    Films You've Seen Recently and Don't Know WTF to think

    They are basically the same film! Who ever thought Harmony Korine and Coppola's daughter would mind-meld? In all seriousness, I think she is one of the worst film-makers ever and should have been banned from any cinematic activity following her segment in New York Stories.

    Coffee

    Also the process is cool: you have one small chamber with a connecting tube to a larger, open chamber separated by a filter of some kind. You put the water in the bottom one and heat it. The air in the bottom chamber expands as it heats, and pushes the water up the tube and through the filter...

    Coffee

    Three advantages I can see so far: 1) Water never goes much further up than 75 C, which means there is little chance of overbrewing and resultant bitterness. 2) Resultant coffee is much hotter than you get from a filter setup. This is handy here as Mrs takes milk and is getting sick of cold...

    The Returned

    Scorsese's only good film since the 90s. Love when Marky Mark pops up again at the end and shoots Matt Damon in the face.

    Cassette tape sampling, splicing, cut up and collages

    I love Greg Wilson! His Credit to the Edit comps are well worth seeking out. My favourite is the extended Voodoo Ray.
