'Mulholland Drive' is a US film, I think. Not having seen it, I couldn't really say for certain.

Yep - American. Directed by David Lynch. One of Naomi Watts first big roles.

Although, er, I haven't seen it.

Hmmm, American Psycho - was it real or was it his imagination? And do we care so long as Christian Bale is naked?

I watched Donnie Darko when it was on a few weeks ago. On the surface it looks like

Select to view spoiler:


"odd boy develops strange powers and kills self earlier in time at the end of the movie to save the girl he loves"

but there's more to it than that. And any movie that requires you to listen closely to the director's commentary and work through the official website to work out what it's really all about is a bit too much, if you ask me.

When it was on TV, did they show the regular version or the Director's Cut? I've only seen the original so far, although I have bought the DC (pretty flashy holographic cover and all) but haven't got round to watching it yet.

The supposed official version is horrifically complicated, and I'll put it in as a spoiler thingy for those who've not seen the film yet:

Select to view spoiler:


An inexplicable event (the jet engine falling from nowhere) causes a corruption that will destroy the universe unless the Living Receiver (Donnie) controls the powers he now has and is successfully convinced by Dead Manipulators (eg dead rabbit Frank), Living Manipulators (pretty much everyone else from the science teacher to his friends) and by events to explain the inexplicable event, in this case by creating a wormhole to take the engine off the plane his family is on and send it back through time to justify it's earlier appearance. He is ultimately convinced to do so by the fact that the chain of events throughout the movie, many of which were instigated by Donnie himself, lead to him meeting the girl he comes to love and then to her death, and that by changing things, and perhaps by killing himself too, he can stop her death from happening.

All this Living Receiver/Manipulator/wormhole stuff comes from the 'Philosophy Of Time Travel' book Donnie is given by the science teacher, which is not real, of course, but can be heard being talked about in the commentary and read about on the official website.

The post office closes at noon? That's pants!
(did I use pants correctly?)


My kooky cousin, yes I have kooky relatives, is arriving today. I haven’t seen her in prolly five or six years...not including funerals. The last time I spent any time with her she was moving to New Orleans. Don't worry, she has since moved back to her native California. So, what should I do with her tonight? What if she's not kooky anymore? She's about nine months younger than me, so when we were younger and both living in California, we did everything together. But time and growing can change even the best of cousins....argh, ideas?


Maybe I'll just feed her chocolate and vodka and tape her to a chair to watch Firefly.




fyi: the sweet potato pie was a HUGE hit. The pies were gone before I knew it. In fact, some of my coworkers have asked me to make some for them. I love cooking; it's the transportation of goods that I hate.

Very weird. I've got better things to do than sit through such a tangled mess of a story. Maybe that's why I've seen none of these films, and have even heard of maybe one of them: I'm very picky about what I'll spend time watching, and generally have to be convinced ahead of time before I'll give something a chance. People rave about some film or TV show, and when I hear what it's about I rate it 'meh.' I don't bother to turn the box on for 'meh.'

Given that noone really seems to understand Donnie Darko I think you're quite safe avoiding spoilers - will all be pure speculation! Oh, apart from the bit where....

Anyhoo, back to Mulholland Drive. Assuming that's where we're supposed to be of course.

The thing is, almost all of it is never explained. Frank never really is, the powers aren't, what the 'Philosophy Of Time Travel' actually says is not made clear or even really mentioned. But you can see the chain of events, how each thing that happens and each thing Donnie does leads to the final step. It's only a mess when you try and add in the extra detail, though once it is added you go "huh... okay" and then, y'know, get on with your life.

It's interesting, like those really deep articles in the magazine 'New Scientist', but you don't really get what it all means and don't feel compelled to try harder.

TWG - to be fair to the Post Office, they actually close at 12.30 - which is soooooo much better. And yes, congrats on the correct use of "pants"!

(OK, "funny" (sad?) story - I shall confess to watching a (pretty poor) pirate of The Phantom Menace before the film came out. Anyhow, you know the bit near the end when ickle Anakin is in the fighter? Well I could have sworn he said "This is pants!" Turns out it was "intense"...Anyway, the moral is, don't watch pirate movies! Or The Phantom Menace (although I actually don't mind it personally)).

If that is my ticket, Sean Harry owes me £1.21!! Or access to the Meet & Greet. I'd settle for that!!

Second, I have an unwatched pirate vid of The Phantom Menace somewhere; the first minute or two put me off as the badly-filmed-in-a-cinema quality of it was just awful.

Mulholland Drive: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0166924/

The term "pants" in the English vernacular is akin to "sucks" in the American.
A more explosive and stronger exortation is "Knickers" which has some very satisfying hard consonants.
Usage: Pants: "oh no, I don't want to watch Hollyoaks, its pants"
Knickers: (hits thumb with hammer) "S&*t, f*&k, knickers!"

The more we understand each others' idioms and swearwords, the more hormonious will be our relations.

Pants is a great word (i.e. underpants or rubbish for non-Brits). If you doubt me, check out how vastly improved the following lines from Star Wars are by the simple substitution of one word with the word 'pants':

"I find your lack of pants disturbing." - Darth Vader

"These pants are now the ultimate power in the Universe. I suggest we use them." - Motti

"Governor Tarkin, I should have expected to find you holding Vader's leash. I recognized your foul pants when I was brought on board." - Leia

"Lock the door." - Luke "And hope they don't have pants." - Han

"You came in those pants? You're braver than I thought." - Leia

"Uh...Threepio, hand me those pants there will you? Okay. Now, I'm going to put these on you . . . Okay. Han, you put these on." - Luke

"With the pants down, I can't see a thing, how am I supposed to fight?" - Luke

"Jabba's through with you. He has no time for smugglers who drop their pants at the first sign of an Imperial Cruiser." - Greedo

"He suggests that if you remove his pants, he might be able to play back the entire recording." - Threepio

There's still that one line in Safe that I can't figure out. It's when Mal et al are rescuing Simon and River from being burned at the stake after the "She's our witch. Cut her the hell down." line. Mall turns to Simon and says something but I can never understand it and whoever did the subtitles couldn't understand it either because it shows it as "incoherent mumbling" or somesuch.

So today I'm wearing pants...and pants? Well, I might not be wearing pants, but I'm definitely wearing pants. Unless I'm not. And actually, I'm not wearing pants either, I'm wearing a skirt. But I'm definitely wearing pants. I think.

Are pants specifically male or female or both?

But I don't like to use the word trousers. It sounds so...tweedy. And I HATE slacks. It's not a pretty word. Such a harsh A. So I usually refer to them by what they are. Jeans, cords, khakis, cargos.

okay, i understand most of the people here live in the south of england.
i am about to make a statement based upon personal experience which i am prepared to be corrected upon by anyone who thinks i am incorrect, i may well be.

The use of pants as a word for underpants is not an overly big thing here in the north! and pants do kind of refer to overgarments on ones legs for male or female (and not exclusively superheros whith a superman dress sense) Undergarments can be one of the following: boxers, y'ees (or y fronts), knickers or those string things (yes, i know they're called thongs) i may have missed summat out, but ...

now, i personally do use the word pants as both a swear word and as a descriptive word, but not overly regularly.

anyhow!
