Just rented a DVD from netflix called Uncovered: The whole truth behind the iraq war. Thought I would compare it with F911. Cinematically, there is nothing fancy there, just interviews spliced together divided by chapters. It seems that there are a lot of ex-CIA employees who aired their...
I was expecting a polarized opinion across age group as well, but it looks pretty even. Compare the 45+ age group with the 18-29 one and they look identical.
Disclaimer: I'm an independent but in most part, I agree with Moore's take on the Iraq war. For the record, I voted for Reagan 2x, Bush, Clinton 2x, and Gore. W. broke my streak! :) Saw the movie on a Thurs midnight show in Skokie, Illinois. The crowd was mostly college-age young and they...
I've always been an avid follower of home theatres, software and hardware, since early 80's when one of my rich cousins - and obviously I'm not :) - paid someone to build one. The guy wasn't really a movie fan, though, putting more money into the leather seats and a designer dog to "decorate"...
When I go through my collection once in a while to cut the "fat" out, my main goal is to make sure that I'm keeping my personal goal of collecting the movies in the first place. That and I don't want to waste shelf spaces on my boltz rack :) What others think of my collection is not that...
Netflix has deals with certain studios on buying the discs at cost but will share the profit with them. This was in several articles written about Netflix business model. I don't know why industry analysts think there's a low barrier to enter this business and compete with Netflix. Besides...
How about pr0ns? Do you guys add them to your collection list? If you think having Ballistic:Ecks vs. Sever going to embarass you, how about having Extreme Bestiality part XXI is going to make you feel? :D I have several category III movies from Hong Kong (nudity or extereme violence) and I...
Most of the "deviants" from my DVD collections are from blind buys. These are movies that are either cheap when I found them or foreign movies that even Netflix does not (or has not) carry. Due to their crappiness, combined with either their worthlessness in terms of monetary value or...
C'est La Vie, Mon Cheri - I haven't heard a lot of people mentioned this movie but this was one of the best HK movies ever. I'm usually very wary and cynical of HK movies since I got burned so often but I can't find a fault with this one after watching it over and over again. Some of the...
Kong Chang, to each its own, but the majority of the people I'm with during Hero's screening thought the movie is very entertaining. If you're a Zhang Yi Mou, heck, if you're a fan of a good movie, you need to see this movie. More likely than not, you'll like it. I bought To Live and Raise...
