"This blog entry is part of my “movie year countdown round #2”. Read more about that here. Burden of Dreams For a moment I was almost thinking about rating this movie lower than what I actually did: a 9 out of 10. Maybe that was because the movie didn't exactly exceed my expectations, but it certainly was what I expected. And since I had seen Fizcarraldo and have listened to Werner Herzog speak about many different things I had been expecting a lot. I have said that I could listen to Herzog talk about almost anything. He is by far my favorite director to listen to his commentary tracks on DVDs of his movies. In fact I wish every DVD had a commentary track by Herzog, even if he had nothing to do with the film. It's partially his strange yet soothing accent, but mostly his amazing outlook on life and art. Even if I don't find all of his films the greatest, I am always fascinated by whatever he is doing and have so much respect for what he tries to do. And in this m ... "

"Just in time for Halloween, Kevin Smith’s new film Zack & Miri Make a Porno hits theaters tonight. The only scary thing about it are the dirty jokes that flop, but the movie as a whole is quite funny. Is Kevin Smith a juvenile genius? Is Zack and Miri his Fitzcarroldo (as Paul claims)? These are the things we ponder amidst a plethora poop and dick jokes. Karina offers her reflections on Mad Men now that the second season has ended. She also implores us to watch The Bride of Frankenstein, and we do. Paul has some additional thoughts o "

"1. Jaws (1975)What more can be said about this film. This film never gets old, and it's still just as frightening today as it was on my first viewing. Unbelievable direction (understatement of the year).2. Fitzcarraldo (1982)The greatest scene in this film has a boat in it, but the boat is being pulled over a mountain (does that still count). An incredibly ambitious film about an incredibly ambitious man. 3. Lifeboat (1944)When the whole movie takes place in a life boat you better have a great story, and a great cast. Thankfully it's Hitchcock, so the tension and suspense is always building. 4. The African Queen (1951) Boogie and Hepburn on the run from German troupes. Battling crocodiles, rapids, and everything else that the African jungle throws at them. Huston makes a film that goes into my small list of perfect films. 5. Burden Of Dreams (1982)I'm gonna throw a curve ball here. Les Bank's documentary chronicling the production of Fitzcarraldo is a perfect exa ... "
