<strong>Group Name:</strong> Movies we do not want to see - Try to convince us to see these movies!<br/>
<strong>Group Description:</strong> Want to be a member? Send me a message with a list of at least 5 movies that you do not want to see.  

There are many movies that I do not want to see.  I'm not sure if its right of me to decide never to see a movie without seeing it.  You know...like when a kid says they hate mushrooms even though they admit never trying them.  So maybe this is a good spot for people to display movies they don't think they want to see, and see if anyone can convince us to try them out. <br/>

<strong>Body:</strong> On the day before Halloween a friend of mine had a horror movie marathon at his place.  He does this every year. This was one of the films we watched that day. The Thaw Discovering this movie also lead to my discovery that as an actor Val Kilmer has been a lot more prolific than I had realized.  In fact between his rare appearances in the occasional lower budge Hollywood movie that you sometimes hear about every once in a while, he has been doing a LOT of horrible movies under the radar.  Well I can't personally confirm they are horrible, but looking over some of the average ratings I've seen for most of them, they don't sound too promising. This film turns out to be a strange kind of global warming awareness movie that completely fails.  In this film global warming has caused a frozen mammoth carcass to unthaw unleashing some super parasite that somehow managed to survive being frozen millions of years.  The argument seems to be that global warming could cause unknown things like this to be unleashed from their frozen prisons.  *SPOILER* Kilmer's character thinks that by allowing these parasites to spread instead of stopping them from reaching a large population that people will see the error of their ways and start changing their lifestyle more to fight global warming.  Although the film does portray him as wrong to do this, it is still largely sympathetic with him and clearly to campaigns to counteract global warming. It's just the most absurd way to make a point though.  Even if there were some kind of creatures like this in the ice, which is pretty unbelievable, there is no evidence for it.  Also even if they were there, archeologists probably would have found them at some point even without global warming anyways?  The parasites are so absurd, it's just as absurd to be worried about the same kind of parasites coming out of a volcano or landing on a spaceship which are things we would also have no way to stopping or predicting.  I understand the point that some people aren't going to start worrying about global warming until they can really be scared into reacting out of a more immediate threat, but this film damages its own assertion. Maybe it would be a good movie for people who enjoy a good horror with little creepy crawlies (not me) because the special effects aren't that bad, but all of the characters are just kind of dumb and humorless.

<strong>Body:</strong> On the day before Halloween a friend of mine had a horror movie marathon at his place.  He does this every year. This was one of the films we watched that day. Feast 3: The Happy Finish It may not be fair for me to even rate this one since it's the third in a series of which I have not seen either of the first two.  The film begins in the middle of a bunch of action with all kinds of strange characters in strange situations.  The film offers a brief but mostly uninformative recap of some of the characters.  Most of them die right away anyways. However as the movie progresses, it's clear that most of what happens turns out to be absurd or temporary or unexplained anyways, so in that case maybe it doesn't matter that I hadn't seen the first two.  The ending of the film is completely absurd and reveals how pointless any of the questions you may have had about any plot points really were. Kind of funny in a few places, but mostly stupid and sick kind of gross out and crass horror.  Not exactly my favorite thing, but then again watching mostly bad movies is what this marathon is for. This film also includes an actor named Clu Gulager who looks remarkably like the love child of Mickey Rooney and David Carradine. Rating: 3/10<br/>

<strong>Body:</strong> This is the fifth feature length film I've seen by director Tsai Ming-liang.  I chose to watch this film based on previous good ratings I've given other films by this director and to better my favorite directors by algorithm listing. He liu (The River) Tsai Ming-liang keeps pushing his way up my list of favorite directors.  There's a consistency to his style between movies, but for a guy who loves auteurs with their own distinct style that appeals to me, this is exactly what I'm looking for.  It's not that directors like this keep remaking the same movie (although sometimes things do feel like they are going in that direction) it's just that their vision of the world and of cinema and art is distinct, and the subjects of their different films are presented through that. Tsai is the best around when it comes to urban alienation.  If  you've felt it, and it's a topic that you think can describe life and be a source for transcendence in film I urge you to see any of his films.  The River does this just as well as any of his other films I've seen. Tsai Ming-liang:Total feature length films seen: 5Previous average film score: 9.5New average film score: 9.6 Rating: 10/10<br/>

Un condamn&eacute; &agrave; mort s'est &eacute;chapp&eacute; ou Le vent souffle o&ugrave; il veut (A Man Escaped) Made between the wonderful Diary of a Country Priest and Pickpocket, the style is all consistent.  Although the subject matter may be just a bit more intrinsically intense. I've seen a lot of great prison escape movies now, and I'm not sure I can say this one is the best film, but as far as the depiction of the actual process of escape itself, this might be the best.  The meticulousness of showing all of the steps of preparation might be rivaled by Le Trou, but the outcomes are different.  Still there is much similar about them, and it's hard not to feel like Le Trou was rehashing a lot of what was put out in this film.  Yet both films have some intangible elements about the characters that allow you to wonder and read different things into them.

<strong>Body:</strong> The Hangover I'd been wanting to see the one because of Zach Galifianakis but missed it in the theatre.  I ended up seeing it unexpectedly at the end of a night at a house party.  When things were dying down someone started playing what I assume was a pirated copy and I couldn't help but just staying and watching the whole thing. It was pretty much what I expected from previously seeing the trailer and some of Todd Phillips' other films. Zach is pretty much the highlight here.  Although everyone else in the cast is good as well.  Zach just has the more out of this world kind of acting.  Doing things that other people might find embarrassing but Zach acts as though is just logical for his character.  This is as opposed to the kind of frat boy mentality of Bradley Cooper and Justin Bartha's characters that embody the most overall tone of the film.  This is the kind of tone that I would get sick of a lot quicker if it didn't have the likes of Zach in it.  Sex and drugs are not funny in themselves, which I think sometimes movies like this assume.  It's when the film kind of walks around those ideas and sees them from another angle that might be more funny. The part that made me laugh the most was after so much madness and so many problems were accruing, in a side moment Zach's character just finds a piece of pizza in the couch and starts eating it.

[/quote]    Do you mean besides her very odd behaviour towards a total stranger and the fact that she seemingly vanished into thin air in an instant?   As I said before she looked as real to me as any person I have ever seen and her hand felt real enough to me when we did the "high-five"...   There was something at that instant when we did the high-five...   Her eyes seemed to wander from me and looked at something in the distance...  almost skyward.   The expresion on her face changed and the smile went away.   At that instant I thought this was very strange.   Her blonde hair was pinned up in the back and her eyes were brown or hazel, I think.   She wore a grey cloth jacket that was buttoned or zipped up to the neck with grey "fur" around the neck and sleeves and bottom and blue-jeans.   As you have read earlier, I have seen at least a couple of "ghosts" and this girl did not fit the bill...   this was something else...    Also she was STRIKINGLY beautiful!   I would almost say the prettiest girl I have ever seen!   And that is saying something!    I just don't know what happened that day and it is still confusing to me!                                                                             &lt; GOR &gt; [/quote]    Also there was this...   Thinking back on it, she seemed to appear out of nowhere as well.   As I got out of my car and began walking towards the door of the store I was looking around and there was nobody really near me.  There were people walking in and out of the store but that was somewhat in the distance.   As I began walking I looked down towards my feet and when I looked up again there was this girl about 20 feet away and looking directly at me and walking straight up to me as if she knew me.   Just then an elderly couple passed in front of me, between me and this girl, and her gaze never left me.   She did not acknowledge them at all.   All of her attention seemed to be focused directly on me.   I just found the whole thing to be very strange indeed.                                                                        &lt; GOR &gt; [/quote] Do you think anyone else saw her?<br/>

<strong>Body:</strong> This is the thirteenth feature length film I've seen by director Werner Herzog.  I chose to watch this film based on previous good ratings I've given other films by this director and to better my favorite directors by algorithm listing. Mein liebster Feind - Klaus Kinski (My Best Fiend) Herzog is not just my favorite director to hear talk, he is one of my favorite people to listen to altogether.  So I was excited to watch was appeared to be his most personal documentary.  About his most famous leading man Klaus Kinski, this is mostly about Herzog's interactions and relationship with the man.  If you know even a little bit about Herzog or Kinski or have seen either of their movies and have been fascinated, then I can wholeheartedly recommend this film.  My only real disappointment was that I had seen most of the footage in this film already through other sources.  So there wasn't quite enough new here to satisfy what I was hoping for.  Nevertheless, it should be fantastic for anyone with the right sensibilities discovering this for the first time.  If you are fascinated by a man with incredible acting talent but also with wild emotional swings between gentleness and the most egotistical hate filled violent fits along with other unusual psychosis, then that's what I'm talking about.

<strong>Body:</strong> This is the first film I've seen by director Otto Preminger. Anatomy of a Murder A good courtroom drama, but less for the reasons that I would have expected.  At some point finding out what really happened and who is guilty or innocent is not quite as important as just watching all of the different characters involved, their motives, methods, and relationships. Also notable for being one of the earliest major screen appearances from the great George C. Scott.  His talent and skill as a distinct actor were already developed at this early stage of his film carreers. Also interesting as one of the only major films I've ever seen that takes place in the Michigan Upper Peninsula. What also sticks out about the film is how open it is about talking about and investigating such disturbing crimes as violence and rape.  The word rape is used quite openly, along with many details surrounding the incident.  The crime was not made light of, yet we see how it can become more matter of fact or be examined in a more logical way when the subject of this kind of investigation which has so many other motivations and factors surrounding it.  This will not only strike audiences still today, but even more so when you realize this film was released in 1959 and how much more rare it was to see such things discussed in films this way back then. My only recommendation for people who are seeing this because they like a good courtroom drama is to realize that the path this movie takes is sometimes more about characters and a lot of other issues that can surround a case than the actual case itself.

<strong>Body:</strong> Moral Tales, Filmic Issues This one isn't in the Spout database but I thought I'd mention it because I enjoyed it.  You can see this on disc one of the Criterion Collection set of Eric Rohmer's Six Moral Tales.  The first film in the set The Bakery Girl of Monceau is so short at 23 minutes that it would have seemed kind of wasteful to have nothing else on the disc.  So we get this fantastic 84 minute long dialogue with Eric Rohmer and Barbet Schroeder.  These guys are as wonderful to hear talking to each other as it is to hear the characters in Rohmer's films talking to each other.  Even though I had not hardly any of the films he was referring  to I found it fascinating.  I will have to revisit this interview some day after I have seen more of his oeuvre. Rating: 9/10<br/>

<strong>Body:</strong> This is the second feature length film I've seen by director Andrzej Wajda.  I chose to watch this film based on previous good ratings I've given other films by this director and to better my favorite directors by algorithm listing. Kanal I'm always so thrilled to find new movies as great as this.  It's not great because everything that happens in it is so pleasant, but because (like several of my favorite movies) it is so apt in portraying the true horrors war and revolution, and more specifically what this particular moment for people like this in the Warsaw Uprising may have been like.  In some ways realistically and in some ways more poetically. It's an excellent ensemble movie like a lot of good war movies are, but this one really steps it up to the highest level.  So many emotions.  You are there with the characters, feeling the will to keep going on, and at the same time the desperation that the efforts will most likely all be useless.  Also, add this one to the short list of the most memorable final images. Even better than the amazing A Generation which precedes it in Wajda's thematic war trilogy, I'm quite excited now to see the final film Ashes and Diamonds.

<strong>Body:</strong> Snow White The final feature length film from the DVD set "Treasures From American Film Archives" is a classic tale, but set some of the future standards of cinematic interpretations.  Or at least it is known to have been a considerable influence on Walt Disney in his inspiration and execution of his own version of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.  My biggest complaint is that there seems to be moments that jump over major scenes or plot points.  I don't know if part of the film is missing or the filmmakers just assumed people were familiar with the story enough to know what wasn't being shown.  Otherwise it's a fun example of very early American fantasy filmmaking. Rating: 7/10<br/>

<strong>Body:</strong> The Chechahcos From disc three of the DVD set "Treasures From American Film Archives".  An interesting silent feature set in the Alaska gold rush from director Lewis H. Moomaw.  This is his only surviving film.  Some action, romance, drama.  The different settings like the boat, the lodges, and especially the Alaska landscapes are major points of interest as well though.  It was said Chaplin got some ideas from this film for The Gold Rush. Rating: 7/10<br/>

<strong>Body:</strong> This is the forteenth feature length film I've seen by directors Joel and Ethan Coen.  I chose to watch this film based on previous good ratings I've given other films by this director and to better my favorite directors by algorithm listing. A Serious Man It's a special moment that seems to have come around once a year in the fall season the last few years when I get to watch another new Coen brothers film.  Since they are my favorite filmmakers, and being a film lover, there are few moments of cinematic anticipation as big as this for me. My love and admiration for their films always ends up being massive.  Sometimes immediately, and sometimes as it sinks in.  Last year's Burn After Reading was pretty much instantaneous.  A Serious Man I knew I liked just as much, but took me a while longer to figure out completely why.  The reason it took me a while, is actually the reason why it's so great. It has a lot of the wonderful and distinctive Coen brothers characters and dialogue.  But in trying to make sense of the plot, the viewer is doing exactly what the protagonist is trying to figure out about his life.  A lot of things and events occur in Larry's life that either seem like they have some kind of meaning or otherwise at least incite a search for their meaning.  The same thing holds true about things and events in the film that incite the viewers to deeply question their meaning.  It's like the story within a story of the goy's teeth.  The Rabbi telling the story loves to tell it with enthusiasm, punctuating every detail, and seemingly building it up to a climax so that any average listener assumes there is some meaning behind the story that will be revealed.  When in actuality the point is never reveal as anticipated and the story teller's reason for even telling the story seems ambiguous beyond just enjoying telling the story. I think the Coens see themselves as story tellers like this, and maybe they even sometimes see God as a story teller like this.  Either way, they will point out that life can be like a good story where certain events seem to stick out as if they have some kind of important meaning or foreshadowing that we are meant to investigate.  But a lot of times in life that meaning is never quite found, so why should a good story feel like it needs to give a clear answer or meaning in the end either? As an extra comment about the film, all of the scenes where Larry is in his office are my favorite.  Be it either talking to the student Clive, or to his boss about his tenure, or on the phone with a representative from Columbia house.  These scenes should be added to the huge list of other sublime moments from the Coens' spectacular oeuvre.

<strong>Body:</strong> The Toll of the Sea Another one from the DVD set "Treasures From American Film Archives".  This was the first "successful" feature film to use the two-tone Technicolor process through its entirety.  It is doubtful that the film would have had even a small fraction of the notoriety it does not if it weren't for that distinguishing fact, although it isn't a horrible film.  The only other notable aspect of the film is actress Anna May Wong.  It was rare for Asian American women to have starring roles in American films, and she does a praiseworthy job.  Her appearance and performance along with two other secondary Asian American actresses and the sets filmed in the early Technicolor process would be my only primary reasons to recommend the film.
