Imaginarium of Doc. Parnassus

[lenko]

just came back from it. holy shit i've never been blown away so much by a movie visually. there's SO much creative shit in this movie that it's hard to take it all in at once. it kinda sags a little in the middle (where there's a distinct lack of the actual imaginarium) but wow I've never enjoyed something so much in a long long time. The concept is genius and I honestly didn't want it to end where it did

Also tom waits is a fucking AWESOME devil

[Casey Pixmintro]

god damnit dont remind me.
fuck hollywood and its constant abuse of terry gilliam. LET THE MAN HAVE ONE SUCCESSFUL FILM IN HIS LIFETIME GOD DAMNIT.

hollywood can go die in a pit of festering maggots if this film doesnt make a gazillion dollars

[jjjjjjjjjj]

just came back from watching it
it was visually imaginative and fucking awesome to watch
but verne troyer is a really bad actor

for some reason the idea of the film seems like it mirrors terry giliams life

its a great film overall im glad i watched it, pretty funny how they covered up the parts where heath ledger was replaced with johnny depp

Saw it today and it was a great film. It made a lot of sense and the acting was very good. I only hated the girl (or just her character maybe) seriously she pissed me off so much and Dr. Parnassus was always trying so HARD >: C even the Devil was like "whoa what a bitch". The end does have a serious twist that made me go "AHHH NOOO!!! WHAATT!?" which is why I loved it heh. The movie as a whole also reminded me of Baron Munchausen with the fantasy and surreal worlds inside the Imaginarium so that was cool.  

I have to admit though that the common movie goer will HATE this kind of film because it's so unique, it requires the viewer to actually think (like it's not all laid out for you.), and the dialogue gives you a lot to process that if you are not paying attention to it you don't understand what's actually happening. Small example (non spoiler).....A criminal goes into the Imaginarium, he is faced with two choices: 1. become a policeman but get to be as violent/cruel as you wanted to be (in the name of justice) or 2. Become a momma's boy and get treated like royalty and love for eternity but never make something of yourself. One of the choices leads to death and the devil gets your soul, the other is a blissful euphoric experience and you walk out scot free from the Imaginarium haha! But If you don't actually follow the movie through, all you watch is a screaming man in a field getting a musical of policemen with batons can-can dancing in a floating stone head and a fat Russian lady on the other side calling from a Thomas Kinkaid cottage asking for you to go under her skirt to safety. Oh yeah and later the lady explodes and pulls her head off and there's a little man with levers controlling it HAHAHA! Did I mention it was a great film?

I also loved the whole concept of Fate the conman. His words are so convincing you can't resist it thus making it your fate (good or bad), but it's always with his own prize or benefit as a result. This is why the Devil gets so mad later on in the movie...because "Fate was on Dr. Parnassus's side" as long as it benefited Fate more.
