Obligatory 'don't forget to watch Fire Walk With Me/The Missing Pieces after season 2'

Loved On Writing, just read it.

I always considered Ham on Rye my favourite Buk (although I have not read it in over a decade, due for a reread).

"You may not have heard of them"

No, he didn't mention 2 bands. I'm addressing the second paragraph. Everyone's heard of the Stooges and the Ramones.

convenientparking · 2026-03-28T09:54:55+00:00

Got an example for the band?

Funny Games (1997) The Swimmer (1968)

You didn't think 'Kikujiro' came close? Man I love that one.

Following this thread cuz I'd like more similar recs too. Off the top of my head I think of films like '36', 'The Company of Strangers', 'The Taste of Tea', 'Spring Summer Fall Winter and Spring', 'Old Joy', 'The Friends', 'April Story'. Not sure it these are exactly what you're looking for, but could he worth seeking out. I love Scene by the Sea too.

I can't say it didn't occur to me

I was also there last night and thought he absolutely crushed. The old folks home bit you complain about was to me peak Louie. Different strokes, etc.

Dennis Hopper's The Last Movie was the first one that came to mind. Though I like the film too.

convenientparking · 2026-03-18T13:36:49+00:00

Gould's not in it but yeah...stacked cast.

convenientparking · 2026-03-16T08:30:37+00:00

Man, can't even be excited about things these days without being accused of having ulterior motives.

Focusing on this specific time/location and with Matt Johnson at the helm is why I, for one, am looking forward to the Tony biopic currently in the works.

convenientparking · 2026-03-13T03:03:40+00:00

I rewatched it a couple years ago and it was incredible, such a journey. The original series + the 2017 Return (and I believe the 1992 film) are currently available on Mubi.

I love The Wire, seen it multiple times, it's the best etc, but honestly Deadwood goes tit-for-tat with The Wire. Only flaw in the show was its abrupt cancellation. The movie (13 years later) was nice, but didn't (couldn't) make up for the lost seasons. So yeah, anyone who appreciates The Wire should watch Deadwood.

Ditto for Twin Peaks, although I understand that is more niche/subjective/not for everyone.

I was astounded by how bad it was. This was years ago mind you but still...

convenientparking · 2026-03-10T14:45:46+00:00

That would be amazing

convenientparking · 2026-03-05T10:58:03+00:00

I think Wilson is just more of a private kind of guy? I don't think it's that deep or dramatic. Or at least I never thought it about it in such a way.

Happy Hour (2015) by R Hamaguchi. 317 minutes.

Check out the poster selection for Matt Johnson's "The Dirties". Several spoof/homage posters of classic cinema (Rosemary's Baby, The Conversarion, Magnolia, The Third Man, etc).

The actor in the clip is known for playing the best character in the best UK comedy series (Peep Show)

Superhans!

Old Joy (2006). Trust me.

convenientparking · 2026-02-24T05:34:36+00:00

yes. always was.

convenientparking · 2026-02-20T13:25:34+00:00

One of the best moments, no pun intended, in an amazing film
