It's memorable segment though with actually having a bit of intensity with the "die die everybody die" portion, and the end result is rather hilarious.<br /><br />Hungry are the Damned - More overtly comedic, and that's just fine. Referencing the Twlight Zone is usually a good thing for the segments and that is the case here having some great moments throughout particularly the pride the aliens have over Pong, and then their disgust over the misunderstanding of the cookbook with a large amount of space dust on it.<br /><br />The Raven - Well great narration however I don't particularly love the segment. It doesn't balance well going straight or directly into telling the poem. It sorta does tell it straight most of the time making the little asides not work all that well, and most of the gags not really working. Still overall not a bad segment. <br /><br />Calvin:<br /><br />Love the episode, but hey I love every episode to be honest. This is a particularly good one though. As usual Lynch giving it all so brilliantly. Having such genuine moments there between Bobby, Shelly and Becky with only the best support from old Carl, I especially love his Legend of Zelda method of calling his transport. Then there is the screaming woman scene that could only be brought by Lynch that starts out hilarious with the woman's complaints, becomes horrifying with the little girl, then hilarious again as the woman makes the same scream again and again. <br /><br />The best part though for me would be Mitchum brothers scenes that are just sheer delight from beginning to end with both being so funny in first their anticipation of killing Dougie, then their exuberance with what happens later. The cherry pie scene though is something magical though particularly due Badalamenti's score.Louis Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07933180959140340196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-48472954930456675972017-10-09T12:53:30.381-04:002017-10-09T12:53:30.381-04:00I dont know if I could give a top 5 because they w...I dont know if I could give a top 5 because they would be Rock or Metal and most bands have terrible videos that consist of them playing in a garage or a darkly lit room lol.<br /><br />I would say Weezer and OK Go do excellent videos.RatedRStarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11628534290463165790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-70779545006333301262017-10-09T12:51:34.805-04:002017-10-09T12:51:34.805-04:00I am just sat here nervously waiting for the pre s...I am just sat here nervously waiting for the pre screen reviews of The Snowman which will happen sometime before this Friday, with my fingers crossed hoping that it gets good reviews =D.RatedRStarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11628534290463165790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457552600380761837.post-36937569176718734042017-10-09T11:30:14.406-04:002017-10-09T11:30:14.406-04:00Mr Brightside.

It had absolutely everything: Wacky and strange occurences on the FBI side of things, Shelly and Bobby, Carl Rodd being awesome, weird accidents happening, Bushnell being the best boss, and the final 20 minutes or so with the Mitchum brothers in the desert (almost like a humorous Se7en), 'Mr Jackpots' and the Cherry Pie was so heartwarming.

You instantly think of the film from a single whistle of the reeds from the intro, as well as think of the western genre itself. The song though is more than that even with such a powerful build as it introduces the electric guitar and grand vocals, supplemented by the horns to create such a rousing introduction to the masterpiece. <br /><br />94dk1:<br /><br />I'd say Christopher Walken, and Diane Keaton.

I wouldn't quite classify her as the "one to beat" even for my own personal choice since I haven't seen the performances of Streep, Hawkins, McDormand, Ronan, Robbie, Chastain or some other potential dark horse candidate. <br /><br />I will say in terms of Oscar potential she has a chance to win, it could have even been a done deal if she had not won last year, given that she has the praise, and the fact that she plays a real life inspirational figure is always a boon. Consecutive winners, though they do happen, don't happen often so I wouldn't bet on it. It also doesn't help that the film has under performed at the box office, the film probably should have been released in December in order to build their marketing on awards buzz. I would be surprised if she is not nominated though.
