I really like this movie. When I 1st saw it, I thought it was too long. But after repeated viewings late nite on cable I have realized it is NOT too long, it's just brilliant.

I haven't seen it yet. But I downloaded Dave Grohls cover of "Tiny Dancer" that he performed on Kilborn, and he pauses several times in the song to talk about this movie and how much he likes it. It's hilarious, download it on kazaaa if you get a chance.

Favorite movie of all time (after the Wizard of Oz).

"Untitled" is the dvd release version.

The director's commentary is awesome because Cameron is commenting while his mom is there also making comments.

I LOVE this film smile The "untitled" version is waaay better smile

Cameron Crowe is the best!!! I just love all his work.. Fast Times, Say Anything, Singles, ect...

Fast Times might have the BEST dvd commentary track ever! smile I think Cameron is the best at doing them!

Yeah! Good film! Ive got the 'Untitled' Special Edition DVD, was quite chuffed when I managed 2 track down a copy.

My fave movie EVER is his 'Vanilla Sky' - that just blew my mind. (Great commentary on that 2 - he just decides mid way thru 2 ring Tom Cruise up...)

What I like about Camron crow is that u can see his movies on so many different levels - their structure is never really tied up, always leaves the interpretation up 2 u.

That's why I fell in love with Vanilla Sky - becuase u can come up with your own hypothesis on what happens in it.

God, listen 2 me! I sound like a film school major!

I agree 100%. Good art (IMO) is something you can see, watch, listen to and hear something you missed the first three times. Vanilla Sky taught me about myself. I guess now I should see the original. lol

One of my faves too. Love the Untitled version. Especially cuing up Stairway to Heaven on my CD player while watching the deleted scene that was supposed to be William trying to convince his mom to let him go on the road with Stillwater. That scene cracks me up every time.

LOL, I initially thought this thread was giving praise to the LumIdee CD of the same name.
