You would specially appreciate the nods to Tolkien and Moses parting the seas

[FoolofaTook]

Hell yeah. And a 'kids flick' is a recommendation for the immature like of me..

Lord knows that Marvel pictures go hand-in-hand with complex and challenging themes.

"Don't you understand?" she manages to get out between violent sobs. "They were a family and they were all torn apart by the evils of extremist political ideologies."

There I was, maliciously flirting with her via Facebook and considering Once Were Warriors as a potential viewing suggestion.

[LaBelle]

I cry at dumb movies too, but that's a little bit too much haha

[redbreegull]

things like that struck a personal chord for her because she grew up in a super conservative Catholic family and was always just "different," then went to a hippie dippie liberal arts college and realized she had a major internal schism and was reaching across two worlds that wanted nothing to do with each other

beyond that she was just a real weirdo and I loved it

[Trotskilicious]

i think i read 2/3rds of the bros karamazov. in fact i read 2/3rds or 3/4ths of a book more than i read the whole thing

;( i'm actually quite stupid

[FoolofaTook]

Barry Lyndon A+

Can't believe I never even heard of this. So good, especially the last duel.. The first part of the movie is adventurous the second part is grim. excellent.

Karamazov is senscent. but really long. id recommended notes from underground or white nights if you want some dostoevsky that's more accessible.

[FoolofaTook]

Lol senscent

[FoolofaTook]

Also I cried twice during barry lyndon lol

[FoolofaTook]

What's going on? Why are you acting normal and decent? Did you hit your head? Take powerful drugs? Finally disembowel and cannibalize some hapless soul and achieve visceral orgasm?

Took, are you a Hunter S Thompson fan? Have you seen Fear and Loathing?

[Trotskilicious]

lmfao

[buzzard]

I don't know if you're into crime fiction, Took, but you should check out The Godfather.

James Caan is in it.

Of course! I've read Fear And Loathing at least three times and the Hell's Angels book and the Kentucky Derby short piece that started his whole gonzo thing. hunter was badass. too bad he got so high in africa and ruined his career (never made it out of the hotel room to cover a fight).

love the film too. del toro somehow steals the show despite depps utter senescetivitude.

[Trotskilicious]

that kentucky derby piece is incredible & the first time he met ralph steadman

[FoolofaTook]

Lol i remember reading fear & loathing stoned and laughing so hard that I literally fell off my chair. 4 real. cried too. and had belly aches. hunter could write like a motherfucker. There's this awesome letter he wrote once to a hapless rolling stone editor. if i find it ill post it here.

Yeah I was about ti recommend it to someone who wanted an intro to hunter.

[Trotskilicious]

annotated version still up on grantland archive http://grantland.com/features/lookin...entucky-derby/

Steadman wanted to see some Kentucky Colonels, but he wasn’t sure what they looked like. I told him to go back to the clubhouse men’s rooms and look for men in white linen suits vomiting in the urinals. “They’ll usually have large brown whiskey stains on the fronts of their suits,” I said. “But watch the shoes, that’s the tip-off. Most of them manage to avoid vomiting on their own clothes, but they never miss their shoes.”

Yeah he completely fucked it up in Africa.
The fight would have made for a great writing project

The movie (F&LILV) is pretty damned good but as one reviewer said there is lots of fear but not much loathing

[Trotskilicious]

"I have in recent months come to have a certain feeling for Joe Hill and the Wobbly crowd who, if nothing else, had the right idea. But not the right mechanics. I believe the IWW was probably the last human concept in American politics."

ilu huntar ;(

[reprise85]

the move adaptation of fear and loathing is to date the best representation of what being on acid is really like that i've ever seen. not the story they go through, i mean mostly the visuals and the strange thought patterns and magnification of insignificant things

[Trotskilicious]

that movie is basically perfect up until it gets really weird and dark with christina ricci and then i don't remember how it ends even

i don't remember how the book ends either but that was 10 years ago

[reprise85]

i'm the same way with the movie, don't remember much after christian ricci shows up

[Disco King]

Same story with Casper for me.
