Prefer the original That's It That's All. That film was such a fresh break in the snowboard video industry on release.
This just doesn't feel like much of a progression to from it.

Ah right, due to it's naming I didn't find it on my search.

One of the best and most original takes I've seen on the superhero genre and verite style in a long time.

What a fantastic documentary and what a great man. Can't say it better than csschneider.

Easily in my top 5 from 2011.

It's named after the song which features prominently in the film.

Wiki
quote:
"Aquarela do Brasil" (English: Watercolor of Brazil), known in the English-speaking world simply as "Brazil", is one of the most famous Brazilian songs of all time, written by Ary Barroso in 1939.

Some background

"You're probably wondering why this movies is as popular as it is.One reason is the cast.Many of them go on to become cinema icons in Turkey.Non turks would probably scratch their heads and wonder what the joke is, but there probably isn't a single Turk who doesn't find this movie funny, also you wont find a Turk who hasn't watched it at least twenty or more times,there are not many comedy movies that this can be said about.Start whistling the theme music and every Turk would know which movie it is from.It is a movie much loved and well deserved of its accolades.This movie was a career launching pad for many actors including Kemal Sunal(regarded as a comedy legend),Tarik Akan(back in the 70's regarded as Turkeys answer to John Travolta),Sener Sen(a true comedy pioneer)and many others.There aren't many movies that evoke such a sense of nostalgia as this .Do yourself a favor and watch this movie, you might get a laugh or two."

Great film, I see that the whole ambience of the film would be difficult for non brits to understand.

quote:
'Delicacies of Molten Horror Synapse (1991)' was described as follows by its creator: "The primary "Molten Horror" is TV - though there are other horrors metaphored in the film. Four superimposed rolls of hand-painted and bi-packed television negative imagery are edited so as to approximate the hypnagogic process whereby the optic nerves resist grotesque infusions of luminescent light." Before you all scramble for a dictionary, the word "hypnagogic" means "of or pertaining to drowsiness." With this in mind, the film does do a fair job of recreating those hazy seconds before one falls asleep before a television, an indistinct garble of flickering lights and shadows, their incomprehensibility an open invitation to surrender to one's fatigue.

The youtube compression really destroys any potential effect this short should have.

Fantatsic, exactly what a feel-good short film should be.

I actually thought the lens flare was very refrained.

There were some scenes at the start particularly when first arriving at the train station where it was far too heavy. But, after that I never noticed them again.

Fantastic! Reminiscent of Speilberg in his prime.

Fantastic documentary for the hip hop head with many many well known faces of the golden ERA appaering.

Also a great educator for those who don't "get" hip hop as a music form or it's culture.

9.5/10

A one off or yearly fee works be fine by me.

Yeah it is quite ridiculous. Especially having the individual episodes as checks.

It's not like imdb's single tv list is note worthy either.

I'd definitely recommend it, fantastic revenge flick.
Beautifully shot and scored. With some moments of dark comedy

Though if you haven't seen many other films in this genre you may come out with similar views to Masch Man.

To dumb it down to an empire-esque tagline "If you loved Oldboy you'll love this!!!"

Yet Cannibal Holocaust is one of your favourites Alfredo. :s

I didn't think it was that horrific. It was far more mental imagery than real violence.

Beautiful film. Get out and see the remaster at the cinema if you can. Is well worth it.

Great short. If you don't see it in 3d I don't think you'll appreciate it at all though.

Melier's is pretty much the father of modern effects. He actually use to be a successful magician before turning to film making.

O, god I can't believe I've made 5 posts on here. :p Really need edit and delete comments.

Anyway I see the difference now it seems the "chart" weeds out the films just voted 10. However, the top link on the chart below seems way better than the "chart" even though they should really be the same thing.
