I watched several of the original blind masseuse flicks during IFC's Samurai Saturday, but haven't seen the newest movie. Added to list.

Thank you. Wow, the embed codes are totally different from original.

@dag amd @lucky760, we need IFC.com embed support.

Should look like this:

I am hoping someone can figure out why my embedding code fails in http://videosift.com/talk/Cant-embed-IFCs-videos-correctly ... For now, watch it on http://www.ifc.com/portlandia/videos/portlandia-treat-your-lover-like-your-dog ...

This is probably not blocked but cant get embed to work here.

Might want to throw this link in to the description or see if you can get the embed to work as an alternative to the one you are using now which is blocked.

*blocked

I just got an email telling me that "Dirty Wars" has been picked up by IFC Films. It will be released in about 50 cities, DVD, Streaming, and TV. More to come, I hope I can somehow post the entire thing here.

Boo. You know what would have made this movie great? Car chases. 1:38 is about right to show you nearly all it had to offer. There's a good one at the very beginning and this one near the end. The entire film is terribly paced. Really over the top violence kicks in way too late, to the point where folks in the theater I saw it in were laughing.
You want good car chases (an not a bad film overall), rent "Ronin."
Oh, and while I'm at it, the new "Gone in 60 seconds" also had crap car chases. The movie consisted of characters looking at cars, admiring them, then cutting to the scene after they stole them. Lame.
Sorry, a pet peeve.


yeah, you should sue them.

I don't really think the car chases were the point of Drive. FWIW, I thought it was a really good movie.

You're right about Ronin, though. Best car chase ever committed to film. Although "Bullitt" is a close second, mainly because Steve McQueen is god.

This is from IFC show Commercial Kings and is a spoof / fake.


It's hard to tell if this should be called a spoof, Ojai Valley Taxidermy is a real business and Chuck Testa is the real proprietor. Comedians wrote and directed the ad, but if it has ever played on television, I'd say it qualifies as real. It's just an ad that's intentionally funny, rather than unintentionally funny.

In other *news, apparently the Onion is getting their own 30-minute fake-news comedy show on IFC.
