Title: Southland Tales
Post by: Stogi on November 16, 2008, 03:57:59 AM
What in God's name did I just watch  ???

I didn't fully understand it, and while it was interesting, I can't help but find it to be a little messy. Still, it's so thought provoking that I can't stop thinking about it.

Has anyone watched this? It's from the Director that made Donnie Darko and it's in the same vein.

So many of my friends think that movie was the second coming. And I just don't think it's that good.

Southland Tales was a piece of ****. Completely confusing and just not fun or thought provoking at all.

It's funny I hated it for all these reasons, but my friend loved it because it was confusing. He's one of those I-don't-understand-it-so-it-must-have-a-pretty-deep-and-meaningful-message-behind-it guys.

I thought the end was fantastic. The pacing, the music, but most of all, the catastrophic nature of it all was completely mesmerizing.

It probably would've made a lot more sense if the first half of Southland Tales' plot was actually part of the film and not a comic book that no one read....

We're friends now, you and i.

That movie was disgustingly bad. Only potheads and gothy/emo kids enjoy it
(In before the jokes)So me not liking it is saying alot ;) It also spawned the popularity of that god awful Tears For Fears cover, which God Of War 2 perpetuated

It's a movie I keep forgetting to rent, but I'd like to see it. I liked the overall vibe of Donnie Darko, even if I disagreed with the "twist."

If you guys want a movie that'll make you say "WTF," go watch Mulholland Drive. One of my favorite movies. I've seen it like eight times and I still don't know what the f*ck is going on.

this movie sucks.

No amount of drugs can make this movie any good. The entire movie reeks of trying to hard.
