    I don't think I've ever seen the theatrical cut.

    I own the old director's cut DVD and that 5 disc collection of the final cut on Blu-Ray. One of my favorite movies, ever.

    edit: ALSO my thoughts on the ring - way better than so many modern horror movies I don't know why it was so good.

    also also post script volume 2 pump up the jams edition: pip knows the score, rear window is arguably one of the best movies I've ever seen.

    oh man awesome the theatrical cut of bladerunner is on instant watch

    i've never seen this movie ever
    I have this in my instant queue but have been too lazy and stoned to watch it

    it's like, do i really have the attention span for this thought provoking scifi movie? no, so i'll just watch Major Payne instead

    I found The Ring surprisingly scary

    one of the few to ever legitimately frighten me

    oh yeah i forgot about the ring.
    two movies that have scared me.

    also rear window is a good movie. it's not scary at all but it's good.

    also the end is retarded. they never actually say that the guy killed his wife, which confused me until i was just like whatever he probably did

    the end isn't retarded

    it's ambiguous

    god you're dumb

    also, it's pretty well implied he did it, seeing as he tried to bribe stewart and then kill him

    and then they find her ring and the dead dog that was digging where she was buried and then he sees him moving a body sized bag

    and what I'm getting at is shut up

    i was being hyperbolic, i know that it was ambiguous. i don't like ambiguity that much in movies where the narrator isn't trustworthy.

    also i forgot he tried to kill him.

    I've always thought it was because you couldn't stop it or fight it like other horror and suspense movies; everybody is a normal person, no ghostbusters, no excorcists, and that little bitch is like a telekinetic demon on PCP. And she hates people that breathe.

    pip i havent seen that movie in like 2 years and when i saw it i was half asleep and burnt out on hitchcock

    seriously holy shit a survey of film class where 9 out of 17 movies are hitchcock movies. that's too much fucking hitchcock.

    to clarify i like hitchcock but i think there are probably some other good examples of mise en scene or whatever the fuck we watched all those hitchcock movies for.

    in fact i think the most recent movie we watched in that class was from like 1970 something

    also, the murder isn't even integral to the plot

    it's about voyeurism, vigilantism and if you can really ever trust the guy living next to you

    because he is some kind of crazy fucking genius.

    i think the limit per director on a film class should be like 2, 3 tops

    i'm glad i saw rear window and psycho and stuff but honestly when more than half of the class is just hitchcock i think you might as well just call it a hitchcockian film class

    I certainly agree, while Hitchcock is definitely one of the more important directors in film that does seem to be a bit of an overkill. There are plenty of other guys to study.

    Sorry, I watched it recently and didn't understand why anyone could have enjoyed it. Strangers on a Train is where it's at.

    You should add Shortbus to your queue.


    I want to see this movie so much. I heard a really weird story about the director guy taking a dare from his cast/crew that, since he was asking so much of them in the filming he would have to try doing something new and gross to him - so he agreed to perform oral sex on a woman for the first time in his life. THAT IS DEDICATION TO A MOVIE SIRS.

    And The Birds isn't supposed to be scary-- most "horror" movies aren't-- and besides, the birds are just a metaphor for matriarchal repression of sexuality. And, I don't know about you, I'm not that scared about my mom ruining my boner time.

    They Live was pretty sweet.

    Rowdy Roddy Piper also makes it so much funnier.

    Nothing scary about it, just awkwardness and a crazy premise.

    is The Dreamers that film with that bond girl Eva Green? I vaguely remember seeing this and then she became some bond girl.

    possibly the only time I have seen a bond girl outside of bond films BEFORE bond!

    oh wait no...was halle berry the bond girl in Die Another Day?

    Yup. It's fucking fantastic. So is Man on Wire. It's the best Werner Herzog movie that Werner Herzog never made.

    Edit: Yes, The Dreamers is that film where the that Bond girl shows her vagina.

    You're mostly wrong, but, you're right in this: That film is not fun to watch.

    I'm glad I never have to see that movie again, though.
