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.

Wouldn't you all love to see one of us Xixax fucko's on Greenlight?

After watching season 2, I am fully convinced that they intentionally mismatched Dumb and Dumber with a script that they knew that they couldn't direct just so it would be easier to create some fake tension for the reality series.

We should make the Xixax movie and try to get it screened at Sundance. It'd be a pants-creaming good time.

I submit something pretty much every year -- it's sort of just ritualistic now, more than anything else. I have no expectations...if I got in, it would be awesome, of course, but there's just no telling -- the quality of your film certainly isn't going to give you much sway.

That said, the rejection letters still suck. Mainly because they're so bland. At least the Slamdance letter is written with a slight touch of wit and respect.

I submitted something shot on DV, and it was a rough cut, it was a short, so I'll find out on the 6th.
no high expectation here either...

Sundance Institute At BAM
May 31—June 10

With films straight from the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, sneak peeks of new work being developed with Sundance Institute support, and programs that take you inside the creative process, Sundance Institute at BAM presents nine dramatic features, eight documentaries, a screenplay reading, and 27 shorts from some of the most exciting emerging filmmakers in the US and around the world.

http://www.bam.org/sundance/index_2007.aspx

they're playing a handful of films from this years Sundance most of which are still a few months from their actual release.  films incl. Son Of Rambow, Rocket Science and Snow Angels, all of which i have tickets to.  i'm not really sure if the directors will be there and soforth but it most of the movies are just $11 except SoR which is $15 because its Opening Night and they're playing it in some Opera House.  should be fun.
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.
