If any of you that are interested could just reply saying if this works, and if not then suggest when would work for you, we can try and get as many people as possible. For those of you who don't know what a simul-view is, we all me...

You know, I checked imdb.com and they had Oct 3 as the release date and just assumed it was correct. A little more research and I get all sorts of other dates. The only thing any of them can seem to agree upon is that its first limited showings were on Sept 12, 2003 in LA/NY. But we don't have to be...

Bumping this up since we're getting close, just a little over a month away.

I'm thinking we try and do it on the weekend of Oct 6th.

Any luck on a chat solution, Bob?

I'd been looking for this for a while but it wasn't under the foreign section at the video place - it was under independent. I found it while looking for something else in the indie section and recognized the cover shot. There were times where the dialogue made me scratch my head, but that could hav...

Anyone else seen this? It was on AZN a few months ago.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0284478/

Its story was a little thin but it's worth a watch for those who like subtle dramas, which is likely most of you.

It's occurred to me...

...that maybe I've seen this movie too much when I'm sitting at work and singing/reciting the sound effects from the arcade scene verbatim in my head.

:?

Tom xx It does. Just Like Honey is normal length, and then 50 Floors Up (the b...

Both. You can select the audio and subtitle tracks just like any other DVD.

Japanese DVD and Soundtrack

My girlfriend gave me both of these for my birthday yesterday. I know it's been brought up in other threads how vastly superior they are as compared to the US versions, but I don't recall seeing any images or details. I haven't had a whole lot of time to go through them yet but here's a quick run do...

There were people in the theater when I went, but I went there alone. It really wasn't until I watched it after buying the DVD though that the full effect of the movie really hit...that viewing was alone too, as were the 10 or so after that in the week that followed. I've watched it a couple times w...

Anniversary Simul-View

So we haven't done one of these in a long time, and of course we no longer have the chat function anyway. But how about we try and make it a yearly thing to do a simul-view on the release date of the movie, October 3 (or the closest weekend to it). Bob could send out an email to all the users remind...

Other than the blinking lights and a little bit of movement on the street in one of the corners it's pretty stationary so I don't know how well that would work as a 'screen saver'.

That said, I think it's a really good idea and I'd use it. :)

in that david lynch way. anyway, highly recommended. It was Darren Aronofsky (pi, Requiem for a Dream) that wrote/directed, not David Lynch. Anyway, when I saw this movie with a large group of my friends everyone of them hated it, with comments ranging from 'trite and cliche' to 'best comedy of the...
