Find Your Magali

Quote from: Shaun DigiThe Big Chill

For some reason, this never makes my top-five, or even top-ten, list, but it's one of a very, very small handful of films that I will watch twice a year, without fail. Nostalgia and friendship are magical things.

Something Spanish

If necessary, that's how I plan to show people my love for Godard.

In the case of Apocalypse Now, the more excessive it is the better it gets. The French plantation scene worked well, as did the additional footage of Capt. Kurtz in the compound. When I want to see the flick, between the original and the Redux, 99% of the time I'll opt for the latter.

definitely. the french plantation scene made it feel like a much grander epic than i originally thought.

plus it gives him sumwhere 'peaceful' to return to after he leaves the compound.

I'm waiting 'til I buy the Rolling Stone that this is from. Then it's a free-for-all.
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.

I really feel sorry for you.  First you criticize a list of "favourite" movies, which you had not right to do.  Then you call me a liar and give me flack for a spelling error.  You obviously are taking personal jabs at me for some reason, maybe your just trying to make entertaining post for people to read or you just wanted to pick a fight to get a rise out of me.  So whatever, if you want to be the victor in this scenario take the win.  I come on here to discuss movies in a casual enviroment and enjoy myself.  I wish people like you would stop scrutinizing others in such an unnecessary way.  It just brings down the whole site and turns it into something it should not be.
