After the first viewing, no I had no idea what was going on. But I think that's kind of the idea. It stayed with me for several days afterwards, and I just thought about it a lot. I saw it a second time, and things started falling into place. After the third time, I had reached some conclusions about what it was about.

A great deal of the appeal is the mind-bending surrealism and the lush Noir quality. It also explores a subject that absolutely fascinates me. (and I can't say I didn't enjoy the steamy lesbian scenes to a great degree :naughty: ) I actually am working on a write-up analysis for it for a website, I'll post it here when I'm finished.

If you're a fan of surrealism and dark, strange movies I recommend them strongly. Mulholland in particuluar, I find that movie to be a masterpiece. I didn't like Blue Velvet, because it was very..straight-forward. I don't like mysteries much, either. I recommend Eraserhead as well, but be prepared to come out of it feeling weird.

Cool I love se7en and Fight club I never really liked judith as a video.

Adam Jones is GOD 05-15-2005 02:39 PM

I think it gave the song its face. Its also a rare glimpse at MJK in a video.

That's actually the only part of the movie I've seen... (yeah, I know.) But I'm definitely interested.

And now that you mentioned surrealism, has anyone here ever seen Un Chien Andalou? It's a seventeen minute short film made in the 1920's, by Luis Bunel and Salvator Dali, and is one of the pinnacles of surrealism. I got the chance to see it at a rare (at the time) screening in NYC. Very amazing and strange. I highly suggest checking it out, now that it's available on DVD. It's opening minute is probably the most shocking in early cinema.

And Se7en and Fight Club were mentioned before. Both are amazing.

Erm...check what i just found...

- Sorry for not posting this sooner, but in a recent post by Blair, he reveals that a Tool US Mini Tour with the band ISIS is in the works:

geMINI + TAURUS = MIN(O)TAUR (See: GenISIS)

Further evidence to prove this is that Justin Chancellor recently played live with ISIS and they stated that "your two favorite 4-letter bands will be touring together." Check out the ISIS website, here. Stay tuned for more on this... -EyeChakra"

I knew there was something to be made of the end note, but since i have never heard of isis i had no cahnce :upset: You may have worked it out already but i just found it on this dudes tool site.

Did anyone know about tricky's (tricky=trip-hop artist...in the band massive attack) involvement in the parabola video?

(expects in chains to have an answer to this)

Rothmans 05-15-2005 02:57 PM

I wouldnt say it is trye but you never know.

clearvision 05-15-2005 03:00 PM

Well it's not set in stone or anything. but Blair put it there for a reason. And I haven't seen anymore suggestions...I may go surf the toolshed forums and see what they say on the matter...

I kind of like all those hidden messages and stuff. Good work.

And Tricky played the guy in the Parabola video who had those things coming out of his head. His little bouncy alien friend was killed by the floating orb.

And if someone wants to explain the symbolism in that video, I would love it.

The day someone figures it out, we're finished. I only get the Alex Grey CGI part, mainly as its one of his pieces of work animated.

clearvision 05-15-2005 03:10 PM

Back from my venture to toolshed...

Well all i got was crackheads talking about how the new album couold tie with the new harry potter book :rolleyes:

grrr crackheads...

Someone suggested that the tour wasn't Isis but VOLTO as Blair keeps tlaking about them, but he had no evidence except blair talks about them. And i can't see any logic to why it may be VOLTO and not Isis.

/Checks out Isis

//realises he doesn't live in US :upset:

Adam Jones is GOD 05-15-2005 03:11 PM

Yeah Rob, stop digging for this one. All you'll do is reveal a US mini tour for Tool, and how will that make us feel?

clearvision 05-15-2005 03:16 PM

True...

I'm just bored....and this ridiculous log equation is staring me in the face :(

Using : 2log (x + 2) + log x = log (13x + 6)

Show that : x³ + 4x² - 9x -6 = 0

/Hopes a knight in shining armour will come and solve his equation for him :upset:

Is this what it has come to? :upset:

Rothmans 05-15-2005 03:17 PM

I cant look at toolshed it just gets me too excited for the new tool album. I know sad :upset:

YIPEEEE!!!!!
I really like Isis, they're a really progressive metal type band. Kinda repetitive though, not sure how Tool fans will react, if this is even real.

I loved Panopticon.
I actually like that more than their other stuff...

Dancin' Man 05-15-2005 03:23 PM

If I could see both Isis and Tool in the same show, I'd blow my load all over the room. They better come east.

Rothmans 05-15-2005 03:23 PM

Oceanic is my favourite by far Panapticon didnt grab me like Oceanic did.

Hey, seeing how much you love Cowboy Bebop, I figured I might as well upload the first episode of Samurai Champloo for ya. It's done by the guy that did CB, so I think you'll like it.

Kage 05-15-2005 05:08 PM

Windows Media Player can play .avi's, but you have to have the right plug-in.
