    Full Metal Jacket question

    Ok, so it's not just me? It's not some Kubrickian wink at something? I wouldn't say it's infantile, just odd, especially compared with the rest (ok, the Papa-ooma-mow-mow surfin' bird scene bugged me, too... 'Who will play the indians?')..

    Full Metal Jacket question

    Every time I watch this, I find the trash-talk scene with Joker and Mother incredibly jarring.. Their back and forth is so unfunny and the reactions of their audience so overblown ("Well, they call me 'the joker'.. LOL!! Oh no he didn't!! LOLOLOL HAhahahaha!!), that I have to ask - is it some...

    The Duelists 1977 on Bluray

    Man, wouldn't it be great if Criterion got a hold of this? THAT I would pay $60-70 for, not some used DVD or double for a Blu-ray..

    The Duelists 1977 on Bluray

    What the.. Why so expensive on Amazon, et al?? Along with Last of the Mohicans, Rob Roy, and Master and Commander, this is one of my favourite 18/19th century dramas.

    The Witch

    Loved the dialogue, and I could listen to Ralph Ineson read a phonebook.. Nice tension and sense of foreboding!

    Fear the Walking Dead Season 2

    I give up on this show..... :( Like 'Enterprise' they've taken what could have been an awesome premise and slapped us in the face...

    Blu-ray Review Star Wars: The Force Awakens Blu-ray Review

    D'oh.. No 3-D?? In principle I'm not a fan, but this movie is perfect for it.. The dunes, the star destroyer so close you can touch it.. :(

    Fargo - Season 2 (FX)

    Huh.. I thought it was Jude Law (ala the Grand Budapest Hotel)..

    Fargo - Season 2 (FX)

    Yeah I'm not into the UFO stuff, either.. It's not even a duex ex machina, as it's not solving any problems with the story. And I don't buy that it's a cherry-topper, as far as absurdity goes.. A reference to a reported incident, you say? I could get behind that..

    The Leftovers

    That was awesome.. Everything the Walking Dead 'cliffhanger' wasn't.
