i haven't seen all of the remake of funny games- but after watching the first 25 min or so it did seem shot-for-shot. haneke is so fantastic, either way.
and your list was great meat- gives me quite a few movies to check out...I think jacob's ladder and oldboy both belong at :wtf: :wtf: though, perhaps dark city as well.
antichrist was more ed up than just :wtf: :wtf: too, in my opinion.
hooray for gozu though. :)

Srsly?! Then it surely is the most pointless movie of all time, why the heck would they do that?

I don't know

Of course, this begs the question, why remake it at all? Haneke is directing it, so it might amount to a second-chance to clear up some mistakes on his end. That and I guess we can't deal with subtitles.

2. I think it was mostly the remote control scene that did it for me. And the dark humor that is so completely out of place sometimes that I was like "wtf is wrong with this movie?" all the time.
Hahaha, that was so weird :stongue:

I just saw one that is going down in the books. The more I read about this directors previous films, the more I see he is really fuked up!
I just saw 'Enter The Void' by Gaspar Noe. It is insanely long, pornographic, heavy, and they do just about any drug imaginable (DMT, LSD, Coke, E etc...)
The whole movie is told in the perspective of the brother - even after he dies. You see important moments that happened in his life with his sister. It's a very shakey cam - reminds me of Prodigy - Smack My Bitch Up.
SUPER DUPER LONG. When he dies he basically floats around (takes way too long to float from one place to another) - little dialogue in the movie. Since he can't really talk after he's dead - he is just witnessing what is going on after he dies.
Noe's got other movies where 1 guy from Daft Punk made the soundtrack but all his movies are weird (like a guy fuks his autistic daughter).
BUT.. It's unique, different and I liked it. OO and if you have epilepsy - don't watch any of his movies.
damn you... :whip: watched that movie.. ing hard core... I enjoyed it but it was just ed up, like you said.
BTW, hate to burst your bubble but it wasn't that original - irreversible used similar concept and if you can manage the first 10 minutes of it, rest is a very ing good movie. Also, the whole "SMBU" perspective is cool but sometimes annoying - like I sat there wanting to raise my head so I could see more but obviously, it's a trick. ;)
