serum Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 did anyone see that documentary about the golden gate bridge vs. suicide jumpers? yeah its pretty intense. the strange thing is that me and my boy were talking about it as we were walking across the golden gate and a bunch of people were gathered looking over the side. a few seconds later police rolled up and the coast guard started fishing out a body of some dude that just jumped. it happens alot.

roadpig Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 i almost rented Bridge last night but i picked up Borat and Cocaine Cowboys instead. i will probably pick up the Bridge next and maaaaaybe Disturbia. i seen these movies there last night and i dont quite think they would be worth the watch... :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fermentor666 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Wow, "Gangs of the Dead" was a bad movie, eh? What a shocker. See this sci-fi classic about a rampant AI overtaking the world's nuclear powers, before Ron Howard makes it into a shitty remake: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earl broclo ESQ Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 thanks for the heads up on "the bridge" serum. i didn't know it found distribution. actually, i never even looked to see. so thanks for saving me the step. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serum Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 yeah it was in limbo for quite some time but i think it might have come out in july on dvd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earl broclo ESQ Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 it was released on dvd june 12th --time to see if i can que it up on netflix. i guess there is a making of in the bonus features. i actually heard about this through dateline, i'm glad it got picked up. without ruining anything, does it going into how the city is handling (or not) the issue?

serum Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 yeah a little bit. he mostly focused on the victims and their families. a big problem was that he got permission under the pretense of filming sf monuments. alot of the parents of victims were quite pissed. it brings up a good point about whether its right to film something and interview people while misleading them about what the documentary is really about. none the less it was pretty moving.

mindvapors Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 God. I just watched this horrible indie film called Puzzlehead. It was horrible. What's with indie films having to be about absolutely nothing, or make something potentially interesting into a long-winded fart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earl broclo ESQ Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 the title "independent film" has been blown out completely in the past 10+ years. you always have had to take the good with the bad though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earl broclo ESQ Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 i remember when someone said there was a movie called "ken park" coming out. i thought it was about the skater. i haven't seen ken park yet, but i saw bully. bully wasn't bad, but i couldn't help but laugh at it, even though i wasn't supposed to. am i the only one that thought gummo was a riot? i watched that with a group of people once, and they seriously got pissed at me because i couldn't stop myself from laughing at it. harmony korrine is an overrated hipster junkie.

El Mamerro Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 The Bridge is very good, save for one thing... film isn't really the medium for it. The movie feels like you're reading a book about jumpers and their families' experiences, scattered with pretty photographs of the bridge and an occasional shot of someone jumping. It really would have worked much better in the literary medium, where you can really flesh these people out. I also disliked the fact that they save the least interesting jumper's story conclusion for the very end of the film, only because he's got the best suicide money shot.
