Doesn't there seem to be a lack of good films in the cinema these days?

Or even for that matter online, I mean recent stuff.

I encounter nothing I REALLY want to see.

Anyone else with this problem?

Nope. Because there's always TCM 24hrs/day with the one and only Robert Osborne.   :)

The movie "Drag me to hell" = pretty good if you want to enjoy a goofy and funny thing with nothing to offer your intellectual side 8)

Robert Downey stole the movie. Laughed my ass off. I would have chopped Ben Stiller's lines in half. He was just annoying.

What kind of movies do you like?

Debussey would think that many people like you (people preoccupied with intellectual pursuits) enjoys a good poop/piss - humor film once in a while to balance things off? :o

  I'm a horror buff, and the last films I saw in theaters were the Friday and Valentine remakes, and Drag Me To Hell. All sucked.

Pretty good movie.

But it helps stir up opposition to a wonderful thing, namely using genetics to enhance to humanoids.

The only people who are interested in such ideas are people whose own genetics are slag from the gene refinery. I wonder why that is?  ;)

These are fairly old and you may have seen them as they have cult status. These are two of my favs  by Jeunet and Caro:

Delicatessen and City of Lost Children (La ville des enfants perdue).

They have that fantastic Terry Gilliam art deco yet futuristic look about them that he has in both Brasil and 12 Monkeys.

Pedro Almodovar has also done some cracking films.
