Big fan of Paul Thomas Anderson. One of the last great American film directors. His latest currently sits at 100% Rotten Tomatoes.

Licorice Pizza | Rotten Tomatoes

LICORICE PIZZA is the story of Alana Kane and Gary Valentine growing up, running around and falling in love in the San Fernando Valley, 1973. Written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, the film tracks the treacherous navigation of first love.

Can’t wait to watch it here in the Netherlands in January.

Is this that movie about nerds falling in love?

 

[Maiden Voyage]

I'm still a bit shocked one of the sisters from Haim is in this. It looks cool so I'll give it a watch once it's available for home viewing.

I see new PTA trailer. I click. Very interesting. I was enamored with Phantom Thread and after almost completing his filmography (lacking The Master and Inherent Vice), agree that he is indeed a GREAT film director.

 

[AJUMP23]

This is a rental.

 

[The Cockatrice]

Looks boring.

Some good cast members, score by Jonny from Radiohead, sure, why not.

I do like Paul Thomas Anderson. I’m torn as to which is my favorite: Magnolia, or SNL: The Best of Molly Shannon.

leaning towards Magnolia.

For the longest time, i thought Event Horizon Was a Paul Thomas Anderson film. (the credit in that movie was just Paul Anderson) but it was Paul WS Anderson. Anyone ever get him mixed up with WeS Anderson?

I think Anderson wanted fresh faces for the leads and he has been working as director for most HAIM videos. It’s indeed still bizarre.

You’re not missing much. As the biggest PTA fanboy, those are my least favourite films from him. They look lush as always but they’re too long and need editing.

Magnolia is my favourite film from the 90s. I became an Anderson worshipper after watching it on release. Made me watch everything by Robert Altman as well.

Nice. I had no clue.

Yes! I loved The Player, that’s my favorite Altman film by far.

Been really looking forward to this. Unfortunately it’s not coming out until January here in the U.K.

I was shocked for half a second but they have a lot of money and live in LA. Seems like they have connections.

Such a good track and video. Anderson must have so much fun directing these 3.

Have you seen this one?

Super simple with gorgeous tracking shots. Anderson brings elegance to everything.

I'm a big fan of licorice and a big fan of pizza.

 

[Termite]

Love this guy as a director but Phantom Thread was shit - aside from Jonny's amazing score. I wanted to wretch every time DDL said "my old so-and-so". Skin-crawling movie.

Hope this is a return to form.

 

[jonnyp]

Haven't enjoyed any of his films after Punch Drunk Love and this just looks boring.

 

[SantaC]

Isnt this director on par with Uwe Boll?

 

[EviLore]

From Youtube:

The lyrics are synced to the trailer:

00:06 "To the girl with the mousy hair”
00:14 "And her daddy has told her to go”
00:25 "To the seat with the clearest view”
00:53 "She could spit in the eyes of fools”
01:14 "Oh man, look at those cavemen go”
01:26 "Take a look at the lawman”
01:29 "Beating up the wrong guy"

You are thinking of Paul WS Anderson (husband of Milla Jovovich and director of many Resident Evil movies).
And he is still better than Uwe boll (thought not as entertaining in real life).

There will be blood is one of my favorite films wanna see more like that one

DDL is a god among men.

 

[Winter John]

I always wanted to meet this guy just to thank him for making the greatest fuck movie of all time. That man is a genius. Every time I was dating a girl I'd put Boogie Nights on. It never failed.

 

[teezzy]

Looks way better than whatever the heck contrived garbo Wes Anderson is pushing currently

This I'd actually watch

The more time passes the more we all realize TWBB is cementing itself has one of the greatest American films ever made. Every time I see it the more it impresses me. It has that Kubrick timelessness to it. Completely hypotonic film and that Jonny soundtrack…
