Just Hulu as far as I know.

Glad to see it's made its way to Hulu! I wanted to check it out last year, but it was only available for rent and I was never in a strong enough mood to spend 12 bucks or whatever to watch it.

Yeah it's good but not 12bux good.

I watched the original Meet the Parents last night and it's so much darker and more mean spirited than the Robert DeNiro/Ben Stiller movie. For those unaware, the original film was a tiny budget movie from 1992 which barely played in any theaters but it was seen by Steven Soderbergh who liked it and thought there should be a bigger budgeted version so Universal bought the rights and it bounced around before it became what everyone knows as Meet the Parents. Soderbergh himself was going to be making the movie at one point. Also it was financed by Emo Philips of all people.

We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

Ever got excited for a movie soundtrack based on an artist's previous work, only to find out that it was a fairly generic film score?

Because when I think of Jónsi (solo stuff, formerly Sigur Rós) his most popular movie contribution is:

Which is far from:

I guess Junkie XL/Tom Holkenborg went through a similar phase, yet he had done a lot of video game stuff between his studio work and his current scores. So that transition was a lot smoother.

It's always difficult to separate what makes the artists's iconic discography work or not work vs. any experimentation they might take in their foray into film sound-tracking while transitioning to a different medium. For example: Oblivion, the Tom Cruise Sci-Fi flick, sold its music as being the work of the band M83.

So to us, we get this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYqu7ejXaZg

Instead of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dX3k_QDnzHE

In this case, Anthony Gonzalez, the front-man for M83 said in an interview:

quote:

And now with his score to the new Tom Cruise sci-fi epic Oblivion, Gonzalez can finally add "Hollywood movie composer" to his resume. Sounds like a classic happy ending, right? Well, not so much. Looking back on his experience making the score, Gonzalez might be even more disillusioned by the film industry than before. "I started to work on this project with a lot of hope, saying, 'Oh, I'm going to do something super special and original,'" he says. "But you can't really, because there are so many people involved and so much money in the game that it's hard to change things. Hollywood kind of sucks the life out of you very quickly."

And to contrast, the Dust Brothers soundtrack for Fight Club is just as revelatory and vital as the box office disaster known as the film itself.

I wouldn't call Fight Club a box office disaster, it wasn't a huge hit on initial release, but it's a definite cult classic that made over $100 million internationally and probably made a poo poo ton more on home video release.

It's not like it harmed the director or any of the main actor's careers. And it created an entire generation of douchebags able to read a film's text but not subtext.

M83 also did the music for Knife + Heart several years later. Although the difference there is that the movie was made in France and the director is the brother one one of the M83 guys. The music rules. And the movie rules. Go watch it. It's SO loving GAY.

I'm not talking about its legacy, but its immediate reception.

quote:

Nevertheless, Fight Club, having had its release delayed until the autumn of 1999, faced an uphill struggle to win over audiences as well as critics. The latter seemed to be willing it to fail, and with Fox divided as to how it should be advertised, the studio was soon to be disappointed by its box-office take in America. By the time its tour of US cinemas was over, Fight Club had grossed just $37 million – considerably less than the $60 million it cost to make.

And it's been speculated that this was logically a significant factor in the firing of executives who believed in and pushed for Fincher's vision.

Just off the top of my head, because there's probably all kinds of poo poo I'm not even thinking of right now:

Knife + Heart
Funeral Parade of Roses
But I'm A Cheerleader
El diputado/Confessions of a Congressman
Closet Monster (this is a sad one that's kind of hosed up though)
The Hunger (1983)
You're Killing Me

And of course the obvious ones would be A Nightmare on Elm Street 2 and The Warriors if you haven't seen those. Just find gay poo poo and watch gay poo poo. Not Brokeback Mountain though. gently caress that movie.

One of the Vinegar Syndrome sub-labels is releasing this in collaboration with Shout! Factory. I've never seen it but it looks good.

Hot Tip: Godzilla and Skull Island are fantastic, but skip the next two in the series and watch Rampage instead.
