I've thought about watching <I>Koyaanisqatsi</I>, but I was a little let down after watching <I>Baraka</I> and figured it would just be more of the same.

Might be time to watch em again.<BR/><BR/>Amazing to think Oli produced Salvador and Platoon in the same year, eh?<BR/><BR/>And good to see the Koyaan soundtrack got particular mention. A bit of Philip adds a touch of glass, oops, I mean class to any situation...<BR/><BR/>And if you take Manz up on her "1960s" request, I'll slip Rosemary's Baby in the suggestion box... ;) <BR/><BR/>But hey, I'll leave it to the master...<BR/><BR/>Cool reviews man...<BR/><BR/>Keep em coming Wadrick...Decoy Spoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18194228349347820074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1654822324078318572.post-40919300975883439852009-03-18T09:47:00.000+11:002009-03-18T09:47:00.000+11:00Koyaanisqatsi is incredible!It's certainly not a f...<I>Koyaanisqatsi</I> is incredible!<BR/><BR/>It's certainly not a film for any movie fan looking for entertainment designed to escape our everyday lives. I think it's more for "visual" types who love great imagery... and anyone who wants to pause and take notice to what humanity has designed for ourselves. <BR/><BR/><I>Salvador</I> is sitting on the DVD shelf here and I've never bothered watching it. Your review has me wondering why.<BR/><BR/>And I remember enjoying <I>Midnight Run</I> and having a few laughs... but I don't remember the film all that well. I think that it's time to re-visit that one.<BR/><BR/>Wadrick... I'd love to see a review on <I>They Shoot Horses, Don't They?"</I>. Any chance you could do a 1960s week?Manzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07138779660585387695noreply@blogger.com
