I was sick of boring clubs, and I thought exclusion and bitter attitudes could spice up the "club scene" here on cB. So, I decided to make a club for Film Snobs. This is a place for cinephilia, in the best and worst ways. If you like movies, and you think you like good movies, you may want to apply here. But, I'm not going to be easy on you guys, I hate most of your taste. Give me crap, and I'll give it right back. Those of you who don't completely suck will be accepted into our cute little bullshit corner and will then become judge and jury in deciding whether or not future applicants should be allowed into our little circle. So, here is all you have to do, post a Top 20 list. Twenty movies that you think reflect your distinct taste and interest in cinema. If I like it, you're in. If I'm not sure, I may ask you a few questions. If I hate it, I'll ignore you or throw up.
As a club, we will discuss film, recommend work, and pretend we have status when we truly do not. Knowledge is power, f**kers. Exclusive clubs rule. No Nates. [New new new list v.8] 1. Blair Witch Project, The (Daniel Myrick & Eduardo Sanchez, 1999) 2. Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me (David Lynch, 1992) 3. Possession (Andrzej Zulawski, 1981) 4. Videodrome (David Cronenberg, 1983) 5. Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One (William Greaves, 1968) 6. Blue Velvet (David Lynch, 1986) 7. Week End (Jean-Luc Godard, 1967) 8. Hour of the Wolf, The (Ingmar Bergman, 1968) 9. Juliet of the Spirits (Federico Fellini, 1965) 10. Thin Blue Line, The (Errol Morris, 1988) 11. Iron Rose, The (Jean Rollin, 1973) 12. Lickerish Quartet, The (Radley Metzger, 1970) 13. Stalker (Andrei Tarkovsky, 1979) 14. Gummo (Harmony Korine, 1997) 15. Straw Dogs (Sam Peckinpah, 1971) 16. Two-Lane Blacktop (Monte Hellman, 1971) 17. A Nightmare on Elm Street (Wes Craven, 1984) 18. F for Fake (Orson Welles, 1974) 19. Beyond The Valley of the Dolls (Russ Meyer, 1970) 20. Magnifique, Le (Philippe de Broca, 1973) So, who wants to join? Let's see those Top 20 lists! [members] 1.
