Jonathan Livingston Seagull

Lord of the Rings 78

Deathstalker series

Under the Cherry Moon

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

Kung Pow! Enter the Fist

whew, I own Lord of the Rings on blu-ray and even watched it on it's 1978 theatrical release... but I can't say it functions as a movie, especially the last fourth where it seems like they gave up and just put in the rotoscope reference footage in the print instead of animating to it.

Yes it's highly flawed and the second half is rushed, but it's a fascinating failure to me, I find the rotoscoping a charming incompetence.

music I'm afraid of Americans. I'm afraid of the world. music

I'm in the middle of a rotoscoping project myself: https://vimeo.com/532686510/e1414ad0fc

Under the Cherry Moon

Conan the Barbarian (1982, the one with Arnold Schwarzenegger....absolutely LOVE that movie!)

Bitter Moon....(I´ve watched this one countless times and still love it).

Wizards (by Ralph Bakshi....critics hated it but I really enjoy watching this every now and then).

Whenever this question gets asked, Speed Racer is always the first movie that comes to mind. The Wachowskis did an amazing job with this tribute to the TV series. The critics got it wrong.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton
