Also, just about any 1970s Woody Allen movie.  But of course they're not set in Chicago.

I will get to work on a romantic comedy where the two romantic interests have bombs strapped to them.  The script is in early development, but the intent is to make it (as the critics will attest) "timelessly romantic and explosively funny."  I think I'll probably just re-write There's Something About Mary only the dog will be a bomb, Ben Stiller's c*ck will be a bomb, the jizz in Mary's hair will be liquid explosive, and Matt Dillon's teeth will be made of tiny bombs... the potential is obvious.

Also, if technical staff is all for romantic comedy and things that blow up, does he like that awful show with Ron Livingston in it... Umm... this one?  I've never seen it, but it seems to combine those two things.



Wasn't Mr. and Mrs. Smith kind of like that?  I didn't see it yet, but it's in my netflix queue.  Mostly because Pedro and I like movies where things blow up and this one seems to have the added bonus of pretty people kissing.

I just watched the Big Lebowski.
I really wanted to come in here all talking large about how it weren't all that but I'd just be lying ta y'all. That is indeed a fine movie.

I forgot to report that I saw Withnail and I.  It was not exactly my cup of tea but I can see how it would inspire passion in the right person.

Aww Wombat, you did listen to my constant whining at the beginning of the thread. Shame you did not enjoy the movie, but you expressed your dislike so diplomatically that I can hardly gripe.

Last night at about 4am I had my annual Big Lebowski night.  This is similar to Ray's, but without planning, robes, or white russians.  Basically one night a year, after I have been drinking heavy, I get really high and watch Lebowski.  It is like tripping shrooms, at this point I have gotten all that I am going to get from Lebowski (and mushrooms) but I like to keep on track once a year.  It is like a checkup for my soul.

Just saw Pan's Labyrinth last night.  It was great.  It was why movies should be made.  Fantastic.  Also incredibly violent.  Much, much more so than I expected.

that movie was awesome. as has been discussed.

I kind of loved Children of Men soooo much. Part of it may have been the company, though. "Fuck it, let's go to a movie!" on a random weekday, and we just all went and took the metro to a mall, and watched it. Me and a bunch of guys I kind of know on my floor, all talking about girls and drugs and violent movies...
Basically, I am not used to hanging out with guys, because most of my friends have been girls. always. So when I hang out with guys and have a good time, it is a big deal.

Eraserhead is a slightly disturbing movie but you definitely need to see it at least once.

Children of men is basically like treasure, has to have one of the most intense and extended action sequences in any movie I've seen.
I also like Syd. Syd had a rough day there.
