Not...Just for the record, I really loved Sin City. Not just for it being a guy thing, though (which it definitely is). See, you have two of the best directors ever (Robert Rodriguez & Quentin Tarantino) teamed up at once. With either one of those two, it's just a given that the plots/situations are going to be an order of magnitude more intense than you'll find just about anywhere else. Plus, these guys have pioneered some storytelling and filmmaking devices that have inspired and influenced the entire industry. So, from a purely "filmmaking" perspective, most of the output of those guys is top-notch. Pulp Fiction remains, IMHO, among the best films ever made -- although I should note that my wife refuses to watch it.Boldly Serving Up Wheat Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17804188398018016592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184989.post-44109700662005736582008-05-22T13:57:00.000-04:002008-05-22T13:57:00.000-04:00I hope The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly makes the t...I hope The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly makes the top 5 best movies I've turned you on to.<BR/><BR/>DocDochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16979621370660001312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184989.post-91434876921423417602008-05-22T13:55:00.000-04:002008-05-22T13:55:00.000-04:00My only complaint is whenever I pick out a film I ...My only complaint is whenever I pick out a film I have to be reminded of my poor choices in the past. "This isn't another Caligula is it?" "There isn't any necrophilia in this is there?" and the one that grates me to no end, "Is Lee Marvin in this and does he sing?"<BR/><BR/>Doggone it! Give a brother a break! I've said I was sorry. But after this, maybe it isn't such a bad thing.<BR/><BR/>DocDochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16979621370660001312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184989.post-8873680790828311772008-05-22T13:25:00.000-04:002008-05-22T13:25:00.000-04:00never SAW Sin City, but it's on my list-- right up...never SAW Sin City, but it's on my list-- right up there at the TOP now that I know it's disturbing just on general principals.<BR/><BR/>Flann, I love to push my own boundaries, though I do so willingly and with a certain sick abandon. I owned a BIG-ASS book of photographs by Joel-Peter Witkin who was fond of photographing dead things-- often people (or BITS of people).<BR/><BR/>I admire and-- yes, yes-- am a lil' jealous of your relationship with Doc. I've certainly not married anyone who wanted their boundaries pushed anytime after the exchange of rings, which is generally the vast majority of the relationship, and have therefore watched many a movie alone in bed with the lil' portable DVD player because my mates didn't even want to read the description on the label let alone WATCH as far as the opening credits. <BR/><BR/>Kudos to you both. And I can't wait to see you guys in about 24 hours!!Cap'n Ergo "XL+II" Jinglebollockshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06843124493633147728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184989.post-82750458782242882992008-05-22T13:01:00.000-04:002008-05-22T13:01:00.000-04:00I am so with you on Sin City.

We saw it in the theatre. *sigh* I'm with Doc in thinking that Notting Hill sucks pretty hard, though. (Not quite up there with Face/Off, which may get EG's and my joint vote for worst movie ever.)<BR/><BR/>Flan, have you yet introduced Doc to the wonder that is The Cutting Edge?Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08625950040870228573noreply@blogger.com
