The awkward moment where you're kind of really gay but have some really deep seated religious beliefs so you end up having a make out session with the Virgin Mary statue

Some of the second hand embarrassment really got to me bad because I just know if the choir conductor was talking to me like that I would be balling my eyes out in that room non-stop, like SIR no choir group is worth all that also I can't imagine it be easy to sing when you have been humiliated in front of the entire group

"We're puny compared to the great clock of the universe"

So I've been waiting over a year to see this movie despite not really know much about it (I will it the main reason I went was because Matthew Lillard was in this and he was great, the whole cast was, but it's such a worthwhile movie overall, I promise).

Honestly having no idea of the plot is kind of was perfect cos it's such a existential, kind of horrifying at times, but really beautiful film that I don't really know how to contextualize (I still have lots of unanswered questions, which I'm afraid is the point), there is a quote that I feel is very poignant to the film

"I contain multitudes"

But yeah you should definitely check it out especially if you're like one of the people I know in real life/LB mutual because I need someone to talk about this with

It just consumes you and your evey waking and sleeping hour as you spend your time being worry about every little detail of your personhood.

I can't believe I forgot how gay this was, Crystal spends most of the movie with her eyes glued onto Nomi's boobs and if they aren't on her boobs then the eyes are on her fingers which is so interesting to say the least, and then we have a whole thing with the face rubbing with Nomi and Molly.

This movie captures how Las Vegas is a city of gimmicks, the whole idea of a city in the desert that's full of palm trees, palm tree light displays, pyramids, topless clubs, gambling, day drinking, coke (both drink and powder), sports cars, Kyle McLachlan with that fugly hairdo (noooo), alternative universe supermarkets, Zak Bagans' The Haunted Museum, girls talking about chips and dog food. It's so ridiculous but Las Vegas is actual place and this movie captures how bizarre it is, like of course this would happen, of course Nomi as a person would exist in a place like Las Vegas

Also thank you David Cronenberg for adding the gay scenes, I think it's amazing that practically everyone was like bi, and I think it's iconic that James' wife was practically shipping James and Vaughan together

Religion makes people go absolutely off the wall.

It's such a strange and unsettling film, the entire time I feel like there's some kind of rottenness underneath all the crosses and Virgin Mary statues.

Anyway I'm very happy I finally got this off the watch list woo for me and all it took was a cold day and my workshift being cancelled because of the weather.

If you have any interest in lesbian film history this is like the quintessential film to watch

Just bloody hilarious even more so on second watch, every joke just seems land perfectly, it's so witty and intelligent in how it executes itself it, you might even say it's a bit sick of us to be watching these two guys go through what is essentially the lowest low and we just laughing up a storm or in my case cackling like a witch in the cinema.

I can tell that every movement, every pacing, every line of dialogue is meticulously planned to be part of this joke that is the lives of these guys and I love that, so smart and so pessimistic and so funny. The fact that the 35 mm print is quite old and been used quite a bit and has that really nice glitchiness (is that the world?) that adds to the grittiness and just the dirt that just permanates this film, I'm just obsessed

I still can't decide if I think Withnail is like kind of iconic in a scumbag way or if he deserves to be buried at the bottom of the Mariana trenches

The main reason I watched this is for Laura Dern and she did not disappoint, she is so expressive with her face that it's just a delight to watch her act, and I feel like more people should acknowledge that maybe I'm just in the wrong spaces but where's the around for applause for her acting just saying.

On to the actual movie itself the philosophy around the implications of bringing back creatures that have not been around for millions of years is so interesting, and very true about how "Life Finds a Way" because it does, could very much spell out of humanity if we not careful.

On that note, I really hope no rich farts in this timeline get any ideas because while the rich dude in the film was incredibly reckless, he at least have good intentions but the rich guys we have are like cartoonish evil, they'll currently enjoy harming the people and the planet in most harmful way possible as is.

So technically I have already seen this minus the last 15 minutes because my brother who is a coward, backed out of the film in last 15 minutes and said to me "we'll watch it tomorrow" then refused to watch it so I never got around to finishing it until today obviously, the irony is he was the one that's suggested the movie in the first place, brothers 😒

To be a little fair towards my brother (only a little bit), it is definitely a really creepy movie like throughout the entire thing first scene and meeting the characters you just know oh something's really bad here, just based off how awkward the interactions with each other are as well as the son having like a imaginary friend (never a good thing in a horror film) who already knows about the creepy hotel.

Throughout the film I did keep thinking about that one Simpsons treehouse of horror episode parody of it and I just think about Groundskeeper Willie calling the Shining the Shinning instead to avoid copyright and now that is what I keep thinking when I think about this movie especially in his Scottish accent

Not to be like "the original is better" or whatever but this has a charm that the remake simply lacks and I think a big part of that charm is the cast, namely Ricki Lake, Tracy Turnblad is her role and she has this real spankiness in her portrayal that the other girl doesn't have.

The remake also has a distinct lack of John Waters' insanity that limits my enjoyment of it, like for God's sake the man himself plays a psychiatrist that runs around with a spinny hypnotizing thing to get Penny to date in her own race which does not work btw, that's crazy but kind of hilarious in the absurdity of it all

So I think the cinema gods love me because explain to me how when I walk out of Shibuya station with the intention to shop like every other tourist in Tokyo right now I come across a cinema that just happens to be doing a one week only anniversary 4K screening of Party Girl, a movie that I just been thinking about the other day on how fun and awesome it was, that is one of the best like coming of age stories that don't involve high schoolers, no hate, I just don't really relate to the struggles of high schoolers anymore, been there done that

However I do relate the impending anxiety of being in your 20s thinking "what am I going to do with my life? what do I want to do career wise or with my relationships? do I keep living this like carefree happy lifestyle or should I knuckle down and focus?" and on top of that Parker Posey is hilarious with how she delivers her dialogue and just her character perfectly accurate for a 20 something year old in the 90s who needs to get her life together and has such great fashion sense (girl where do you get those tights I need to know)

Also just see it on the big screen and just like absorb the music and trying to gauge what like my fellow audience were feeling was great fun, and if you were wondering there were quite a lot of laughs during the birthday party scene with the police officer stripper so I think they might have enjoyed the film. But yeah it was a great way to spend my second last night in Tokyo and I got to go to a cinema so I'm happy and yes I did a Chirashi poster of the film hehe

This is just straight up beautiful. As someone who has been pretty lonely throughout my life and also might a slight tendency to hoard (it's not like superbad it's just something I'm aware of) and have a little shopping addiction, that part of the movie really hit close to home I will it

The airplane screen did tell me that this was altered to fit a airplane screen so it's not the exact original so I might have to re-watch it (actually I do but cuz some of it confused me, might be because I been awake since 3:00 a.m. and travelling and had alcohol, doesn't take much to confuse me rn)

I did like the scene where all the victims suggested different ways for him to off himself, that was kind of funny. Very glad that I finally got to take this with my watch list cuz it's been there for a while

Pretty cool to rewatch, was solid movie I really dig the customer, oh my God those flowers in the hat just chef's kiss, I will say I don't entirely get the reason for why some of the frames Qantas decided to add the watermark to it, that kind of ruins the cinematic experience like sure copyright bla bla bla whatever but like bro calm down (but watching it on the plane is not like environment for like seeing something in the best way possible so.....)

Considering how it's Easter, I think about how the scene of Laura Palms murder always feels very religious in a way with the choice of music and just how brutal and ritualistic it is well as her death literally feeding the arm plus the actual religious symbolism of the angels (the ending scene of the angel being quite literally my favorite image of the entire series)
As well as her death representing the unraveling of Twin Peaks. Her death is the catalyst for everything

I feel like by now we all know how important this film is to me. It's just gut wrenching, horrifying and beautiful. I don't think I'll ever get over it

This was probably like one of the most immersive experiences I've had for a film, it felt like I was wobbling with the film (tho I have been working all day and went straight from work to the cinema and then had a alcoholic drink but I do think it was mostly the movie itself).

The animation itself was gorgeous I am obsessed with how it captures the feeling of a dream perfectly, it feels like the animation itself was like liquid if that makes sense

40 years later and the fact that the only real way of escaping all the capitalist bullshit is by day dreaming feels more relevant now.

I think Jill should have had a bit more personality tho but that might have been the whole point, she was the girl of his dreams




(P.s I personally think she should have been a butch lesbian but I think more characters should be butch lesbians so don't take this seriously okay)

I think the main reason why I've never bothered to watch the TV show is because I find the idea of vampires being in New Zealand of all places to be inherently hilarious and add on the fact that they all speaking with the Kiwi accent, just comedy there.
It becomes significantly less funny when it's in New York, there's a lot of American vampires, been there done that plus I've seen those New York subway videos, I think vampires being in New York is probably the least weirdest thing in that city

"Divine are you a lesbian"
"Yes I've done everything"

My fav dyke icon
I know I'm in a safe place when there's loud applause at Divine eating dog shit

Really nice to see it in 35mm tho because it's a old print, it unfortunately was censored but at least the dancing arsehole party scene was still allowed in, I don't know what I would do if it wasn't, it's just perfect okay (also totally unrelated I have a few ideas of what I might want for my 21st birthday party)

You know this is the stuff that dreams are made of and I don't mean that in a "I've achieved my life long dreams yay" way but actually in a "when you fall asleep and your brain makes weird fucking images" way.

Definitely feels like a live stream of Alejandro Jodorowsky's dream, he has some very interesting thoughts about religion and sex, really gorgeous film with some strange and bizarre imagery and some pretty interesting political points as well.

Don't ask me what it's about tho because you just have to watch it, like just sit down and watch it if you really need to know (you may not even completely know after watching it tho)

The the couple who like using food to "make love with" was one of the most funniest things I've ever witness, talk about a couple of food lovers.

It really was a very interesting film about how food is one of the universal experiences of being human and connecting with each other mainly because of the simple fact that we all have to eat.

Also I appreciate the little PSA on how to act in a cinema because I don't want to hear people's chip packets have some decorum and now I'm in the mood for some noodles

"See me"

I don't know how to feel about it, I'm deeply disturbed and grossed out but I also get it having been a very socially awkward kid and still somewhat socially awkward adult (tho much better now, I can now talk, some would say I never shut up)

Essentially it's about wanting to be seen and have a connection with another human especially when you spend your whole life struggling with making connections, so I relate to that aspect but stuff involving eyes freak me out a lot so that's not fun, usually don't get super freaked out by body horror but I can't do eyes no thank you, that's something that just gets under my skin.

Because I'm also a cinephile who loves Chappell Roan

"You're a pothead, you're a cinephile
It's been awhile since you turned up the dial" - Guilty Pleasure, one of my favs (all of her songs are my favs tho)

  • Mean Girls

    "Mean Girls, we watch it every night
    And we both have a crush on Regina George" - Naked In Manhattan

  • Mulholland Drive

    "Oh, I've never done it, let's make it cinematic
    Like that one sex scene that's in Mulholland Drive" - Naked In Manhattan

  • Pink Flamingos

    WARNING: If you aren't not familiar on what Pink Flamingos is about, please research it before you decied to watch it (especially of the content warnings) because while this film is very campy and funny (at least to me) it is very messed up and gross.

    She used the iconic image of Divine holding a gun in a pink dress in her lyric video teaser on Instagram for Good Luck, Babe

    Update: Chappell Roan paid a homage to Divine (RIP) by wearing a replica of the red dress shown in Pink Flamingos at one of her shows, it was amazing to see especially as I am a big fan of her and Divine. She also quoted the famous "Filth is my politics" monologue in her Instagram caption.

  • The Perks of Being a Wallflower

    ''With her arms out like an angel through the car sunroof"- Good Luck, Babe!
    I'm pretty sure is a reference to that scene in the movie

  • Muppets Most Wanted

    Chappell Roan made evil Kermit her tiktok profile picture after everyone said she kind of looked like him after her Gov Ball set

  • Female Trouble

    That interview where she's eating the lipstick low-key remind me of the drinking liquid eyeliner scene from Female Touble plus Chappell Roan has made references to Divine and I can see Divine's influence her drag
