TV/Movies Megathread

Called it. TWD.

So my local art house is doing a My Bloody Valentine screening in January.  The heart is in the right place (ha ha), because that's one of the best slashers ever made and in point of the fact the single best I've seen (unless you're a pedant and count Psycho).  But I was dubious that it would be a proper big screen presentation--I don't think they even have the equipment to handle 35mm (of which only one print of the uncut Valentine exists anyway) and to the best of my knowledge it was never converted into a file that could be carted around the country on a hard drive for super-HD digital projection.  I reckoned, then, that it would be at least a blu-ray screening.  Of coruse, I was wrong, and they're showing a DVD.  Christ, is that weak.  Maybe I'll see if it's legally ok for them to borrow my blu-ray.

They also have failed to manage to acquire Whiplash or The Babadook.  My local art house sucks.

I like fullscreen movies.

Lovelace. I watched it on my phone. What a world.

Amanda Seyfried was adorable as ever, but the film wasn't very interesting.

On VHS or Betamax?

Saw 10 minutes of Irreversible. Fuck that pretentious camera-spinning shit.

Agreed, but it does get better.

Probably likes dubbed films, too.  Even in France.

Cyber Monday purchase - Twin Peaks box set :-) It's been on my wish list forever but when the new series was announced it got ridiculously expensive.

Classy girl.
