13 Assassins is just so dumb and over the top, i love it

Harakiri (1962) and Samurai Rebellion (1967) are the most essential non-Kurosawa samurai movies.

It's sad/funny that he can't just take the loss. Just fuckin admit it Paul. You and your improv pals made a bad movie. Yes idiots on social media were being lovely to you and the stars, but the movie was still lovely.
Even cherrypicked, the behind the scenes footage pulled in the Plinkett reviews of the cast and crew looking annoyed and vaguely embarrassed while others are riffing is so damning

Fun background listen that gives a glimpse of life on the RLM compound:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqLcqNXXbjA

It’s nostalgic/sad to hear Jessie on there, referring to Best of the Worst as “our” show and talking about life with Mike. The crew is lesser without her.

RLM’s programming could really could use more female energy but they haven’t had a lady guest in what, 5 years? Makes me think that they purposefully avoid inviting women on due to past bad experiences with their fanbase.

Let's not sell them short, it could be past bad experiences with them.

I've heard from a mod here who had a friend who either interned with them or interviewed for an internship or assistant position and said it was a pretty bad experience for much the expected reasons of working with random white dudes

Thankyou for indirectly linking me to these best of Schwarzenegger commentary videos

I remember ages ago, 15+ years ago probs, I rented the Conan DVD and after watching it I started rewatching with the commentary. They were literally just saying what was happening on the screen without adding anything. It's funny in that video, but it got old pretty fast when you tried to watch the whole commentary.

The commentary tracks for Cannibal: the Musical and Orgazmo are GOAT tier

e: Also the Futurama DVD set commentaries. Alot of those are great, especially those with the cast members.

A Fistful of Dollars is fun to watch after Yojimbo, and The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is great on its own. (I don't remember a thing about For a Few Dollars More.)

Magnificent Seven isn't really worth watching, even after watching Seven Samurai. Unless you're into cheesy 60s Westerns anyways.

i had a great time with for a few dollars more when i watched the trilogy back-to-back, for a moment i thought it was going to be the best of the set

but then, starting from the civil war bridge scene and on, the good, the bad, and the ugly was just so good it squeaked ahead

The good, the bad and the ugly is a really good film with great characters until the bridge battle and after that it's so good it's literally unfair to compare most movies to it.

Magnificent seven is a really good movie, that is a great double feature with Seven Samurai. The recent remake was total trash, but that's pretty much standard for every remake they've done in the past 15 years.

There's a rabbit hole of going from a casual viewer of these films to learning the film student stuff and it's insane.

Like in Leone movies, anything off-camera doesn't exist yet. So one moment two characters are casually talking about needing to go somewhere to see a thing, they walk 10 feet to swing the camera slightly to the right, and there's a gigantic war happening. The only moved 10 feet, but now the war exists in their world, because now the camera can see it. (bong hit)

I'm pretty sure Lars Von Trier said this is his attitude to film making as well, I can't remember specifically what it was regarding but possibly Dogville. It's a cool concept of the camera/viewer constructing reality

Blade of the Immortal was really fun until like the last 15-20 minutes where it became pure schlock instead of just 80% schlock

Also it should've stayed in black and white imo as the costumes looked too machine-made, and the bloodworm cgi was not great
