rip!: a remix manifesto (2008)

rip!: a remix manifesto is a documentary about the changing concept of copyright. we all know everyone downloads shit illegally. it's not that big of a deal anymore. i haven't heard of anyone recently getting in trouble for downloading some song off a blog or something. the movie did a good job proving that the system is fucked up. the system that is copyright corporations such as RIAA and the movie one whatever it's called. i LOVED when they showed footage of lars ulrich talking about napster. he was such a little bitch about it.

i'm still here (2010)

when joaquin phoenix announced that he was going to retire from acting, i was pretty fucking shocked. then again, i think everyone was but i was one of the few who believed that it wasn't a joke. sadly, it was. i'm still here documents his year as an aspiring rapper. there was a lot of moments that you could tell it was a fake. i won't spoil it for everyone. overall, i really enjoyed this film. some moments were kind of disgusting but it made you laugh. you can rent it on itunes for 6 bucks.

fucked up film: crash (1996)

first off, this is not the academy award winning crash. this is david cronenberg softcore porn crash. now i'm usually not the kind of person who whines about how some movies have no plots cause i like gummo but this movie was really a waste of time unless you're really into car accidents and sex. the "plot" of this film is james (played by james spader) gets into a car accident and becomes obsessed with this underground culture of sex crazed car crashers. its fucking weird. there is this guy he meets who looks like bonehead from oasis. all he really wants to do is get into a huge crash and die. i guess the movie was trying to show the emptiness of how these idiots feel about risking their lives but is it a necessary movie to watch? not really.
