  1. Eu não lembro quando revi Aliens do Cameron pela última vez mas é o único que acho mais ou menos da franquia. Quando comprar a caixa com todos os filmes vou conferir.

     

    Não vi nada de errado nesse do Fincher.

    Pra mim o do Cameron é o melhor da franquia.

    O do Fincher eu vi uma única vez, no cinema (e obviamente lembro bem pouco dele), e o quarto nem vi.

    Comprei a caixa, porém, e quando tiver saco assisto aos dois. 06
  2. A cena da chuva de cinzas com o DiCaprio e a mulher dele éfoda' date=' foda, foda.

    E aquele final hiperdidático, rrrrrealmente...

    Shutter Island é o Scorsese tentando refazer Shock Corridor (e falhando miseravelmente).

     

     

    Quanto ao guri falando que "não vê filme ruim", "escolho por diretor" etc, é normal e postura típica de quem tá começando no assunto. Quando se tem um oceano a ser explorado, a gente precisa de um norte e acaba recorrendo ao cânone - vem daí a importância que dou ao Kubrick, por exemplo, nesse momento de catequese. O problema é sair dessa fase (ou ficar nela, caso de muitos) mantendo uma opinião dogmática, essa coisa de achar que a "grife" já confere ao filme uma qualidade intrínseca. Os próprios Coen do texto em questão devem ter uns 5 filmes que vão de medianos a fracos.

    Já havia comentado isso aqui. Ontem fui a uma feira de produtos importados aqui em Brasília e fiquei assombrado com a quantidade de blu ray piratas. Não é nada tímido é uma avalanche de títulos com preços variando de 20,00 a 180,00 (caso de The Pacific e Band of Brothers). O filme do Fincher, The Network podia ser comprado por 25,00. Fim do mundo...

    Normal, bicho. Sinal que o formato já está popularizando...

     

    Chegou aqui por esses dias o bd de "Videodrome", da Criterion. O melhor de tudo foi ver que a caixa imitando um VHS (como é a do dvd) foi mantida... Lindão.

     

    Animalesca também é a edição tripla (estendida) de Avatar, que também recebi por esses dias. Ao contrário do ano passado, as compras de dezembro (e da black friday) estão chegando normalmente... 16

  4. Battle Royale (Kinji Fukasaku' date=' 2000)

    Caraca, como é foda essa doidera japa. O filme reúne duas das principais características pulp japonesas, que são a esquisitice degenerada e a forte tendência ao melodrama, às emoções mais superficiais. De qualquer forma, funciona que é uma beleza, é bem atuado, bem filmado e tem ótima trilha. Curti bem.

    Veja "O Ultraje" (Outrage), o último do Takeshi Kitano (esteve aqui na mostra), acho que tu vai curtir.
  5. E o reinado de "O Exorcista" não durou muito : chegou ontem um concorrente que provavelmente faturou o título de "mais belo digibook" até o momento :

    E digo que a foto nem faz jus, o disco é bem mais bonito ao vivo... Isso, somado ao fato de ser uma edição incrível (tanto em qualidade de A/V quanto de extras) e do preço estar em conta (USD 19) faz deste uma compra obrigatória. Tá dada a dica, peçam ao papai noel ! 06

At a provincial Catholic boarding school, the precocious youths enjoy true camaraderie—until a secret is revealed. Based on events from writer-director Malle’s own childhood, the film is a subtle, precisely observed tale of courage, cowardice, and tragic awakening.

    SYNOPSIS: The extraordinary, internationally embraced Yi Yi (A One and a Two . . .), directed by the late Taiwanese master Edward Yang, follows a middle-class family in Taipei over the course of one year, beginning with a wedding and ending with a funeral. Whether chronicling middle-age father NJ’s tentative flirtations with an old flame or precocious young son Yang-Yang’s attempts at capturing reality with his beloved camera, the filmmaker deftly imbues every gorgeous frame with a compassionate clarity. Warm, sprawling, and dazzling, this intimate epic is one of the undisputed masterworks of the new century.

    SYNOPSIS: A true twentieth-century trailblazer, Harvey Milk was an outspoken human rights activist and the first openly gay U.S. politician elected to public office; even after his assassination, in 1978, he continues to inspire disenfranchised people around the world. The Oscar-winning The Times of Harvey Milk, directed by Robert Epstein and produced by Richard Schmiechen, was, like its subject, groundbreaking. One of the first feature documentaries to address gay life in America, it’s a work of advocacy itself, bringing Milk’s message of hope and equality to a wider audience. This exhilarating trove of archival footage and heartfelt interviews is as much a vivid portrait of a time and place (San Francisco’s historic Castro District in the seventies) as a testament to the legacy of a political visionary.

    SYNOPSIS: The world of Gilbert and Sullivan comes to vivid life in this extraordinary dramatization of the staging of their legendary 1885 comic opera The Mikado from Mike Leigh. Jim Broadbent and Allan Corduner brilliantly inhabit the roles of the world-famous Victorian librettist and composer, respectively, who, along with their troupe of temperamental actors, must battle personal and professional demons while mounting this major production. A lushly produced epic about the harsh realities of creative expression, featuring bravura performances and Oscar-winning costume design and makeup, Topsy-Turvy is an unexpected period delight from one of contemporary cinema’s great artists.

    É o Steelbook mais bonito que já vi até o momento (a foto não faz jus, e obviamente que essa etiqueta verde cai fora...), e a edição é caprichadíssima (tanto o disco que é repleto de extras, como o livreto, enorme, com belas fotos e vários textos)
  8. Chegou por esses dias a caixa de Apocalypse Now (a completa, com 3 discos). A quem interessar possa : a arte, o livreto e a impressão são excelentes (o que já era imaginável), porém achei o tamanho da caixa bastante descabido (é mais "alta" do que aqueles primeiros digibooks), uma merda pra colocar em prateleira... Talvez fosse interessante que os selos chegassem a um acordo e fabricassem as embalagens do mesmo tamanho (coisa que fizeram acertadamente com o digibook de O Exorcista, por exemplo). Podiam aproveitar e limar de vez por todas esse estojo azul que a maioria dos discos vêm, porque ô troço escroto... 06 (nisso pelo menos o box de Apocalypse Now acerta - ainda bem que existem a Criterion, a Masters of Cinema, a BFI e a Studio Canal pra salvarem a pátria nesse sentido...)

  9. Endosso as indicações do Rob, só discordo com o "já bastam"... O cinema mudo foi bem além disso.

     

    Além dos já citados no tópico, indico qualquer um mudo do Dreyer (destaque para A Paixão de Joana D'arc - dos maiores filmes já feitos, silenciosos ou não), do Ozu (destaque para I Was Born, But...), do Mizoguchi, do Ford, do Lang, do Epstein (destaque para A Queda da Casa de Usher), do Renoir, René Clair, Josef Von Sternberg (atenção que saiu uma caixa com 3 filmes incríveis dele, pela Criterion), Erich von Stroheim, Louis Feuillade (principalmente Fantomas e Les Vampires), Ernst Lubitsch... o expressionismo alemão (pelo menos O Gabinete do Dr Caligari), os filmes dos anos 20 do Herbert Brenon, alguns do Gordo e o Magro (destaque para os dirigidos pelo Leo McCarey), The Lodger do Hitchcock... Ah sim, do Murnau, além dos que o Stradivarius citou, Faust, A Última Gargalhada e Tabu são obras-primas incontestáveis.

    Fiz algumas compras na black friday, mas comprei bem mais na promo 50% da Criterion na Barnes & Noble (a maioria dvd, porém).

    Ontem chegaram dois bds que estava ansioso pra ver, Lost Highway e Twin Peaks : Fire Walk With Me, comprados na Amazon FR. Ambos região b e infelizmente sem data para lançamento em região a (assim como Mulholland Dr e Inland Empire, que também já tenho).

    SYNOPSIS: This lush, Technicolor tragic romance from Luchino Visconti stars Alida Valli as a nineteenth-century Italian countess who, amid the Austrian occupation of her country, puts her marriage and political principles on the line by engaging in a torrid affair with a dashing Austrian lieutenant, played by Farley Granger. Gilded with fearless performances, ornate costumes and sets, and a rich classical soundtrack, Visconti’s operatic melodrama is an extraordinary evocation of reckless emotions and deranged lust from one of the cinema’s great sensualists.

    SYNOPSIS: The lyrical, profoundly moving Still Walking is the most personal work to date from contemporary Japanese master Hirokazu Kore-eda. Fashioned as a tribute to his parents, the film depicts one day in the life of the Yokoyamas, gathered together for a celebratory ritual that only gradually makes itself clear. Rather than focus on big dramatic moments, Kore-eda relies on simple gestures and domestic routines (especially cooking) to evoke a family’s entire life, its deep regrets and its daily joys. Featuring vivid, heartrending performances and a gentle naturalism that harks back to the director’s earlier, documentary work, Still Walking is an extraordinary portrayal of the ties that bind us.

    SYNOPSIS: Krzysztof Kieślowski’s international breakthrough remains one of his most beloved films, a ravishing, mysterious rumination on identity, love, and human intuition. Irène Jacob is incandescent as both Weronika, a Polish choir soprano, and her double, Véronique, a French music teacher. Though unknown to each other, the two women share an enigmatic, emotional bond, which Kieślowski details in gorgeous reflections, colors, and movements. Aided by Slawomir Idziak’s shimmering cinematography and Zbigniew Preisner’s haunting, operatic score, Kieślowski creates one of cinema’s most purely metaphysical works. The Double Life of Véronique is an unforgettable symphony of feeling.

    SYNOPSIS: In Alexander Mackendrick’s swift, cynical Sweet Smell of Success, Burt Lancaster stars as barbaric Broadway gossip columnist J. J. Hunsecker, and Tony Curtis as Sidney Falco, the unprincipled press agent he ropes into smearing the up-and-coming jazz musician romancing his beloved sister. Featuring deliciously unsavory dialogue in an acid, brilliantly structured script by Clifford Odets and Ernest Lehman and noirish neon cityscapes from Oscar-winning cinematographer James Wong Howe, Sweet Smell of Success is a cracklingly cruel dispatch from the kill-or-be-killed wilds of 1950s Manhattan.

    SYNOPSIS: British director Andrea Arnold won the Cannes Jury Prize for the searing and invigorating Fish Tank, about a fifteen-year-old girl, Mia (electrifying newcomer Katie Jarvis), who lives with her mother and sister in the depressed housing projects of Essex. Mia’s adolescent conflicts and emerging sexuality reach boiling points when her mother’s new boyfriend (a lethally attractive Michael Fassbender) enters the picture. In her young career, Arnold has already proven herself to be a master of social realism (evoking the work of Mike Leigh and Ken Loach), investing her sympathetic portraits of dead-end lives with a poetic, earthy sensibility all her own. Fish Tank heralds the official arrival of a major new filmmaker.
