i quite like modern 'classical' - Steve Reich mainly, but i've never really listened to anything written pre 1910.

it's all about the twin peaks score. that shit is off the hook.

yeah but which cut of Blade Runner have you seen? it's amazing that such an average movie is available in five different versions. god I hate Ridley Scott.

Bentley isn't slow. that's for sure. he skins quite a few opponents, he's certainly as fast as Joe Cole. not exactly Martins standards but still quickish. plus, he barely needs any room for a good delivery, particuarly as he's so two footed. if we're playing 4-4-2 next season we need to sign wingers, if we're playing 4-3-3 we need to sign a Viduka replacement and an attacking midfielder.

good movie. i can't watch film noir anymore though. jus too much of it.

i think you're missing the point. Eraserhead is his best though. everyone knows that.

Never heard of it. Will keep an eye for it though. http://www.jdmfilmreviews.com/userimages/u..._1158650181.jpg I'm not one to judge a book by it's cover, but I don't think I will. ha that is awful. the film is pretty good though. a little tired in terms of it's themes and how it presents them ('Absolute power corrupts absolutely') but an engrossing watch.

Been to Cannes a couple of times to the festival full of cunts and producers trying to get seed money. Nothing special these days. Having said that they have been supportive of the likes of Mike Leigh. Venice is where it's at. yeah but it'd be sweet if my film was at Cannes. as much as people may knock it, Cannes is still the interntional film festival. Don't get me wrong I like Cannes and things can happen there. There is still a good core philosophy of protecting and encouraging good work, but it is a tad over commercialised now. In the context of Lynch Cannes is immaterial they either love or hate his projects, but he is a great artist and beyond all that now. It was a shame back in the day that the De Laurentis production of Dune kinda destroyed him for the commercial markets. You'll never forgive them for rewarding Taranteeny will you? neither will i. rouge >>> pulp fiction

mang! that opening track is fucking killer. the rest is meh. but that opening track! Race You to my Room is canny lush too in my opinion.....and bright tomorrow. Mang? Is that some sort of Batman tv series reference? Splom! mang! = oh man! just hyper excited way of saying it.

to be honest. if i won best director / palm d'or at Cannes. i'd die a pretty happy man.

also Croupier is one of the worst films i've ever seen.

Fire walk with me is an incredible film in many ways and I'm a big fan of his. It was disliked not universally panned. The problem Lynch had was that films like Blue Velvet kind of attracted the film semiotics and hippie post Camden intellectual crowd. hah. well it got booed at Cannes and made 4 million dollars in gross revenue. i'd call that universally panned - critically and by the public.

i cried with laughter the second time i watched happiness. the first time. i was well. appalled.

it's extremely different to the TV show. it's a David Lynch feature and this is definitely reflected in the films darker tones and distinct lack of humour. but then again, what's ever been funny about a young woman being sexually abused by her father?

angelo badalamenti?

i can't really think of many but Fire, Walk With Me is probably one of my favourite Lynch films. yet it's universally panned even by fans of his movies. also. even though i've not seen it, i find it incredible that no one has released Luchino Visconti's adaptation of Camus's The Outsider on DVD yet. incredible novel. fantastic director. it cannot be bad can it?

mang! that opening track is fucking killer. the rest is meh. but that opening track!

maybe i am! but really. so i'm watching minority report in the background. meh.

now i'm truly lost. anyway. what was the deal with this parker guy and how did you suss out he was bluffing his taste?

each to their own. i did see it in quite a busy cinema (Notting Hill Gate) so that may of detracted from my immersion in the text, but I still think I would of found it a little forgettable.

does anyone think the nations criticism of McClaren's use of the 3-5-2 vs. Croatia ridiculous? Bilic said himself that is was the strongest he'd seen England play before that Robinson gaff. on topic, N'Zogbia has huge potential, but he needs to learn to use his attributes more effectively and not be as wasteful on the ball. in fact, he reminds me of a lot Theo Walcott, if a little more rounded.

i thought diving bell was pretty good. the cinematography was fantastic, and the director nomination was definitely warranted. but i felt it lacked it real emotional depth and didn't really move me in any way. in fact, it was funnier and less dramatic than i expected. which was odd. but the beach scene was gorgeous. i just wanted more power you know?

he's at Benfica. hit and miss first season. but i think that's to be expected given that he's only played in the MLS before.
