LOL. That may be true, but I'm now debating on going to the Aero tonight now. Imagine if they did it again.

If you see M. Night Shyamalan sitting discreetly in the back row, get the hell out of there.
The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong in the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.

I laughed, if it's any consolation. Sorry, everyone.

This secret premiere business is making late September seem even farther away.

I was THINKING ABOUT GOING to see The Shining there tonight. I LEGITIMATELY THOUGHT ABOUT IT...that thought is completely fucking me over at the moment. PTA seriously is so awesome for doing that. What lucky souls.



No...

No way am I reading what those assholes think. I'll be avoiding reviews like JB is avoiding that still of Joaquin riding a unicorn into the sunset.
I always wanted to be bad. They kicked me outta school, I said "that's great!"

Wait... So, Jeremy, You haven't seen ANY footage or still from "The Master" yet?

I only saw the first trailer. I've seen stills, but only ones directly posted in this thread. I've already been spoiled enough. Ideally, I'd like to know absolutely nothing about the film.

wow thats amazing, I didn't see that.

does anyone know why philip seymour hoffman rides a motorcycle? that seemed a bit random in the trailer. is it something about achieving mental freedom?

Because just like Howard Hughes, L. Ron Hubbard liked the desert... He spent sometime (Again, just like Hughes) riding bikes in the desert.

Yes, that's what I figured too; on that front, it also immediately brought to mind Melvin and Howard, which I believe is one of PTA's favourites.


Yeah... We've already talked about the "Melvin and Howard" references..




There's also so much HARD EIGHT and BOOGIE NIGHTS in that movie... So many shots that PTA "borrowed". 


I don't know who's in charge here but I propose that we start a "Xixax References/Connections" thread. Kinda like IMDB connections but BETTER, because IMDB connections fucking SUCKS. I've sent a ton of references and they NEVER post them, even if they are obvious.

Like the way BOOGIE NIGHTS begins like 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY

The way Boogie Nights begins like 2001: A Space Odyssey.. How so?
I always felt that There Will Be Blood began like 2001: A Space Odyssey, as everyone knows in both films not a word is spoken for a very long time, but the key comparison is that just as the Apes find their "tool" so does Daniel Plainview (He draws the pulley system on the notepad), Just as 2001: A Space Odyssey's opening depicts the turning point for humanity, TWBB's opening the turn of the century for prospectors, so on so forth

Your references are a treat InTylerWeTrust, good digging!

Are there any dedicated threads -- perhaps separated by movie -- for PTA shot references? There are a few much talked about references for certain stand-out shots, but I'm curious to see a more complete catalog of obscure and subtle references. Screenshots -- like those above -- would be nice, too. There's a shot in TWBB that references another in Andrei Rubylov -- I've never before seen it mentioned (though I would be a bit disappointed if no one here had noticed)
