I've been to several different performances of that piece.
ETA: I also have it on CD.
I rest my case.
There are enough people that fancy themselves as devotees of esoteric cinema, that someone thinks that a 30 day long movie is a sublime expression of artistic enlightenment. Either way, 6 people on earth (One of which is the director, and one other is his mother) will sincerely believe the film is good. A few thousand others will declare the movie a brilliant masterpiece, even though they have no clue what they just watched, or why they watched it. Then there will be largest group of people that watch it. Those that do so because they just want to brag that they have done it, or lost a bet.
No matter what, we already have the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit franchise. Why subject ourselves to another 30 days worth of story-line?
there are much more mainstream examples of just shit cinema that is critic bait. im convinced that critics feel the need to say they like various movies to prove they know more than the rest of us and are worthy of their salaries. you ever try to watch the tree of life? it was up for best picture a few years back, has a huge cast of stars, and its insufferable. yet its around 85% on rotten tomatoes cause its 'such a work of art' that you need a critics mind to understand. thats just the first to come to mind. im sure i could think of a ton more.
idk, i do a lot of reading about movies and listening to shows about them...im no savant but im pretty well informed and its annoying to be talked down to by some jerkoff who works for the av club or some other bs publication.
i have to be out of my place tomorrow for at least 3 hours, maybe 4 so i thought id kill some time and go to the movies. there isnt much im excited about so help me out. what should i see of these options?
jungle book-i think it might be weird to see that alone in a theater full of kids
hologram for the king-new tom hanks...i think im leaning towards this one
eye in the sky-seems based on a dumb moral dilemma.
those are the 3 that are playing at the time i need to be gone. i may just go be a bum and waste 3 hours at starbucks but what do you all think?

i wound up seeing jungle book. it was very good! great example of how a very cgi heavy movie can work well. the little boy was a great actor too. im happy this was my movie choice. thanks meme! 
We saw Barbershop 3 today. I didn't know what to expect because I didn't see Barbershop 1 or Barbershop 2 but it was ok. Tonight the cinema is showing Purple Rain and we are going. I haven't seen that movie since
the mid to late 80's. I think I saw it on either HBO or Showtime.

We saw Mothers Day yesterday. It was the 1 year anniversary of the opening our movie cinema. There's already plans for expanding. Maybe they'll have a re grand opening. Mothers Day was good. I'm taking my Mother next weekend.
I saw "Green Room" at the Alamo Friday night. I enjoyed it very much, on different levels.
Alamo runs 30 minutes of videos related to the movie before the previews, and they always out a lot of thought into them. They topped themselves with this one:
The video is highly relevant to "Green Room", and on top of that, the video was filmed at the Ritz Theater in Austin, which is now an Alamo Drafthouse.

Alamo gave all of the Victory club members a free ticket to see any movie last weekend. That's why I saw "Green Room".
Today they added a free pizza to my account for seeing "Green Room".
You can't beat that.
