I don't remember the ending of this being anything special. The ending of "One Night In Mongkok" was good. The ending to Blair Witch was memorable.
what? i saw bwp and i dont even remember that ending all i remember that this movie was one of the baddest ever, so ur opinion is kinda worthless to me , sorry
1. The vanishing (the og, not the crappy hollywood one) 2. miracle mile (la brea tar pits) 3. the last american virgin 4. the graduate 5. john carpenters the thing
dude magnolia is just robert altman's shortcuts with the over-saturated film school smugness knob turned up way past 10. that and shortcuts seemed liked it was actually about, you know, real people. boogies nights was cool and everything but paul thomas anderson is kinda the radiohead of film
I didn't wanna say anything since I thought I was the only one here that thinks that way (getting to be an unfortunate matter of course around here I'm afraid), but yeah. I liked Boogie Nights too (despite the mysterious and total absence of AIDS, even as a passing mention) , but Magnolia felt like the most pretentious, masturbatory piece of crap ever. Too bad, because the precredit sequence was pretty incredible and teased of promise and the last 15-20 minutes was interesting to say the least. Not that I made it all the way to the end the first time out. I finally caught the end on cable a couple years later, but Magnolia was one of the few flicks I walked out on - during the horrendous sequence where the entire cast abruptly breaks into song... "When will it stop?" I believe they were all singing? My thoughts exactly. Peh.
No doubt Magnolia is a very pretentious movie. But I still love it. I just thought there were some great characters. Quiz Show guy and the lonely cop and even Tom Cruise's charcter ("Tame the cunt!"). The frogs at the end was way out of left field but whatever. I guess it doesn't rank up there in the pantheons of classic cinema (or Star Wars) but that movie is perfect rainy-day viewing (and not as good as Boogie Nights).
Them Orson Welles/ Joseph Cotten films got some damn good endings too
-The Third Man (Best movie ever made IMO) -Citizen Kane
The Third Man is also one of my favorites. Joseph Cotten was a great actor. The recut verson of Touch of Evil is also a really good Wells movie. The studio really fucked up the origional version. The recut gets my vote for best film opening of all time. Although Chuck Heston as a Mexican cop is one of the most casting selections of all time.

oh, HELL yes!!!!
Absolutely one of the few instances of realism in a 1980's teen comedy. A real kick in the nuts....

Conquest is my all time fave Planet of the Apes flick. I actually saw it in the theater when it came out.

I like how you took what I said from a different post, and referenced that in this post.
Kudos.
