Syt

I have tickets for the Vienna film festival for Lars von Trier's Antichrist and Duncan Jones' Moon.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Bought an Akira Kurosawa box for 20 EUR:
- Seven Samurai (in 155 and 193 minute versions)
- Yojimbo
- Sanjuro
- The Hidden Fortress
- Throne of Blood

Now, that's a bargain.  :D

I think I paid over $100 for something like this, minus Throne of Blood.

No, at a local store. Rather happy to find it. It means I can now discard my 193 minute Hong Kong version of Seven Samurai with engrish subtitles ... for which I paid 25 EUR at the time. :P

Might not be as good as the Criterion collection though ;)
I'd like to see those on Blu-ray by them too...

Alatriste

I let my friends drag me to watch Surrogates.

I'll grant the premise is interesting, and the acting is competent, but the screenplay is really awful; a fishnet has less holes than this story, specially in the second half. If I had known the director,  Jonathan Mostow, was the so-called 'brain' behind U-571 and Terminator 3, I seriously doubt I would have watched the movie.

It ought to be, it's been out as a set for several years now.

The Larch

For the horror movie fans out there, you may want to check a movie called "Carriers". (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0806203/) It was directed by a friend of mine's buddy, and they can do with every little word of mouth they can get.  :lol:

I haven't seen it yet personally, but for what I read it's an unusual horror film, heavy on the psychology and dialogue, and light on action and gore. In case you're interested, there it is.
