 💯 Kubrick was THE master 
 Top 3 directors for me 🤝 
 Nice, you’re a 🐸 of fine taste. What’s your top 3? 
 Thank you ser 🐸

-Stanley Kubrick
-Lars Von Trier
-Quentin Tarantino
(Not in any particular order)


What’s your top 3 fren? 
 1) Kubrick
2) Scorsese 
3) PT Anderson 

Tarantino used to be on my list but he fell off a bit. Really enjoyed the Hateful 8 and Inglorious Basterds but too many misses in there. And Fincher used to be too but kinda went to shit. Cohen Brothers get an honorable mention for me.

I haven’t seen anything by Von Trier, what do you recommend? I mostly lost interest in movies maybe 5 years ago. 
 Cohen is definitely up there too. I saw a few from PT Anderson, I’ll have to watch some more. 

For Lars:
-Melancholia
-Breaking the waves
-The house that Jack built 
 TY I will check them out. My brother is a movie freak and has a nice projector setup I bet he will have a Blu-ray of at least one of those movies 😂

PT movies I find exceptional are: There Will Be Blood, Boogie Nights, Punch Drunk Love, and The Master. Inherent Vice is good and Magnolia is too but it’s a hard movie to watch. 
 Currently torrenting all his catalog 🏴‍☠️😂
I’ll keep that in mind for Magnolia 
 Man that’s going to be a fun film fest in the node residence 🫡 
 Yes it will. Very curious about his work 🫡 
 Moon landing was based! 
 I didn’t know there was apes on there…

 Space Odyssey had better sound and colors, but can we put a price on the network effect on that giant leap for mankind?
