King Fury 5/5. Just to short and didn´t the fast clipping of scenes come later?

I'm just hoping the ever effette Hemsworth is looking at Thor and thinking "Oh, he's supposed to be a man."

Knife in the Water - 4/10

Largely disappointing, given that Polanski's debut is acclaimed as an early masterpiece in some quarters. Impressive camera work and a nice jazz score don't fully compensate for the banality of the screenplay. I was expecting suspense but instead got a fairly unremarkable character study framed by an age old love triangle. The threat of violence is never real, so beyond a vague sense of claustrophobia and stagnation, any tension is dissipated.


Help me out here.
Polanski gets a free pass for his behaviour, but Mel Gibson gets a public flogging.
Am I crazy?
Or is the world crazy?

The world is more hypocritical today than it's ever been before...
 
Anywho, I just saw "Kung Fury"....maybe the most entertaining 30 min I've ever seen. An easy 9.6/10 rating from me.

One might argue that it was more hypocritical back then given the subject matter he tackled in "Repulsion" and his personal actions 12 years later.
 
 
I hope Kung Fury gets him financed for his next full length feature. Already sent my letter to the Academy for 2015's best short:wink:

I'm not sure whether you're implying I did wrong by posting about that film... Not condoning Polanski's actions, but surely we have to separate a person's public work from their private actions, otherwise we'd probably have to throw quite a lot of it away. For what it's worth, I think there are several reasons why Mel Gibson gets a public flogging and Polanski doesn't though: a/ he has a far bigger profile, b/ Polanski disappeared off the radar by fleeing to France and c/ a lot of people don't like him very much.

No, no, no!
Absolutely not!
I was not implying you did anything wrong.
Just commenting on Polanski.
You are not Polanski! Just commenting on Hollywood's everyday hypocrisy.
