Daft Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 I'm not wasting 4 minutes of my life on whatever that is. Thanks.
ReZourceman Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 Possibly the strangest thing I've done. Give the whole thing a watch because the tone shifts half way through. I'm not wasting 4 minutes of my life on whatever that is. Thanks. Your loss. It will expand your views and change your outlook on certain things (bread is a subliminal recurring theme for example) but thats fine.

I don't have any more faith in humanity left to lose, I'm afraid.
EEVILMURRAY Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 I don't have any more faith in humanity left to lose, I'm afraid. Good on you man. Witnessing the illusion of ReZ having diarrhea would make you implode.
ReZourceman Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 I wouldn't call it diarrhea. I'd call it diarrhoea.
ReZourceman Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 Your diarrhoea is more practical than mine?
EEVILMURRAY Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 Hell yeah. Mine doesn't carry the risk of getting shit on your camera.
Raining_again Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 would you all stop bloomin talking verbal diarrhoea plz.

What would people recommend I watch next? Synecdoche is top of my list...
Fierce_LiNk Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 Well done for including 2001: A Space Odyssey. That film is great for that "I think I get it, but I really get very little at all" feeling. Especially the last 5 minutes, with the "Star-gate" and beyond. The Virgin Suicides was quite strange, I definitely want to see that again. Another one was a film called "Storytelling", which was essentially split up into two segments. Fiction and Non-fiction. It's not the best film that you'll ever see, but it is a bit strange and quite interesting.
jayseven Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 Virgin Suicides is good. For some reason my mind allocates it with Stand By Me and Dead Poets Society. They all have that tone to them... None are mindfucks, but all are wholesome, not-quite-family films that seem to me to be a good stepping stone between childhood and adulthood cinema, leaving you with something to feel, yet getting you there in a rather didactic way that isn't seriously challenging, just unexpected.

I agree with you on that, especially the stepping stone part. I think maybe you mean "coming-of-age." I love those types of films. I actually watched Stand By Me the other day, it never ever gets old. My perfect film.
Daft Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 The film and the book of What Dreams May Come are quite different. I wouldn't have thought the film has aged well, either.
Paj! Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 Synecdoche is top of my list... As it should be. You've seen Inland Empire haven't you? I'm sure you said you had ages ago...if not, get on that.
Nolan Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 I completely forgot about ever seeing Barton Fink...talk about weird.
