if you've got a fast computer and are readily available to download and extract a 500mb archive.  considering the enormous amount of bandwidth required to host it, i'm not sure if the address can be publicly made available but you can most definetly arrange something with xixax

I don't know... if there was a way to extract apostropheS's analyses of "Magnolia", I would love to get my hands on those.

A friend recently suggested that we "keep this board fresh and the good thoughts on the old one as well."

It's kind of like seeing that movie you loved as a kid when you're an adult... Or looking at a picture of the first girl you ever made out with or had a crush on...

Some things are better in memory than in reality.

The longer it's gone, the more the good will rise and the bad will fade.

Quote from: sphinxi think you should know that pta genuinely hated that analysis

I'm not the least bit surprised to hear that.  I made a short film once that one of my classmates made an impassioned analysis of as a "Socialist manifesto".  That was about the farthest thing from my mind when I made the film, but the more he explained his position, the more the text supported his view.  

Moral of the story: Films always have multiple interpretations, and more often than not, the ones the filmmaker didn't intend are the most interesting.


And for the record, I'm not a socialist.  More of left-of-the-middle moderate.  But I have read "Animal Farm", like, eight times.

after reading all of these other posts, i agree with xixax in that it should be put to rest.  i'd recommend that we don't post many archived threads of it.

godard: he really just hated it and thought it was completely wrong.  i don't think there was much more to it than that

Let it die, however....if it does become available, I'd like to recover my analysis of the Fast As You Can video....I don't think I ever posted it anywhere but there.  In the video section as I recall, under the post about the audio and video being out of sync.  Thanks.

Yeah, and BTW, it woulda been nice to have some kinda heads up about things.....haha, nah, scratch that....its best not to know.  Then you don't fret about what you type...keeps things fresh.

I have no real problem with letting the whole thing stay in its grave.  I just found the whole thing with the parallels and references to masonry absolutely fascinating.


And Newtron, you clever bastard, anything with Natalie's voice or face on it is all right by me.

Find the shrine, all ye seekers of knowledge.

It is here where truth is revealed. Blind eyes are opened. And pants are cream-free.

Consult with the elders, for they know the way. The wisdom of the ages is passed only to the worthy.

It's possible to find the essence of Peace Out... one needs only to look in one's self.

you also need the decoder ring.

for a list of local retailers selling the decoder ring, PM Filmstudent, and he'll just laugh at you

Quote from: Sheriff LawlessnessTore the ozone

I see the fetal buddha thrusting thrusting at the hips
he's chanting and revolving but he doesn't move his lips
spitting out his charcoal phlegm but never taking tips
he tries to find an open hand for acid nasal drips
he ripped his shirts, he gnashed his teeth, and then he cracked his whips
I light a candle as his masculinity unzips
his necromantic bestial anger glistens as he strips
his naked patriarchal spasm summons an eclipse

my persuasion in regards to cockasian is to proceed with the tactical invasion and verbal reeducation in coordination with the impending domination of his tiny mental and physical capacitation whilst implementing aggravation to perpetuatuate the starvation of his nonlyrical imagination ensuring damnation in lesser abbreviation to the no pussy gettin vacation called his life

your dis-guise
may dazzle eyes
while all the flies
flock to your stench
while you're on your bench
like some kind of soap box
you stand on and hope rocks
our teeth to chatters
like you're all that matters
but you're not
you got
nothin' on wee
the me
or the bee

recognize?  Oh I recognize
and realize
it was built for you
and your corpulent stew
that you brew
and I fuckin' knew
that you'd come and bring it
and try to come and sting it

and maybe you're missin' it
that's why you're dissin' it
cuz you're name aint on it
and you can't quite flaunt it
like you could before
so you call me a whore
and a star fucker
thinkin' I pucker
up for your ass
believe me, I pass

But you feel calm and balance
as we praise your talents
then you can relax
and give us the axe
cause you're world is lax
and the others are hax

well that may be
but take it from me
you bring a flame to the forest
you'll burn down the poorest
but the strong will still rise
and then your disguise
will only end up foolin' yourself

Like I said... RESPECT...  Call Me what you will, but it's how we play the game, player.
