ivan Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 as good an excuse as any to go rewatch "amadeus" now, how actually does one translate into letters the awesome fucking laugh tom hulce used throughout that whole fuckign movie!? Quote
sobo Posted January 27, 2009 Author Posted January 27, 2009 That was a fucking cool laugh! My VCR of Amadeus sits in my "classics to watch over again" drawer, right next to Immortal Beloved. Quote
rmncwrtr Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Immortal Beloved...sigh. I love that one! Quote
ivan Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Immortal Beloved...sigh. I love that one! dunno - hard to score - while "immortal beloved" does have more high-quality full-titty nudity, "amadeus" certainly has a much higher quantity of soft-core, spilling out of ridicously tight clothing, titty going on, no? that and beethoven really was a prick, while mozart was kinda like a happy-go-lucky-rockstar-fuckup...

sobo Posted January 28, 2009 Author Posted January 28, 2009 ...that and beethoven really was a prick, while mozart was kinda like a happy-go-lucky-rockstar-fuckup... Ludwig had issues, to be sure. And Wolfgang was a party-boi, yes. But we're talking about the cinemagraphic merits of these films, not the lifestyles or peccadillos of their subjects, are we not? Quote

Immortal Beloved sucked. Terrible film. Quote
rmncwrtr Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 Well, I never paid much attention to the amount or quality of nudity in either films, but walked away thinking Mozart was a spoiled, talented twit while Beethoven was a genius. [video:youtube]W9KU3vik3mI Quote
ivan Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 But we're talking about the cinemagraphic merits of these films, not the lifestyles or peccadillos of their subjects, are we not? alright fine - but it kinda huuuurrrts to have to agree w/ KK - "immortal beloved" is kinda a crap movie, certainly pony loaf compared to "amadeus", which is a much more compelling story, but that one chick was wayyy hotter than anybody in "amadeus" Quote
sobo Posted January 28, 2009 Author Posted January 28, 2009 You mean Valeria Golino? This hawtie with a piece? Quote

ivan Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 this scene illustrates why amadeus excels in comparision - immortal beloved is way too frak'n serious - no real humour at all - inexcusable! Quote
ivan Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 253 years old today. Man, what an old fart, for dyin' so young... a survey of the wiki article you linked shows he wasn't all that young (35) for his death - 4 of his 6 kids didn't make it past 3 months for fuck's sake! Quote
sobo Posted January 28, 2009 Author Posted January 28, 2009 My sources tell me that even in the mid-18th century, 35 years of age was still a rather young age to expire. Unless you were hacking out a living on the North American frontier... Quote
ivan Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 the first rule of rock'n'roll coolness though is you gotta die young though, right? mick jagger seems to prove it more every year Quote
