As this post has little/nothing to do with my life, it shall be made public. All ye shall enjoy! Let these lists weight upon your soul like two rotting hunks of magic mushroom.
The Godfather was better! Have you seen Taxi Driver, The Deer Hunter, Das Boot, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly or The Seven Samurai? I'm not immediately sure why, but these were the first films that came to mind when I thought of The Godfather. Also, 21 Grams was kind of slow, and creepy. If it weren't for Benicio Del Toro, I'm not sure 21 Grams would have even been in the Top-10. Also, I haven't seen alot of the films I would suspect should have been on my list, like Coffee & Cigarettes.
If you ever get the chance, download Klaus Nomi from me. I discovered him due to Morrissey, and apparently he worked with Bowie. You'll love him!
21 Grams was great, but Amores Porres was far better. Same director, same writer, same type of story, but in Spanish. It can't be beat. Also, COffee & Cigarettes is poorly acted (except for Kate/Cate Blanchett's part), and terribly boring (except for Bill Murray and the RZA and GZA, the Genius).
I liked your lists though, Robbie. They make me want to make my own lists. My own Top Ten lists.
Did you ever end up watching Spartacus? Julie mentioned to me that you always picked it up in the video store, but never rented it. If so, what did you think? If not, you must see it. I nearly returned it before putting it on, but as luck would have it, I did not. From this moment on, I shall never curse my luck again! This film was among the best I have ever seen.
Yes, perhaps Shaun was better than The Incredibles. As for the Arcade Fire, they're from Montreal, and sing about dead grandparents. The fact that scenesters like them, too, is purely coincedental.
Eternal SUnshine of the spotless mind was INCREDIBLE! I loved every minute of it. I like movies like that....that start from the end and you realy have to pay attention. ALso Kill Bill.Vol.2 was good as well. It kinda reminded me of natural born killers.
Though I have to say, the 10 greatest albums of 2004, didn't really impress me. I didn't see the new Cure on it :( Lyndsey bought me it for Christmas, and I love it. It rocks. Classic Cure, With Robert Smith's angry love songs :D (I'll burn you a copy if you want it and don't already have it.) Lost, Aniversary and Us and them are my favs on the album.
I've never seen Natural Born Killers, sadly. And as for the The Cure, I must admit that although I did like it, it wasn't nearly as good as their older stuff. Robert Smith is still cool for school, though!
