This is a group to discuss your favorite cult classics and unknown films that should be cult classics. These films are often brilliant yet under appreciated, or on the other end of the spectrum are films that are so bad they're great.

Now in its 71st year, Batman has captivated and wowed audiences of all ages. Simple as that, it's one of the great comics, maybe the most compelling of heroes, and Christopher Nolan's film is another excellent piece of the legacy. Here's to it!

About Me:
So, as Boris Badenov would say, allow me to introduce myself. I'm Machohervey. My real name is Matthew. I'm 33 years old. My birthday was July 4th, 1976. I was born on Long Island, NY, and lived there until I was 23 except for a brief attempt at college, I'll get to that in a second. I attended Stewart Manor Elementary School and Sewanhaka High School which I graduated from in 1994. During this time I usually spent part of my summers in Kennebunkport Maine and often visited my mother's family in rural Westford and Tyngsborough, Massachusetts. I also spent some summers at Dortohy P. Flint 4-H Camp in Riverhead, NY. After graduating High school I took a year off before college. During this time I did an unpaid internship on The Maury Povich Show for the second half of 1994. For the first half of 1995 I worked at the Franklin Cinema as an usher until I left for college in September.

I lived in Yellow Springs Ohio attending Antioch College there for most of that year (1995-96). That summer I was volunteering for an organization called Farm Sanctuary in Watkin's Glenn, NY (yes it's an extreme animal rights group, no I'm not a vegetarian anymore) when my father found out that I didn't complete several classes and pressured me not to return. I returned to Long Island and lived with my mother who was now suffering from aphasia because of a stroke she'd had. I enrolled in Nassau Community College, but quickly dropped out. I worked for a while as a bank teller in Glen Oaks and then at the Roosevelt Field Mall. I got fired from that job in October of 1998, and feeling frustrated I got in my car and drove away in November. I headed west. My cousin and then my sister had moved to Seattle before me, so that was where I headed. I didn't know what I would do when I got there but I knew I wasn't coming back. My car broke down in Buffalo, Wyoming. AAA towed me to a mechanic who wouldn't fix the car, so I ended up abandoning it and taking a bus the rest of the way.

Here I am. I've been working for the same grocery store chain in one position or other (mostly bent over) for ten years, and guess what? I hate this fucking city. I want to get out of here worse than I ever wanted to leave Long Island.

My religious affiliation is "skeptic". I don't like some of what the word "atheist" implies, but that word does accurately describe me. I do not think the word "agnostic" describes me.

From my childhood on, I always wanted to make movies. It's what I was trying to study in college, although in retrospect I realize I should have tried to get into a more specialized school.

I have a top seven favorite bands.

The Monkees
TMBG
The Dead Milkmen
Camper Van Beethoven
Ween
XTC
The Beatles

I should also bring up Rhino's Nuggets compilations. I'm really into these. There are four 4-disc boxed sets and two stand alone CDs at this point.

I'm a single strait male. I've got two cat's and some really inconsiderate roommates. I've never been married and I've never been in a very serious relationship at all (and I've never knocked anybody up.) I don't take any drugs including weed, yes I did do these things when I was younger but not anymore. I drink, and I only smoke cigarettes when I'm drinking. I'm a Cancer. I don't believe in astrology, but the profile of Cancer is frighteningly accurate of me. I hate work and public places, going out at night and such. I prefer to be alone as often as possible and have always created elaborate fantasies that are better than real life. I'm actually kind of a jerk. I mean I'm bitter because I used to be a nice guy and got treated like dirt, so now I'm not very nice at all, but I still get treated the same way.

My heroes include Terry Gilliam, Peter Jackson, Dwayne McDuffie, Ben Edlund, Alan Moore, Peter Bagge and George Perez.


I can do it better.
My first pet snail was named Jack.

Sam Raimi: More Talented Than I.

This post is in response to ACOCO mentioning Sam Raimi when asked what directors they'd like to be in the place of. I agree with this choice especially, not just because he's a great film maker and innovator, not just because he made Evil frakin' Dead. It's also because of documentaries I've scene about him using clips from his amateur films he made with his friends when he was young. Seeing what they came up with from very little to work with just plain makes me jealous.

When I w… Continue

Animation through the years.

These are my thoughts on the animation LEOG episode.

In the beginning, as with most forms of expression, the work was very primitive. When sound came along in the thirties animation as well as stories told with it had improved vastly, but were still very simple.

The late thirties and all of the forties were the golden age of animation. I don't think there's much need to say anything about it since its pretty common knowledge that Disney, MGM, WB and Fleischer Studios were putting out cartoons… Continue

Allow me to introduce myself. (Why I'm going to the SPILL party.)

I first discovered Spill.com's youtube channel in December. I was looking for fan reviews of Punisher: War zone and I was very impressed with Spill's animated review and subscribed. I also went back and watched any of their youtube vids reviewing movies I'd seen.

When the Doctor Manhattan parody came out, I wanted to share it with some people on another message board only to find the youtube video had already been removed. So I went Googling for it only to find my way to the most obvious… Continue

I'm looking at this picture of Johnny Depp.

I'm looking at this picture of Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter in the upcoming picture Alice in Wonderland. It makes me feel sad and tired. I'm a little bit angry, but I'm so tired of being angry it's hard for me to keep this up. Why does this sort of thing have to happen so much? What does this have in common with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Sweeney Todd besides Johnny Depp starring in a film that desecrates something I grew up with? Well the initials are TB, and it… Continue

Classics ten years from now.

I'm listening to ACOCO right now, and their talking about what movies of this decade will be classics ten years from now.

Here are my thoughts:

I don't want to talk about the eras predating the seventies. The seventies was a renaissance. It was, in my opinion, the first decade of modern film. We did away with the “stage play” look with three walls and the stationary cameras. Acting, dialogue and cinematography become more organic, and in general films started looking like they still do today.… Continue

LOL no I was not thinking you were gay or a homophobe or anything like that LOL.
I was just stating I had gay friends that lived there a while back and it was fun times and it had been a while since I have been around that part of Seattle. Nothing more , nothing less.
I hope you really didn't think I was being insulting to you...

Ah ok I was wrong on where the bar was. It was on the corner of E olive way and Denny way.
There is a super cuts across the street from it.

Ah I have not been up there in a while.
I had a couple of gay friends that used to live up there a while back and owned that bar that was on the corner of 4th and denny. I used to run karaoke for them and they let me have free drinks.
It was fun, even though I am not gay I had to laugh at some of their friends that came in drag and sang show tunes.
But they where going for laughs anyways.
At 5:20am on June 13, 2009, RENEGADE™ said…
