly out of the concrete but its bizarre that they didn't fill it back up

That's what I was thinking but that doesn't make sense because the support beam would just be supporting like my living room floor or something . I dunno maybe. You can kind of see it in that first photo where that piece of concrete is. I dunno what that downward slope is about. Like way at the front there' this path down. I need to get more light to go there tho I am not crawling in the dark to get there. Hollismason fucked around with this message at 02:29 on Feb 26, 2019 |

Franchescanado posted:You joke, but Irreversible is very much a love story, which also surprised me. The whole story is two men who both love the same woman seeking revenge for her. There is a 20 minute scene where one of them laments to the woman that he is hopelessly in love with her with her and her partner, who is his friend. And then you have the ending, where we see the couple deeply in love. In some ways, his 2015 movie Love is way more depressingly nihilistic. Like, at least Irreversible spews you out of a giant rear end in a top hat only to have you crawl into the light. Love is literally just a young dude with a girlfriend he doesn't love anymore and a kid he's too emotionally immature to take care of remembering the last really hosed up relationship he had. It's brutal in a neorealistic way, where as Irreversible is so heavily stylized and metaphorical from the drop that it's impossible for me to engage with it as speaking to an earnest view of people and their apparent nature. Like a Decameron or Canterbury Tales story, it's a satire of values. The cartoonishly vulgar gay S&M club isn't where the characters end up, it's where they're born. Le Tenia doesn't assault Alex out of a completely random, in-born malice - He's getting revenge for Pierre emasculating him.

Origami Dali posted:Wait, Le Tenia shows up in the linear timeline of events before the rape? I don't remember this. No, what I mean is that the contra-linear narrative of the film presupposes the revenge as symbolically establishing the conditions for the rape, not the other way around. The opening of Irreversible is not a nihilistic representation of homosexual masculinity. It is a diabolical representation of hegemonic masculinity, which is obsessed with power and dominance. Technically, we are given explicit information that the film's events are occurring in reverse, but this "reverse" narrative is the true one. The rape does not occur out of the blue, driving a formerly "good man" temporarily insane with passion so that he murders someone. The rape is a symptom of how masculinity is culturally defined and institutionalized, where men find social value and distinguish themselves by attempting to be physically and sexually dominant. Like, notice how this contra-linear structuring of the story shows Marcus assaulting and degrading the transgender prostitute, before we ever see Le Tenia again doing the same thing. It is a complete mistake to read this sequence backwards because it's technically factual. What is factual is not always empirical. Marcus doesn't act this way towards the queer sex worker because of what Le Tenia did. He acts this way because this is how a gender-sexual hierarchy works. Marcus and Le Tenia are obverse of one another, the latter just represents the diabolical extreme of the former's embodied masculinity. This is even reflected in the twist "ending" where Pierre is the one who kills Le Tenia. Marcus tries to fight him, but then immediately gets his arm broken, emasculating himself. Then Pierre claims the phallic symbol in the form of the fire extinguisher and stoves in Le Tenia's face. In the "past," it is then revealed that Pierre feels sexually and physically inadequate compared to Marcus. Despite spending the whole night vainly trying to stop Marcus from confronting Le Tenia, it's actually he who performs the most brutal, psychosexual act. As with his constant mewling over wishing he was good enough for Alex, his performance of trying to stop Marcus is completely disingenuous. He just wants to prove that he's the "bigger man," which doesn't just mean killing Le Tenia - it means seeing Marcus totally humiliated.

It turns out the horror all along was dry rot. But yeah, nothing about those basement pictures disuaded me from my Hell Basement theory. Especially that narrow sloping passageway you can't see into because it gets too dark and goes too deep or the mysterious hole. I mean, c'mon man!

I got Christopher Walken, so even odds that he and I are the killers. I also get Obi-Wan Kenobi (MacGregor Version) and Adam Green, so maybe we can get our hands on the script ahead of time. Shrecknet fucked around with this message at 06:34 on Feb 26, 2019 |

Le Tenia does not actually exist. K. Waste fucked around with this message at 06:35 on Feb 26, 2019 |

I'm with either Anthony Hopkins, so if he's on my side he'll just eat the threat, or Sean Cunningham, which means if the killer is Jason he'll probably know more about him than anybody, depending on where you stand regarding the lawsuit.
