Good Will Hunting - Idiosyncrasies

poolcleaner says...

^ Almost every American sketch comedy show from the late-70s and early-80s, Popeye, Mork & Mindy, Good Morning Vietnam, Dead Poets Society, Baron Munchausen, The Fisher King, Toys, Hook, Aladdin (say what you will about the movie, but his genie is THE genie), Mrs. Doubtfire, The Birdcage (remake), Good Will Hunting, Patch Adams, What Dreams May Come (I liked it at least), One hour Photo, Insomnia (remake), and then there's all of his random, unforgetable guest appearance and talk show circuit adlibbing...

Or do you just mean in recent years?

Terry Gilliam criticizes Spielberg and Schindler's List

spoco2 says...

I love some of Gilliam's work (Brazil, Twelve Monkeys, Time Bandits), like some of it (The Fisher King, Baron Munchausen) and really disliked one enough to stop watching it (Brothers Grimm).

I love some of Kubrik's work (Full Metal Jacket, Clockwork Orange) like some of it (2001), hate others (Eye's Wide Shut)

I love some of Speilberg's work (Indiana Jones 1-3, Empire of the Sun, Jurassic Park, Minority Report, Hook, 'Poltergeist' as he pretty much directed it), like some of it (Close Encounters, ET, Always), but there's nothing I have seen of his that I hate, in fact the closest I've got is with AI, even though I loved to death some of the decayed robot stuff. (Indiana Jones was close to me hating it, but really only the end really shits me)

I love Speilberg's work as he has quite the diverse catalogue and really hits it out of the park more often than not.

Maybe the fact that I don't really hate any of his work demonstrates that he is 'safe' and doesn't challenge you.

I have not seen the entire catalogue of any of these directors, but they are all superb, all different and all have made amazing contributions to the artform of cinema.

Man in Van

must. get. my. shit. together...

interesting on a psychological level. there's some denial here, i mean he could sort things out and be happier, but his lack of desire is keeping him at a stand still. perhaps something like subconcious fear of what might happen - because of some past trauma (kinda like the fisher king).

World's Greatest Dad - HD Trailer (Starring Robin Williams)

^ the fisher king, dead poets society, good morning vietnam.

he made a few very good films early on, even if they are a bit soppy. and i agree: one hour photo was surprisingly good, and williams' performance was the best thing in it.

Breaking down one of moviedom's last taboos...

Trancecoach says...

Fight Club has shot o' the cock as its final image before credits. And um, there are a few other movies with full frontal male nudity.. The Piano's infamous Keitel, and, didn't Robin Williams run around in the Fisher King? Do we really need to fabricate taboos to generate scandal? Isn't the world scandalous enough?
