Round One... Fight!
First time blogging. I hate the word "blog". Dwight's picks... GO!
1. Bottle Rocket v 32. Night of the Hunter
Never seen Night of the Cunter, but i researched it. It sounds really good. I like movies that are ahead of their time because the audience just isn't ready for it. I thought about voting for it without having seen it... BUT, Bottle Rocket has one of the funniest scenes in all movies. The one where luke and owen wilson are outside the building waiting for a cue. Luke is drawing in his book and flips through the pages to make a rough animation. Brilliant! That was way ahead of it's time too. Audiences are still watching it and trying to figure out how he made the characters move.
11. Kung Fu Hustle v 22. Buffalo 66
Too easy. I love the characters and pacing in Buffalo Shittysix... BUT, Kung Fu Hustle is my favorite movie of all time. The characters are awesome and so is the pacing. The only thing Kung Fu Hustle didn't have was buffalo.
13. Team America v 20. The Dark Crystal
Two words: Dark Crappal. I can't believe I just wrote that cause I don't believe that, BUT... no movie was more brilliant on the musical comedy side of things than Team America. Let's compare the music from these two movies. The Dark Crystal had flute-playing, dried up potatoes. Their gregorian chants did little to tickle my funny bone. In fact, I felt almost solemn and at peace. Not what one wants from a musical comedy. Meanwhile, little goobers are partying it up in a hole somewhere whilst falling into pots of soup... and THAT'S comedy?
Eleven Words: Durka Durka, I'm so wonewee, we need a montage, america...fuckya!
