Requiem for a dream..

whew! great flick.

Examines addiction. Amazing that when normal people pursue dreams and take the wrong path, how you can just destroy everything worth anything in the pursuit.
 
Funny you mention this movie.

I am in the process of ordering it right now. I have read many good reviews and look forward to seeing it.
 
Have you seen the movie "Pi" (I think that is what it is called). It is by the same director and suppose to be pretty good. I might order this title if someone has seen it and would recommend it.

Pi is strange - it was done straight out of art/film school and is humorous in that it uses every single technique they teach you.
but still fun and the soundtrack is awesome.

and yes, they are both the same director.

Yes, I saw Pi. I found it suffocating. I'm not sure I like being stuck inside of one character's mind.

Pi surrounds theology and numbers. If you are familiar with the Jewish numerology stuff...that the number Pi unlocks the key to the origin of the universe - and possibly Wall Street -. it is filmed in black and white. Artsy, and known for filming technique, character, and not much 'story'.

I liked it. I see numbers in everything, though. I obsessively count circles and squares while riding on the train, so you may think I'm nuts anyway.

I would rent it, not buy it, unless you are a total computer or numbers geek.
 
If you liked Pi, you should check out Cube. Actually, aside from the mathmatical basis of both films, they have nothing in common, except that they're damn cool. :) Although, I will say that Cube is the best indipendent filrm I've ever seen.

Yeah, and Requim rocked. "Ass to ass" is my favorite movie line of all time. :D

even if you were, you'd see the failings in the script.

it is a fun idea, but lacking in most spots.

Hmmm. Can you explain the ant goo on the computer chip connection?

lol - not sure I recall that part.
I know that his computer was pretty kick ass, involving a cube of a chip suspended in a metal frame and there was a lightbulb involved.
most computer people know that is how all real number crunching is done these days :)

I recall that ants over the computer. I recall the old school terminal. I recall the computer crashing every time it solves the name of god (or gets close), and his headaches everytime he himself gets close.

you'll have to remind me more about the ant goo.

I didn't like the spirals on the newspaper and then the random numbers (well, not random, in theory they were parts of pi). if you have faith in chaos - or rather *find* faith in it, as this was striving to make a point of I suppose, then true chaotic motion would not havie spirals but instead the waves and motions found in true chaos...
and pi isn't chaotic, so the whole thing is a bit annoying.

on the other hand, the group that just recently proved that you can find any number sequence within pi is pretty cool.
and the formula that allows you to know what digit is at any place in pi - reminds me of heisenburg (sp) for some reason.
 
I just bought it on DVD watched it lastnight. I was loaded off of scotch and was sidetracked in the middle of the movie with some conversation. By the time that died down it was near the end of the movie. I thought it was a pretty good movie although I'll have to watch it again later. The tailspin they all took at the end was crazy. I wish they would've been more in depth with the ritual before getting high. It was cool how they would do those quick cuts like they did earlier in the film with the mother's food and coffee, but I would've liked to see the actual process like cooking the smack and closeups of the injections mixed in too.

I have Pi on DVD too. I'm probably going to watch that tonight. It sounds like an awesome movie. I also bought a DVD called Cube. The whole movie was shot inside of warehouse using two giant cubes. It's about 6 people who are spirited into a series of cubes in the middle of the night and wake up in their new surroundings. They have to use each other's strengths to figure out how to escape each cube and risk death or injury if they make the wrong decisions. It's supposed to have some really intense moments and I'm fascinated to see how the director managed to make the movie using only 2 cubes in a warehouse. I'll probably be checking that out tonight too. I heard good things about Requiem and decided to buy the other two because they were listed under the "Customers who bought this DVD also bought:" feature on amazon and they sounded like cool movies.
 
My damn connection was laggin while I was trying to submit my post and just saw the other replies. Ironic that all 3 movies were brought up in this thread.

Cube really is an amazing movie. I've met the director and a couple of the actors, and all of them were very proud of the film.

It's scary too...really scary. The budget was around $500,000, and it's still one of the best movies I've ever seen.

either there is a movie just like that, or I saw that one that you are talking about... not sure. saw it on tv one night.
and it was an amazing amount of suck.

but to each their own I guess
 
kinda fucked up too

i only caught vthe last few moments of the film, but damn it was fucked up. the guy that made it out didnt deserve it. ;)
 
HS, You're confused. I gauarantee you were watching llama porn or something, 'cuase cube kicked some serious ass.

Danialsan, the move was fucked up, true. But I liked the ending. :)

lovely choice of words there!?! ;)

you can still get it, sharing insertive objects between partners etc can spread it. and if the dude wears a condom then problem solved ;)

thank god they didnt ask me to define what an insertive object was :)

Sharing insertive objects. Hmmm. Its been awhile...
 
Cube was pretty cool, but the ending could've been better. I watched The Score tonight too. That was a good movie and I loved the ending.
