and i can easily just go into the store and pick up new movies after i watched the dvds that comes in the mail. they are also doing blu-ray and hd dvd online now but those are impossible to get since everyone is renting it and there aren't that many blu-ray/hd dvd titles out yet. I pay 17.99 a month for all this. And I live in crazy commercial area.. so I think the only video rental stores around are... blockbuster and possibly hollywood video but I've never been to one myself.

my friends switched from netflix to blockbuster, like you they like being able to go to the store, their tastes are more mainstream than mine

I didn't enjoy Hostel so I haven't even bothered with Hostel 2 yet. Something has been lost in these movies. This guy is getting a ton of credit for these movies and me being a horror fan; I would put his movies in another genre. Just not my thing but nice to see lots of tits.

American Beauty was good and also around that time and often overlooked, The Virgin Suicides

gonzo452001 · 07-15-2007, 01:22 PM

Hostel2 does have a twist at the end some people find those movies to gross have you ever seen ichi the killer

brickhardmeat · 07-15-2007, 01:34 PM

I love Ichi the Killer!

Audition*
The Bird People in China
City of Lost Souls*
Dead or Alive*
Dead or Alive 2*
Dead or Alive Final*
Deadly Outlaw:Rekka
Fudoh: The New Generation*
Full Metal Yakuza
Gozu*
The Great Yoki War
The Happiness of the Katakuris*
Ichi the Killer*
Izo*
Last Life in the Universe*
Ley Lines*
Masters of Horror-Takashi Miike:Imprint
MPD Psycho, II, III
Neighbor No. 13*
One Missed Call*
Rainy Dog*
Sabu
Shinjuku Triad Society
Three....Extremes
Visitor Q*
Yakuza Demon*
Young Thugs: Innocent Blood

Above is what I have seen so far of Takashi Miike films. I put asterisks by the ones I most enjoyed but I have never been dissapointed by any of his films.

Have you seen Ichi-1 based on the same character but different director? I haven't seen yet. It is a prequel to Ichi the Killer.

gonzo452001 · 07-15-2007, 02:51 PM

Don't think so have seen other takashi Miike movies think he has a thing for breast milk

brickhardmeat · 07-15-2007, 03:25 PM

yes both in Gozu and in Visitor Q breast milk was used

I would highly recomend Last Life in the Universe and Gozu. Gozu is quite like a David Lynch film as far as the style of the film.

I just queued it up in my Netflix. Probably catch it later this week. Translated as "after life" on the netflix sight. They compare with Red and Blue and Red is one of my favorite Krzysztof Kieslowski films.

That scene with the arms for legs and legs for arms is pretty wicked. It wasn't a terrible movie. Could have been worse.

vodkalush · 07-16-2007, 02:12 PM

I liked the last king of Scotland, nothing to write home about: but i did go into it with no expectations

sherryberry · 07-16-2007, 02:16 PM

I've yet to see last king of scotland. All i know is that there's good acting in it heh.

I'll rent it next chance I get.

Although, I haven't had as much time to watch movies as I used to. Darn work.

What in your opinion is the WORST movie you've ever seen? I mean relative to how much it cost to make.

kurokoma-kun · 07-16-2007, 03:40 PM

Oh yeah, have you seen Metropolis by Fritz Lang? One of my all-time faves, even with the cheesy soundtrack on Giorgio Moroder's version.

That's a really tough one because many of the movies I like would be considered bad but my tastes vary tremendously.

The Fountain-what a waste-it was pretty awful

This would be my choice as far as somewhat recent viewings go. I'll have to ponder it for a bit to come up with an all time WORST.

that super old movie? I have never seen the entire thing, no. I have been meaning to for a very long time.

as far as visual masterpieces go......

I did see Kenneth Anger Volume I

FIREWORKS, PUCE MOMENT, RABBIT'S MOON, EAUX D'ARTIFICE, and INAUGURATION OF THE PLEASURE DOME

I was wowed to say the least. AMAZING
