Guess I'll have to take your word for it.

"What did the five fingers say to the face?"

Thumb resize.

"Slap!"

"Land of Mine" 7/10

A WW2 movie German people might actually like. Good, not great.


The directors next movie however could be pretty damn good.

"An epic set in post-WWII Japan and centered on an American former G.I. who joins the yakuza". Starring Jared Leto.

First time seeing? certainly a widely analyzed film. I had mine. I remember going into how there where two plane engines (off the plane) in existence at the same time.

What did you think was going on, big picture-wise, generally speaking?

Yes, first Time. To be honest I didn't really know what was going on. I did know the writer/director was only 23 years old when he wrote this...wow his mind is amazing. I had to look up the meaning and learn about Tangent universe. I dunno, it was okay. Now I can say I saw it.

Brilliant movie. It's smart, funny, entertaining,...
I recommend it.

Btw, the info on IMDB isn't really accurate.
"Adolf Hitler wakes up to find himself in the 21st century. From there he pursues a career as a standup comedian."
First part's true, second isn't.

If there's interest, we can start a Darko thread.

There's different opinions on what's really going on. I'm firmly entrenched in saying the film stands on it's own -- regardless of what even the author says. I found it to be like Jacob's Ladder... it's a dream wherein the dead person tries to make sense of their own absurd death.

The opening shows the engine crushes Donny to death, and he "dreams" this elaborate explanation (time travel) to give his death meaning. When this meaning satisfies him, (at the end) he smiles contently, and is crushed, & "moves on". Perhaps the whole dream experience occurs the half second before he dies "my life flashed before my eyes".

No question many things happening were surreal, which is not consistent with pure time-travel-loop.

Looks hilarious. If I can find an English dub, I'm in.
