Deep Wang Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 I got behind on posting my haikus, but then I realized who cares? I'm putting those on twitter, Facebook, and Letterboxd, so whatever. I decided to update the first post with what I have actually seen and the score I give it. If anyone one like me to go into more detail I would be more than happy too. Today doesn't look that interesting except for the midnighter, Cheap Thrills, which has been getting good buzz. I'm sure I'll fill in the gaps with some stuff, just don't know what yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deep Wang Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Holy shit! I saw Cheap Thrill last night and it blew me the fuck away! I think everyone needs to watch it, but do yourself a favor and don't read too much about it before hand. It's one of those movies you want to go into as fresh as possible because, FUCK, it's so good! Anyway, I'm finally doing Your'e Next tonight.

Deep Wang Posted March 14, 2013 Author Share Posted March 14, 2013 Ok. I'm in the line for You're Next. Hulk is in the line right next to me, but he is talking with some of his peers so I don't want to bug him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deep Wang Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 DID YOU SAY ANYTHING? I met him last year, but I hadn't seen him at all this year until then. He was talking to Renn from CHUD and a couple of other guys so I wasn't going to pester him. I turned around for a split second and he was gone! Then once I take my seat, I see him again in the middle of the theater! He's so fast! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deep Wang Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Spring Breakers was pretty crazy, but it loses steam about halfway through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deep Wang Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Seeing it tomorrow. Is it worth it just for Franco?He isn't in it enough for me to say that. But he has a scene where he's playing piano with the girls and it was hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acsc1312 Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 For some reason I though SXSW had already happened. I would've tried to go since it's close. Maybe next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deep Wang Posted March 16, 2013 Author Share Posted March 16, 2013 Im suprised evil dead is so low on your list It's not the next coming. It's good at what it does, but I've seen the original and it doesn't do enough to stand on it's own. I'm more interested to see where they take it in part 2.
